With it getting closer to crunch time and the Jets determining who will be on their 23 man roster to start the 2019-20 season a pretty good indication that 2019 1st rounder Ville Heinola and 2018 2nd rounder David Gustafsson will make it was the news this morning from Jets PR that these two players had been assigned new numbers for the season.  Not exactly something you do if they were both returning to Europe.

Ville Heinola will wear 14.  Last worn by Anthony Peluso.

David Gustafsson will wear 19.  Last worn by Nic Petan.

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.
