Winnipeg Jets Morning Papers

Note: The Jets returned from their mentors trip with six out of six points and a lot of happy dads, family and/or friends in tow sitting in top spot in the entire NHL. They took Monday off although we did learn that Connor Hellebuyck had been named Third Star of the Week for the second straight week. With it being a gameday all eyes will be on morning skate which gets underway at 10:30 AM CST. All the relevant news will be posted in the pre-game report so check back for that. Puck drop is at 7 PM CST.
