Jets Increasing Ehlers' Ice Time is Key to Success |
In an offseason full of potential chaos for the Winnipeg Jets, the move that could have the most significant impact next season is a simple in-house solution. Except for the last four seasons, the Jets have not done this, as Nikolaj Ehlers has consistently been grossly mishandled and misused. The ability to enter and carry the puck into the offensive zone is such a key factor in which players are truly elite offensive contributors. During the 2021-22 season, Ehlers ranked third in zone entries per 60 minutes of ice time (from 'The NHL's Most Dynamic Forwards: Ranking the Best (and Worst) Forwards at Zone Entries and Rush Offense', The Athletic, March 12, 2022). |

Winnipeg Jets' First-Round Draft Misses Since 2016 |
This is especially true of the NHL Entry Draft when there is always a chance that a player slips through the cracks and becomes another team's gem. When looking back on past drafts, many general managers (GM) could either be grinning from ear-to-ear, or shaking their fists in disgust. Unfortunately for the Jets, they are no exception and have missed out on a few great players. Whether your team has missed with their selections, like the Bruins in the 2015 Draft, or select a player like Kyle Connor, who will ultimately impact the roster's production for the next decade-plus. |

5 Moves the Jets Should Make During the 2023 Offseason |
The Jets made yet another early playoff exit in 2022-23, losing in the first round to the Vegas Golden Knights in five games. Overall, despite a strong first half, the campaign was a disappointment and the Jets need to make big changes to get out of the “mushy middle.” General manager Kevin Cheveldayoff has not committed to a rebuild. If this summer's long-term contract talks with Pierre-Luc Dubois don't go anywhere, Cheveldayoff must trade him before the 2023-24 season starts. |

Hynes fired as Predators coach after 4 seasons |
The Predators (42-32-8) failed to make the Stanley Cup Playoffs for the first time since 2013-14, finishing three points behind the Winnipeg Jets for the second wild card from the Western Conference. Hynes, who had one season remaining on a two-year contract he signed with the Predators on May 19, 2022, was 134-96-18 in 248 regular-season games with Nashville since replacing Peter Laviolette on Jan. 7, 2020. |

Jets 2022-23 Player Report Cards: Connor Hellebuyck |
The Winnipeg Jets had an exceedingly up-and-down 2022-23 season. In this edition of the report cards series, we'll take a look at the fantastic season that Connor Hellebuyck had and how it led to yet another Vezina Trophy nomination. In perhaps the least surprising part of the Jets' 2022-23 season, Hellebuyck was terrific yet again. Earning his third Vezina Trophy nomination in the past six seasons, he proved that he's still one of the best netminders in the entire league. |

Redrafting Matthew Tkachuk and the Top 10 of 2016 NHL Draft |
Dubois was a surprise pick at the time (Jesse Puljujärvi was expected to be the pick here), but he turned out to be a very good player who brought size, solid production and a very good two-way game to the Blue Jackets' lineup. In hindsight, neither Dubois or Laine would have been the pick in this spot. In this case, that is Fox. |

Senators' 2023 Offseason Free-Agent Targets: Winnipeg Jets |
The Ottawa Senators and Winnipeg Jets experienced contrasting conclusions to the season. While the Senators made commendable progress, they fell short of securing a playoff berth in the Eastern Conference. The Jets, on the other hand, managed to secure a playoff spot in the Western Conference but suffered a disappointing five-game exit at the hands of the Vegas Golden Knights. For the Senators, this season marked an important forward step in their rebuild. |

Winnipeg downs Canaries 11-6 |
WINNIPEG, MB (KELO.com) — The Sioux Falls Canaries committed four errors and left 15 runners on base Saturday as the Birds were dealt an 11-6 loss by Winnipeg. Sioux Falls opened the scoring in the top of the first inning when Wyatt Ulrich crossed home plate on a sacrifice fly from Jordan Barth. But Winnipeg escaped the frame with no further damage done and made a pair of run-saving plays over the next two innings. The Goldeyes struck for four runs in their half of the third and added five more in the fourth. Sioux Falls loaded the bases with no outs in the top of the fifth before Jabari Henry drew an RBI walk but Winnipeg once again escaped a jam with minimal damage. Darnell Sweeney crushed |

WHA Jets legendary goaltender Daley seeks gear from playing days |
Joe Daley has spent his post-hockey career dealing with seemingly every piece of sports memorabilia imaginable. The location of Daley's goalie mask, the only one he ever wore when wrapping up his career with his hometown Winnipeg Jets of the World Hockey Association, remains a mystery. “I have no idea,” Daley told the Free Press on Thursday. Daley appeared in 106 NHL games with the Pittsburgh Penguins, Buffalo Sabres and Detroit Red Wings between 1967-1972, then joined the WHA Jets with whom he played 308 games before hanging up his skates following the 1978-79 season. |

