Jets news:
Winnipeg Sun: Logan Stanley among the league’s best. I am fascinated to see how this plays out in Winnipeg. His value is higher than it’s ever been. If he won’t sign before becoming a UFA the organization has to deal him. But then it becomes a function of what type of contract. So many variables.
Winnipeg Free Press: Sniping Stanley makes case for extension. (Paywall). I really don’t know how this is going to end up. Usually I get a sense but right now I truly have no idea if Winnipeg gives him the long term stability that he will get from some team in the NHL.
