Jets players roast rival teams and share their locker room favorites

The Winnipeg Jets had some fun roasting other NHL teams and players, and it was hilarious. Nino Niederreiter threw some shade at the Minnesota Wild, saying he dislikes losing to them the most.
It makes sense since he spent a good chunk of his career there and never wants to be on the losing side against them.
Nikolaj Ehlers called out the Toronto Maple Leafs. Ehlers also dropped said Niederreiter has a new nickname: "Bubsy." He didn't spill the beans on how that came to be, though, so we're left guessing!
Meanwhile, Morgan Barron went with the New York Rangers, the team that traded him to Winnipeg. You gotta love the personal motivation there. Kyle Connor picked the Nashville Predators because of the heated central division rivalry, and Josh Morrissey mentioned the Vegas Golden Knights, who've knocked us out of the playoffs the last couple of seasons.
Morrissey also said he'll really miss his D-partner Brendan Dillon, who signed with the New Jersey Devils over the summer. Oh, and apparently, the boys agreed that Jusse Saros, the Nashville Predators goalie, is their favorite guy to score on. Gotta love the confidence and hope they do more damage against him as they make their match back towards the Stanley Cup Playoffs.
