Jets GM Kevin Cheveldayoff announces passing of Mark Scheifele’s father, Brad

Some terrible news this morning in Texas as Jets GM Kevin Cheveldayoff delivered some terrible news that Mark Scheifele’s dad Brad had passed away overnight.

Here were his remarks that he delivered:

On behalf of all of us at Illegal Curve Hockey, we extend our most sincere condolences to Mark, his family, and their loved ones.

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.
