Note: Still nothing from Scott Arniel who was introduced as head coach of the Jets over two weeks ago but who still hasn’t made an announcement as to who will be the associate and assistant coaches who are to be added to his bench. Interestingly the Eastern Conference Final in the AHL conclude tonight so it’s possible he’s waiting until Hershey and Cleveland are done their series.

Note II: TSN hockey insider Darren Dreger was on with Jay Onrait the other day and the conversation turned to the latest with Nikolaj Ehlers.

Note III: If you have Jets related questions then Ken Wiebe and Mike McIntyre will have answers as the latest mailbag for them is open. Send them a message on Twitter or via email here wiebesworld9@gmail.com.

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.
