Note: While training camp may still be a little ways away, we had our first chats with players yesterday following informal skate with Luke Schenn (watch here) and Morgan Barron (watch here) chatting with us.

Note II: With folks eagerly anticipating the start of the 2025-26 season, perhaps you have some Jets related questions. If you’d like to participate in the Free Press mailbag send in your questions to Ken Wiebe and Mike McIntyre.

Note III: The 17th season of the Illegal Curve Hockey Show kicks off today as we end our summer hiatus with two hours of Jets talk coming your way. Join us on our YouTube channel.

Jets news:

Winnipeg Free Press: Sense of enthusiasm building as Jets roll back into town. (Paywall). It’s still a small group skating at hockey for all centre right now but having a chance to catch up with a few you definitely sense that they want to continue the momentum they built last season.

Jets official site: Schenn impressed with Jets off-season additions. Luke Schenn is a veteran in the NHL with two Stanley Cup rings but it was clear as day that he is excited at what Jonathan Toews can bring to the Jets. He also has familiarity with Tanner Pearson and Gus Nyqvist.

The Athletic Winnipeg: Predicting the 2025-26 season and beyond. (Paywall). This was the second part of Murat’s comprehensive fan survey.

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.
