Imagine what it’s like to be in Winnipeg today.
The Winnipeg Jets are on the verge of doing something no other Canadian NHL franchise has done since Ottawa did it in 2017. and that is, make it to the conference finals (aka the Stanley Cup playoffs semi-finals ) Thing is, they have one major hurdle in their way – the Nashville Predators. The Stanley Cup runners-up last year and the number one team in the regular season is all that separates the city of Winnipeg from playoff adulation, to another year of stifling heat, and Mosquitos the size of Raccoons. Do the Jets and the city of Winnipeg deserve to win? If you ask anyone who’s ever been to the ‘Peg, yes they do. For putting up with winters like that and summers like that…one thing stands in their way.
A Win.
