TSN:  Jets outplayed by Ducks on Teemu’s big night.

NHL.com:  Ducks win in Selanne’s Winnipeg farewell.

Post-game audio:

Winnipeg Jets:  Blake Wheeler, Andrew Ladd, Ondrej Pavelec and Zach Bogosian.

Anaheim Ducks:  Coach and Teemu Selanne.  (Selanne is in english and finnish).

Illegal Curve: Coach Noel post-game.  Opening thoughts on the game.  Does he know why?  How did they lose the game?  What does he do to change things?  Clitsome’s rough night.  Is the loss worse because the Ducks played last night?  How does the team get better at face offs?  Roster depth an issue?

Illegal Curve: Post-game podcast from the Press box. Host Drew Mindell and Analyst Richard Pollock break down the Jets play against the Ducks.

Teemu Selanne content:

Illegal Curve:  Selanne tribute during 1st period.  During a TV timeout the Jets gave Teemu Selanne a little shout out and gave the crowd a chance to applaud the Finnish Flash.

Illegal Curve:  Selanne 1st star and final skate at MTS Centre (video).  Somewhat unsurprisingly, Teemu Selanne was given the 1st star (although he himself questioned the decision post-game) but this allowed fans to give him a nice Winnipeg send off.

Illegal Curve:  Selanne post-game.  His thoughts on the crowd and how did it compare to 2011?  Nice to get the win tonight?  What was going through his mind during pre-game warm up?  What has the city meant to his career?  Is this last time we see him as a player?  What’s his message to the fans?  Did he feel his line mates were trying to feed him tonight? Surprised by reception?  How did he like getting 1st star?  Thoughts on playing with Perry and Getzlaf?  (“Bruce likes to change his lines like underwear”).  His take on the Jets.  Thoughts on Lindholm.  Does he keep mementos from the places he visits?  Where will the moment rank for him?
