Jets' Kyle Connor, Dylan Samberg Enjoy July Weddings

Two Winnipeg Jets will enter training camp this fall a few ounces heavier.

Yes, ounces - as measured by wedding band.

Forward Kyle Connor and defenceman Dylan Samberg each celebrated July nuptials to their life partners over the past few weeks. And alongside those marital promises, they will also be showcasing some new bling when they roll into town in early-September.

Connor married his longtime girlfriend-turned-fiancé Ally Petack on July 13 in Detroit, while Samberg tied the knot with his fiancé Destiny Schmitz just two weeks later in Edina, in a celebration that the Connors also attended.

Similarly to how reigning Vezina Trophy winner Connor Hellebuyck served in Connor's wedding party, three members of the Jets were groomsmen in support of Samberg: Cole Perfetti, Neal Pionk and Dominic Toninato.

Additionally, a number of Jets teammates/connections of past and present were also at each celebration.

In early-August forward Axel Jonsson-Fjallby and his girlfriend Elsa Jansson announced their engagement with a social media post by Jansson captioned, "AJF for the rest of my life!"

With one month left of summer, there still could be more summer love to share.
