Andrew Ladd – On getting into the playoffs.  Is the locker room usually this happy after a loss?  Where does this regular season rank?  The grind should serve them well in the playoffs.  On whether they care if they are playing either Blues or Ducks.  

Blake Wheeler – On getting help to get into the playoffs. Defensive play of the team this past week. What does it mean to finally achieve the goal of the playoffs?  Can he imagine what the MTS Centre is going to be like for the playoffs?

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.
