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.

Note II: The buyout window opened yesterday and ends on June 30th. The next event on the NHL calendar will be the Entry Draft in Nashville which gets underway on June 28th (1st round) and June 29th (rounds 2-7). Remember to join us in two weeks for live IC coverage on our YouTube channel of the Draft.

Note III: Some big junior hockey news for Winnipeg as Darren Dreger announced yesterday that the Ice have been sold and will move to Washington State.

Note IV: Join us this morning at 9 AM CDT on the Illegal Curve Hockey Show for two hours Jets talk today. We will be joined by Mike McIntyre of the Winnipeg Free Press and Craig Button of TSN.

Jets news:

Sportsnet: Will Dubois or Hellebuyck be the first domino to fall? You had questions and Wieber gives you his answers in his latest mailbag column.

The Hockey News: The Jets can salvage their off-season mess. I’m sticking with my thought that they keep 55, deal 80 for sure, likely deal 37 and I’m not certain what happens with 26.

The Athletic NHL: LeBrun rumblings. At the end of his column he mentions that the teams “poking around on him” know that his camp is looking for “Vasilevskiy-esque money” and with Hill winning the championship with Vegas does that change the equation for a team not wanting to devote that much money to a goalie.

Sportsnet: 32 Thoughts Podcast (Friedman thinks Kings have leaned in “very hard” on Pierre-Luc Dubois). Check out this transcription of the podcast which was released on Friday. Interesting stuff on L.A.

Winnipeg Sports Talk: Could the Jets and Kings partner on a trade for Pierre-Luc Dubois? Andrew “Hustler” Paterson is joined by Dennis Bernstein of The Fourth Period. They discuss trade possibilities between the Winnipeg Jets and the Los Angeles Kings for Pierre-Luc Dubois (or Connor Hellebuyck, or Mark Scheifele).
