Winnipeg Jets Morning Papers

Note: There was some terrible news on Thursday as the Moose announced that former video coach Richard Bue had passed away. Richard was a really good person who had left the team a few years ago to return to Ottawa to be closer to his family. He still regularly checked in with me and his last message back in February was a congrats that the IC Show was celebrating our 15th anniversary. He was just 44 years old. You can read his obituary here.
