Did they have a huge coming home party too?

They had the NHL Faceoff party in Winnipeg this year (surprise) to kick off the whole NHL season. There was all kinds of stuff going on around the city today. They had giant TVs set up near our downtown to watch the game for people who couldn't get tickets.

Too bad we lost 5-1 :(

Bunch of bullshit interference calls if you ask me ;)

Ouch. Gotta build up from somewhere though.

Did a video shoot for the home opener this friday.

Indoctrinate them into the one true religion early - HOCKEY.

:lol That is a true fan

Jets were competitive at least against Chicago, but we totally got out-coached after giving up our 2-0 lead. Too many awful turnovers.

Also, two points:
- the rule about "when I meant to blow the whistle" vs "when you actually did" is bullshit and contrary to all other professional sports

- bush league arena staff in Chicago by blowing the horn with 1.5 seconds left, then the refs calling the game. I know it wouldn't have changed much, but come on, get the camera crews off the ice and drop the puck one more time.

Its still the same roster as the thrashers as of right now though right?

Mostly, yeah.

I don't look forward to playing the jets then. They usually beat on us for some reason.

We're having a party tomorrow to watch the Jets vs Jets game tomorrow in Phoenix. Not many cities to play themselves.

The game in Phoenix sold out mostly because of Winnipeg fans who couldn't get tickets to home games buying plane tickets to Arizona instead.

:lol thats awesome

Fuck you the carolina hurricanes and your assfaggery >:

The Wis was signed to be a goon. Period.

If they want to punish him, make him listen to that snooze of a man talk, geeze. He could make cheese yawn. It was 2 minutes that felt like 2 hours. I have seen school films on a projector about science that were less monotone and boring

That video made me think of this:

:lol

I hate that that is funny because I like Howard Cosell.

This is why Woody Allen was funnier when he was younger though

WHOA NELLY

JETS WIN 2-1

WE BEAT SIDNEY CROSBY!

WE'RE THE GREATEST TEAM EVER! BRB PLANNING STANLEY CUP PARADE :rave

Good thing you're keeping a level head, Chimp.

I like his fan energy

It's so loud in MTS Centre that I leave half deaf every time. And today I've kinda lost my voice from yelling so much.

If they ever happen to have a Jets home game on TV where you live, check it out. You should be able to hear us ;)

I think you play the Flyers only once this year. So not bloody likely. :(

Jets are in Philadelphia on Oct 27, then Flyers are in Winnipeg on Nov 19 and Feb 21 :O

Shows what I know. Bring it!

Flagg, you going?
