Winnipeg Jets Andrew Ladd ironman streak comes to an end

He played in all 82 games in season 1, 48 games in season 2 and 72 games in season 3 but that streak comes to an end tonight in Dallas as it was confirmed that captain Ladd wouldn’t be suiting up for Winnipeg tonight.  He had suited up for all 202 Jets games since the move from Atlanta*.

So captain Ladd becomes Daddy Ladd (or maybe Lass would be more appropriate) as he and his wife welcome a baby girl to Jets Nation.

*As per Kalen Qually his total ironman streak dates back to January 23, 2011 in a Thrashers game against the Lightning.

Working hard on a daily basis to provide the latest Winnipeg Jets and Manitoba Moose news for our readers and listeners. I also appear on the Illegal Curve Hockey Show every Saturday on our YouTube channel as well as the Illegal Curve Post-Game Show after every single Jets game. And I occasionally jump in the play-by-play booth at Canada Life to provide colour analysis during Manitoba Moose games.
