Winnipeg Free Press:  Montoya gung-ho for big game against St. Louis.  If the Jets thought last night was going to be difficult, tonight’s game against a well rested top-seeded Blues team might be the most difficult game remaining on their schedule.  Despite playing his second game in as many night Al Montoya is ready to accept the challenge.

Winnipeg Free Press:  Time to bring back BurmiWith Scheifele and Little as your top two centres I don’t see Burmistrov happily returning to be the team’s third line centre (despite the fact that he would be well suited to that spot).

Winnipeg Free Press:  Hutchinson’s heartwarming tale of hard work and rewardAs I’ve been saying since Pavelec went down it is quite the tale to go from the ECHL all the way to the NHL.  When Montoya was run hard last night we wondered what Hutchinson thought when it looked like he could get called to action.

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.
