    Winnipeg Free Press https://www.winnipegfreepress.com/sports/hockey/jets/maurice-changes-lines-at-jets-practice- 473698153.html Maurice changes lines at Jets practice By: Mike Sawatzky The Winnipeg Jets may have the NHL's best home record but there's a price to be paid for all that success. "When you're higher in the standings, and we're close to first, you're going to get teams pretty geared up to play you when they come in," said veteran Jets defenceman Ben Chiarot following practice at Bell MTS Place Saturday afternoon. "This is a tough building to play in and when you put where we are in the standings on top of that, teams are going to come out hard. If we're off one night or sleeping to start, we're going to be off on the wrong foot. "And St. Louis was pretty jacked up to play us." The Jets, mostly outplayed by the Blues in a 5-2 loss to St. Louis Friday night, will have another chance to defend home ice Sunday afternoon (2 p.m., TSN3, TSN 1290) when the New York Rangers make their lone visit of the 2017-18 season. Winnipeg was 20-4-2 at home and tied for top spot in the Central Division while the Rangers were three points out of a wild-card playoff spot in the Eastern Conference heading into Saturday's action. On Thursday, Rangers GM Jeff Gorton sent shockwaves through the league when he announced the club was entering a rebuilding phase and warned the club's fans that a sell-off of major assets was probable prior to the Feb.

  • Towering Tyler Myers Primed and Ready for Training Camp
    Winnipeg Free Press https://www.winnipegfreepress.com/sports/hockey/jets/ready-to-make-an-impression-in-the-peg- 443635373.html Towering Tyler Myers primed and ready for training camp By: Jason Bell Tyler Myers talked openly, radiating contentment and a bit of relief, on Monday following a morning skate at the Iceplex with most of his teammates. The Winnipeg Jets defenceman says he’s confident his body has healed, adding he's primed and ready for the NHL club’s official training camp, which begins with medicals Thursday. Most importantly, his young son, Tristan, is healthy too. "Growing like a weed," said the proud papa. "He’s doing well." Indeed, it’s a blessing considering the struggles the little guy went through after he was born five weeks premature in January. Understandably, very little of the family struggle Tyler and his wife, Michela, went through at the time was made public. It was later reported Tristan had been delivered by emergency C-section and was born without about 80 per cent of his blood due to a fetal maternal hemorrhage. For days, the situation was life and death as the newborn received blood transfusions and stayed in the neonatal intensive care unit. Tristan also suffered through seizures and a stroke. Thankfully, several weeks later he had recovered to a point where the new parents could finally take their son home. "It was tough but he’s a little fighter, he got through it and everything’s looking up now," said Myers, of his now eight-month-old son. It was a distressing season for the veteran defenceman, who suited up for just 11 games during the 2016-17 campaign.

  • Poolman Swimming, Not Sinking
    Winnipeg Free Press https://www.winnipegfreepress.com/sports/hockey/jets/poolman-swimming-not-sinking- 450852903.html Poolman swimming, not sinking By: Jason Bell VANCOUVER — Tucker Poolman nearly had no hockey town to call home six years ago. He was fresh out of East Grand Forks High School and on the hunt for a junior team. A couple of organizations near his home in Minnesota, and from neighbouring states North Dakota and Wisconsin, gave cursory looks, but made no grand gestures offering a place for him to hang his skates. Poolman’s long-term plan to play college hockey seemed like a long shot at best, and the goal to one day earn a living in the game had fast become a figment of his imagination. "I never thought I’d get a chance," he said matter-of-factly Thursday afternoon, swiping sweat from his forehead while sitting in the visitors’ dressing room at Rogers Arena, home of the Vancouver Canucks. "I wanted it, but you start to wonder if it’s going to happen." Poolman finally got his shot — a gig with the Wichita Falls (Texas) Wildcats of the North American Hockey League that eventually paved the way to a three-year stint with the University of North Dakota Fighting Hawks. Now, he’s getting an even bigger chance to shine. The 24-year-old defenceman played the second game of his NHL career Thursday night, taking a regular shift for the Winnipeg Jets against the Canucks. The Central Division club doubled up on the hosts 4-2 and has won two straight contests since the calm, steady blue-liner — who wasn’t drafted until his final year of eligibility — was inserted into the lineup Monday night in Edmonton.

  • Brandon Wheat Kings, WHL | 6'1, 196 | 11/27/98
    1. C Nolan Patrick | Brandon Wheat Kings, WHL | 6’1, 196 | 11/27/98: Bruising center with sublime puck skills who battled through an injury-plagued season. Patrick is the type of center to build a franchise around, and he’s both physically and mentally ready to handle the day-to-day rigors of playing for an organization in desperate need of help. He has an excellent shot with a quick release, and will make goalies stretch out to their maximum elasticity in order to stop it. Patrick possesses exceptional vision and can thread the needle with authority either cross-ice or static. He never backs down from a challenge and can deliver punishing checks to separate his opponent from the puck. Patrick’s skating is powerful and he has phenomenal balance and agility, and though he lacks first-step explosiveness, he can outskate most defenders while taking direct routes to the net. 2. C Casey Mittelstadt | Green Bay Gamblers, USHL | 6’0, 201 | 11/22/98: No draft-eligible player exemplifies infectious leadership the way this Minnesota- reared super scorer does, and there’s a strong chance Mittelstadt will end up within a select group of prospects to challenge Nolan Patrick for the top slot. Size, speed, grace, vision, power and enthusiasm are just a few words one throws around when dissecting his game, and it will be on display for the University of Minnesota in the fall of 2017. Mittelstadt is a money player with a deadly shot, using his size and lower body strength to step into it with NHL-level velocity.
