Some breaking news this morning as the Jets have announced that they will not have a captain to start the 2022-23 season. Here was the note from the team PR account

Obviously this removes the C from the chest of Blake Wheeler who was named captain at the end of August 2016.

What do you think of that?

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.
