  • Jets Seek More from Special Teams Working on Scoring with Man Advantage
    Winnipeg Free Press https://www.winnipegfreepress.com/sports/hockey/jets/jets-start-season-with-familiar-special- teams-woes-451167023.html?k=U9WcHs Jets seek more from special teams Working on scoring with man advantage By: Mike McIntyre They spent much of the off-season talking about the need to improve their special teams if they want to be a legitimate playoff contender. But the power play and penalty kill have come limping out of the gate for the Winnipeg Jets. While they’ve managed to string together a 3-2-0 start — thanks mainly to some strong five-on- five play and some stellar goaltending the last three games, all wins — they’re certainly playing with fire if things don’t improve. The Jets are currently second-worst in the NHL when short-handed, killing off 71.4 per cent of all penalties (15 for 21). Their power play isn’t much better, going just 2-for-19 so far. The 10.5 per cent success rate is 23rd overall in the league. "We can do everything a little faster, not force too many things. Try and just get the pucks to the net, get some traffic and just put it in from there," forward Nikolaj Ehlers said Monday of the power play. "When we try and do too much, that’s when it’s not working. So we’re going to have to try and just play simple and get pucks to the net." The Jets now face the additional hurdle of losing forward Mathieu Perreault for an extended period time.

  • Ready to Make an Impression in the 'Peg After Playing for Three Teams in Five Years, Sgarbossa Wants to Take the Next Step
    Winnipeg Free Press https://www.winnipegfreepress.com/sports/hockey/jets/ready-to-make-an-impression-in-the-peg- 443635373.html Ready to make an impression in the 'Peg After playing for three teams in five years, Sgarbossa wants to take the next step By: Jason Bell Michael Sgarbossa has a one-way ticket to ride for the first time in his NHL career, but very little changes for the sixth-year pro from the Toronto area. The left-shooting natural centre, who turned 25 in July, still puts his work boots on each morning, heads to the job site and punches the clock. Last season, Sgarbossa split his time in sunny locales like San Diego, Anaheim and Sunrise, Fla., as well as a stint in Springfield, Mass. He’ll earn the largest regular pay cheques of his life this winter, likely playing hockey for a Winnipeg-based club. He signed a one-year, one-way US$650,000 deal with the Jets this summer, and the intense on- and off-ice workouts he’s been putting in lately at the Bell MTS Iceplex — a week before the NHL club’s training camp — are part of a regimen to give himself the best opportunity possible to snag a bottom-six spot with the big club. "For me, signing my first one-way deal was very exciting. But I’m trying not to look at it as being comfortable, but as an opportunity to play on this team, play the whole season and contribute," the 6-0, 185-pound product of Campbellville, Ont., said Sunday morning after a 65-minute skate with about 16 other Jets hopefuls during the club’s "mini-camp" and then another 90 minutes in the gym.

  • Jets Prospect Appleton Works on His Shot
    Winnipeg Sun http://www.winnipegsun.com/2017/06/28/jets-prospect-appleton-works-on-his-shot Jets prospect Appleton works on his shot BY KEN WIEBE, WINNIPEG SUN Mason Appleton was tired of hearing about the knock against him, so he decided to do something about it. Chosen by the Winnipeg Jets in the sixth round (168th overall) of the 2015 NHL Draft out of the USHL, Appleton spent the past two seasons with the NCAA Michigan State Spartans. Since he was drafted, Appleton has become an important point producer — thanks to the extra on and off-ice work he has put in on his shot and release. “You kind of get tired of people telling you that you need to have a better shot, a stronger shot, a heavier shot,” Appleton said after finishing up the third day of Jets development camp. “I realized that I needed to put a lot of time into that and work at it hard. Working five, six, seven hours a week on my shot has definitely helped me a lot as a player. “My shot has come a long way. It was definitely a weak part of my game when I got drafted. I wasn’t scoring any first-shot goals, just rebound and garbage goals, which obviously are good goals to score. But scoring those first-shot goals has helped my game tremendously. I’m liking where my game is going.” Not only was Appleton the Spartans’ top point producer (12 goals and 31 points in 35 games) last season, he has grown into a leader and was named captain by new head coach Danton Cole, a former forward with the Jets 1.0 edition.
