Note: Some sad news to report as former Jets 1.0 (who also played for the Jets of the WHA) Scott Campbell passed away on September 3rd. He embraced the return of NHL hockey to Winnipeg and was very accessible on twitter. He even added scribe to his long list of accomplishments joining the Winnipeg Free Press for a bit to add his insight to the local paper. His mom Dianne told me yesterday that they will be having a celebration of his life in June of 2023.
