Note: Definitely think the news about a CBA provision for the 2026-27 season which would allow an NHL team to put one 19-year old per season in AHL rather than having to send them back to CHL is pretty, pretty, pretty significant. Worked out really well for Cole Perfetti (obviously under different circumstances but same idea of playing in AHL as a 19-year old).

Note II: The Jets signed their first RFA on Friday inking defenceman Isaak Phillips to a two-year, two-way contract

Note III: It’s been a really busy 2024-25 season in Jetsland and before we head out on summer hiatus we have the season finale of the Illegal Curve Hockey Show this morning at 9 AM CDT. Join us here.

Jets news:

The Carillon: Martin right at home when playing at Winnipeg Jets development camp. Quite the experience to go from a kid hoping to meet an NHL player to a few years later being a prospect of the team in your home province and having young kids look for a photo or autograph with/from you. 

Owen Martin

NHL.com: ‘A team and city that I believe in’: Appleton excited after inking two-year free-agent deal with Red Wings. Missed this from the other day as number 22 makes himself at home with his new team.

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.
