Normally we’d be starting Sunday in gameday mode but we moved the Illegal Curve Hockey Show from today to tomorrow so you can start your day with all the latest Jets and Moose news in the AM Papers on illegalcurve.com which are available starting at 7 AM CDT, check back for the pre-game report, join us at 9 AM CDT for the IC Hockey Show, stick with us throughout the day for updates and then join us after the final buzzer on the Illegal Curve Post-Game Show of the season around 7:40 PM CDT

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.
