Note: The Jets got the last of their RFAs locked up and the only remaining business will be whether they ink captain Adam Lowry or top winger Kyle Connor to an extension at some point before training camp gets underway in September. Otherwise it will likely be a fairly slow August for news about the NHL club of Winnipeg.
Note II: Reminder that the Illegal Curve Hockey Show is on summer hiatus until the second weekend in September. Of course we will still be doing some of our summer series chats so stay tuned for that throughout the month of August.