Jets 2023 Unrestricted Free Agent Overview |
The Winnipeg Jets have six pending unrestricted free agents (UFAs) to decide on this offseason. Here, we'll take a brief look at each and if there's a potential future for them in Winnipeg. Veteran forward Sam Gagner signed a one-year deal with the Jets in September, and for the first half of the season, was a reliable contributor. By mid-January, the 33-year-old had eight goals and six assists for 14 points and at times jumped up to the top six when the Jets were ravaged with injuries. |

No, Canadiens Won't Trade Dach to Jets for Dubois |
In this business, reports are generally to be believed, but the report the Winnipeg Jets hoped to get Nick Suzuki from the Montreal Canadiens for Pierre-Luc Dubois is just so gosh darn inherently unbelievable. The subsequent suggestion the Habs should build a package around Kirby Dach instead to bridge the gap is almost as ludicrous (from 'Winnipeg Jets roster decisions: Who stays and who goes this offseason?' The Athletic, May 20, 2023). To be fair, reporter Murat Ates did acknowledge Suzuki was a non-starter for the Canadiens. There should be no doubt that would have been the case all along for the Jets, considering Suzuki is the team's captain to whom they just relatively recently made an eight-year, $63 million commitment, with Suzuki far from triggering any semblance of buyer's remorse. |

A Jets fan to the end |
“Figure if I'm dying I might as well give y'all a chance to meet me if you want,” Justin typed on April 28 as he lay in palliative care at the Grace Hospice. Justin, 32, died two days later. “The thing with him is that, despite everything he went through, he still kept a brave face,” his father, Marc Deleau, told the Free Press on Wednesday. Justin was first diagnosed with colorectal cancer in January 2019, the same disease which killed his mother when he was 17. |

Jets 2022-23 Player Report Cards: Cole Perfetti |
The Winnipeg Jets had an exceedingly up-and-down 2022-23 season. The Jets handed a large role to 21-year-old Cole Perfetti in 2022-23, and he was a stellar option for the first half of the season. Perfetti was one of the best playmakers on the team this season, as his patience and vision resulted in plenty of high-danger chances for his teammates. This provided head coach Rick Bowness with the flexibility to use him as a “third wheel” on a line with two veteran scorers. |

Niederreiter bracing for tough offseason decisions ahead of Jets |
Niederreiter was traded to Winnipeg by the Nashville Predators on Feb. 25 for a second-round pick in the 2024 NHL Draft. Several core Jets can become unrestricted free agents at the end of next season: Niederreiter, goalie Connor Hellebuyck, forwards Blake Wheeler and Mark Scheifele, and defensemen Brenden Dillon and Dylan DeMelo. |

The power of positive coaching and its impact on the Stanley Cup playoffs |
Emily Kaplan is ESPN's national NHL reporter. Following one of his nine seasons coaching the Winnipeg Jets, Paul Maurice had an idea: Could he be more intentional about the video he showed his players? Maurice, now coach of the Florida Panthers, the eighth-seeded darlings of the Stanley Cup playoffs who are one win away from the Cup Finals, wondered how his staff could maximize these meetings. Maurice also wanted to quantify something deeper: Was his clip selection affecting players' psyche and performance? |

Dylan Samberg leads US men's hockey to perfect Group A mark with overtime win against Sweden |
Dylan Samberg scored in overtime and the United States beat Sweden, 4-3, on Tuesday to finish the group stage with a perfect record at the men's ice hockey world championship. Samberg's winner from the slot 1:37 into overtime clinched first place for the US in Group A, two points in front of Sweden, ahead of Thursday's quarterfinal games. The Americans lead, 3-1 in the third period but Leo Carlsson scored his second goal before Timothy Liljegren equalized with 2:31 left to force overtime. |

Golden Knights know 'series is still far from over' heading into Game 3 |
You see in these playoffs, especially going into overtime, (Michael) Amadio scored a goal (in overtime against the Winnipeg Jets in the first round), Howden, 'Stevie.' It's always somebody else that is going to step up and we have really been trying to make it hard for the other team to play against us, especially in our building. |

Tales of Brent Burns: Cheetah attacks, 'Mary Poppins' bag, more |
The Brent Burns you hear about is one of the most unique star athletes in all of professional sports, let alone the NHL. Here are Hurricanes teammates Jaccob Slavin, Brady Skjei and Sebastian Aho; former San Jose Sharks teammates Logan Couture, Brenden Dillon and Colin White; former Minnesota Wild and San Jose Sharks teammate Dominic Moore; and Mike Potenza, director of performance for the Golden State Warriors and former director of strength and conditioning of the Sharks (2006-2022), talking all things Brent Burns. |

Lightning re-sign forward Mikey Eyssimont to two-year deal |
TAMPA — When the Lightning acquired forward Mikey Eyssimont from the Sharks near the trade deadline this season for underperforming forward Vladislav Namestnikov, they believed they were getting a player who could help them beyond the current season. Opening an offseason in which the Lightning will retool their roster, their first move Friday was to sign Eyssimont, who could have been an ... |
