Breaking News: NHL hockey returns to Winnipeg and Illegal Curve is your #1 source for hockey news in Winnipeg

The NHL is back in Winnipeg.

It is now official. The day the people of Winnipeg have been waiting for since April 28th, 1996.  The NHL is returning to the city of Winnipeg and we here at Illegal Curve are going to be your #1 source for news about the new Winnipeg NHL franchise.  Before we turn the page and look ahead to the new team, it is important to take a final look back at the original NHL team that resided in these parts.

IllegalCurve.com is thrilled to announce that we are transitioning the site to ensure that we become your one stop shop for all the latest news, game day previews, game chats/threads, post game thoughts and in-depth analysis of the Winnipeg NHL franchise. We aim to be your best source for news about the returning NHL franchise, 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, 365 days per year. Our mission statement is to be your home for NHL hockey in Winnipeg, and this is a commitment we take very seriously.

Over the next weeks and months, stick with IllegalCurve.com for your news about the new NHL franchise in Winnipeg, but be assured that behind the scenes this site will be overhauled to ensure that when the 2011/2012 hockey season gets underway, IllegalCurve.com will be everything you want in your source for NHL news in Winnipeg.

The entire Illegal Curve team is returning to cover every aspect of NHL hockey in Winnipeg.  We will have Rich and Kyle delivering in-depth analysis, Remis, Ez and Dave covering game day previews, game chats/threads, and post game thoughts, and Drew will return with his always colourful and highly charged opinion pieces.

The site will continue to work in conjunction with the Illegal Curve Radio Show heard every Saturday from 9 am to 12 pm on Sports Radio 1290.

There will be a number of ways for you to get your information from us, namely;
