Jets news:

Winnipeg Free Press:  Jets won’t be flying the free-agent skies anytime soonThe reality is the big name free agents are either looking for a chance to win now or a big pay day.  The Jets are not yet in the former category.  Some may look at the Clitsome deal as an overpay but to get the deal done before other teams had an opportunity to chat with him the Jets had to step up.

Winnipeg Free Press:  Clitsome signing part of Chevy’s plan to piece together Jets lineupThe most important thing that needs to be done is locking up the big three RFAs on this roster.  Here is a link to Richard’s analysis he did a few months back on what the Big 3 RFAs (Little, Bogosian and Wheeler) might garner.  Once that is done, the Jets GM can fill out the rest of the roster with available pieces.

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.
