Winnipeg Jets Morning Papers

Note: The Jets, Moose and Ice are all in offseason mode but is there really ever an offseason? If there is any news we will have it for you here.

Jets news:

Global News: Lots of off-season work for Jets with draft looming. The next month is going to be fascinating.

Winnipeg Sports Talk: Dave Poulin on the Jets to do list this off-season & latest trade rumours. Andrew “Hustler” Paterson is joined by TSN’s Dave Poulin on Winnipeg Sports Talk Daily. They discussed the upcoming Winnipeg Jets off-season, GM Kevin Cheveldayoff’s to do list and the trade rumors surrounding the team.

Jets prospect news:

Illegal Curve: A busy 2022-23 season concludes for Brad Lambert. From the draft nearly a year ago to his elimination from the Memorial Cup Final a few days ago it has been an incredibly busy campaign for the Jets second 1st rounder in 2022.

Ice video:

TSN: Zach Benson rides ‘mullet train’ up draft lists; aims to ‘open some eyes’ at Combine. Zach Benson liked how he looked on and off the ice during his NHL draft season. The Winnipeg Ice winger piled up 98 points, second to only Connor Bedard among draft-eligible players in the CHL, while maintaining a mullet. Benson will stick with that style this week as he aims to ‘open some eyes’ at the NHL Scouting Combine.

Working hard on a daily basis to provide the latest Winnipeg Jets and Manitoba Moose news for our readers and listeners. I also appear on the Illegal Curve Hockey Show every Saturday on our YouTube channel as well as the Illegal Curve Post-Game Show after every single Jets game. And I occasionally jump in the play-by-play booth at Canada Life to provide colour analysis during Manitoba Moose games.
