Quotes:

– “I’ve gotta get on twitter so I can get the same information you guys have”

– (On Jacob Trouba sightings) “He’s not a UFO last I checked”

– “I could use trick words if I was an English major but I’m not, so I’m not going to trick you guys.  You guys are smart!”

– “Fun part of coaching is trying to find solutions to the problems.  Like I said before, it’s like parenting, there is no manual, it’s just like coaching.  You’re trying to sort it out.”

– (On Enstrom) “He’s been good.  Would you like me to get a bigger word?  A better adjective?  If he was fabulous I would say that!”

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.
