NHL.com: Favorite playoff memory: MacLean recalls first postseason game with Jets. Paul MacLean was part of those great 80’s Jets teams that just couldn’t get past the Oilers and if it wasn’t the Oilers then it was the Flames bringing heartache to the prairies.

NHL.com: Favorite playoff memory: Selanne recalls whiteout as Jets fan in 1990. There are some interesting comments from the Finnish Flash on what a game he didn’t even play in meant to his career.

NHL.com: Maurice talks Hellebuyck’s desire to be great. It has been evident for awhile that the Jets top netminder has quite the inner fire.

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.
