Jomboy breaks down the Winnipeg Jets and Minnesota Wild centre ice melee

Normally Manitoba is known as the Friendly province and Minnesota as the Nice state but these two geographic rivals have a heated rivalry, especially since the playoff series seemed to ratchet up the emotions back in 2017-18.

Last Tuesday the two teams met in Winnipeg which the home team ultimately took 2-0 against their division rival although a lot of the focus was on the centre ice battle between Marcus Foligno and Adam Lowry as well as Brenden Dillon and Jordan Greenway.

James Vincent Michael O’Brien aka Jomboy broke it down with his classic style.

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.
