Jets news:
Winnipeg Free Press: River City problems. Ed breaks down some different facets of the game including a wounded (in spirit) St. Louis, depression in Winnipeg, low shot totals and still no system.
Winnipeg Free Press: Noel knows Olympics a character-builder, but a taxing one. From the sounds of it his team could use the break to recoup from a heavy season.
