Perreault Must Survive Jets Salary Purge
June 13th, 2018 Mathieu Perreault will never garner the big headlines on a Winnipeg Jets team with stars like Mark Scheifele and Patrik Laine. It's a shame, really, because the underrated veteran likely deserves them. There ought to be a picture of Perreault beside the phrase "possession driver". His advanced stats are off the charts. He makes any...
Jets' Bottom-Six Bottled Up
May 19th, 2018 The Winnipeg Jets, like all other NHL teams, have four forward lines. Right now, though, only one line is producing. In the playoffs, that's a problem.

He's also valuable for his versatility and ability to step into any role on any line without missing a beat — usually....
Jets Get First Taste of Adversity with Scheifele Injury
December 29th, 2017 Everything had been going pretty much according to plan for the Winnipeg Jets. Apparently, a little too much so. The Jets, beset by injuries last year in devastating fashion, had gone much of the first half of the season with no crippling injuries. Any time a player went down, his replacement filled in wonderfully. The other shoe was...
