Winnipeg Jets News Day Part II
Got those Monday blues? No problem, Hockey at the Forks has you covered in part two of your Winnipeg Jets news from the last week. So take a breather and relax, because Monday cannot be all that bad when you are reading about your Winnipeg Jets.
A couple days ago here at Hockey at the Forks we ventured to the 7th spot on our countdown of the league’s top goaltenders and how they compare to your Jets goaltenders,
“During the 2012-2013 season Sergei Bobrovsky became the first Russian to win the Vezina trophy award. Sergei had played with the Flyers in his early seasons, but would find his worth in Columbus with the Jackets. So what has Sergei been up to in more recent times that earns him a spot on our countdown? Well let’s show you.” -Andrei Lutz

Ken Wiebe of the Winnipeg Sun wrote an article earlier this week about how it is odd that the highly-skilled Jets prospects are underperforming at the Young Stars Classic,
“With a large stable of highly-skilled prospects, it’s almost unthinkable that the Winnipeg Jets have managed to score only two goals through the first two games at the Young Stars Classic.” -Ken Wiebe (Winnipeg Sun)

Fellow Editor here at the Forks in Brendan Macgranachan also touched on the performance of the Jets players in the Young Stars Classic in an article following their loss to the Flames,
“The Jets fell behind quick and never really recovered. The Flames scored twice within the first ten minutes of the game. One was a sharp angle shot that beat starter Connor Hellebuyck but the Jets prized goaltending prospect finished with 18 saves in his one half of the contest.” -Brendan Macgranachan

In an article by Arctic Ice Hockey and SB Nation it was named that Jacob Trouba was the top Jets player under the age of 25,
“But part of Trouba’s beauty is in how he brings together both the old-school and the analytically inclined; he is a wonderful example of eye test and advanced stats aligning.He hits, blocks shots, plays an aggressive, mobile style and possesses intriguing offensive potential which I believe has only begun to spread its wings.” (PhilipAIver, Arctic Ice Hockey, SB Nation)
