Note: Perhaps you have a Jets or Moose related question. If you do Mike McIntyre and Ken Wiebe of the Winnipeg Free Press are accepting questions today for this month’s mailbag. Please send them a DM via social media to submit one to them.
Note II: The curious case of Logan Stanley continues to persist as the defenceman remains without a contract with less than a month until training camp. At one point last season the rumour was he was looking for a 5 x 5 deal. It will be very interesting to see how it plays out.
Note III: Another former Jet who is still looking for an NHL deal is Patrik Laine after being cut loose by the Habs after two seasons in Montreal including an injury plagued last season which saw him limited to just five games. There was even talk that he’d have to sign a PTO. Ten years after rocking Winnipeg as an 18-year old where he scored 36 goals in 73 games, will a team take a chance on the 28-year old?

The Athletic: Remembering a time your NHL team got smoked by a random rookie making his debut. (Paywall). I totally forgot about that game for the Jets back in 2019 against the Avs.
Sportsnet: 12 under-the-radar NHL acquisitions who could surprise next season. Missed this from last week but he’s got Mario Ferraro on his list and I tend to agree that he really could be a good fit in the lineup.
