Jets superfan Len (Kroppy) Kropioski was honoured before the game by the Winnipeg Jets. If you’re unfamiliar with his back story you can read more about him here.
After the video they played a soulful tune in tribute to Kroppy which was followed by an impressive moment of silence.
During the anthem they had a beam of light illuminate the seat Kroppy usually occupied and they then showed his image during the anthem in pictures with fans.
Ended with this image:
He will be missed.
Guests: Christian Aumell at 28:32 and Brian Engblom at 1:28:49.
