Winnipeg Jets playoff media availability ahead of 2nd round

With the series against the Oilers now yesterday’s news (although there was actually quite a bit of news today) the Jets are back at MTS Place for a media availability this morning. Considering they played four games as well as five OT periods in the last week makes sense that they didn’t practice today.
