The Adam Lowry news might be one of the single biggest (and worst) pieces of news this Winnipeg Jets off-season has had. Lowry needing hip surgery increases the immediate need for a second-line centre, and may very well impact the sort of player he is for the foreseeable future. Does this mean Winnipeg now needs to make an even bigger swing for a roster upgrade this summer? Why is Lowry's presence so critical to everything the Jets want to do on the ice? How does this news interplay with the increasing likelihood that Ehlers walks in free agency? Are the Jets in danger of falling out of the playoffs next season if their summer is quiet, or can they find internal improvements?
