I was at the Sea Bears game yesterday and I noticed that work on the premium seating area improvements at the north end of the lower bowl are really coming along. Saw some really big changes compared to when I was last there for a Sea Bears game a few weeks ago...

-Work is now well under way on the former Moxie's location
-The new stairs are now in place leading from the Budweiser King Club bar area to the lower level
-The suites at the north end of the lower bowl are now under construction with scaffolds out front as they get converted into that new breed of premium seating that Biff was talking about before

Looks like there will be some noticeable changes in that area this season.

Yeah, I'm pumped for it. This is what they are doing with the suites at the end. https://www.nhl.com/jets/tickets/premium-suite-lounge

Ya that's how a lot of NHL'ers tend to start out. Forward crop is looking good. The rest is speculatory. 2 good goalies from the CHL have potential.

^ its always tough....every fan base thinks their next crop is going to be stars, but all of those guys are late first rounders (at best)....cross your fingers they buck the odds.

We are already calling Barlow a future captain, ha ha.

speaking of first rounders, I hope Heinola gets his chance this year....they are perilously close to making him a Roslovic.

haha got to believe!!

These aren't Bedard type players here. But seem to all be decent players that COULD one day be a future captain. I feel like we're back 10 years ago with the earlier crop of Jets prospects.

I also hope Heinola gets a chance. But the current lineup will still prevent his chance pending a major slough of injuries.

Jeff Hamilton at the FP with a not so subtle dig at the Jets in today's article on the Banjo Bowl:

Quote:
There’s a bigger point here. It just goes to show that while winning definitely helps, you get what you put in. The Bombers have treated their fans with such appreciation over the years and they’re reaping that loyalty. There’s another pro franchise in this city that could learn a few things.
This is my first Jets season without season tickets. In my household, everyone loves to watch the Bombers games live. Besides my son and myself, it's like pulling teeth to get everyone out to Jets games, and wayyy more $$.

I love the Bombers and the Jets and all the home teams for that matter, but for sheer entertainment there can be no question that the Bombers are the kings of the hill right now. I took my family to the Banjo Bowl on Saturday and it was a pretty well perfect event as it is nearly every year. It's the single best annual sports event in Winnipeg. Great atmosphere as always, and a great performance by the home team capped it off. I could not ask for more. No question the Jets could take a lesson from the Bombers in terms of making fans feel appreciated.

Speaking of the Jets, is the work in the club area and north concourse of CLC finished yet? Has anyone seen it? I haven't been in there since the Sea Bears playoff game.

Agreed. He is not the most productive player, but he always looks like one of the hardest working players on the team.

Yeah, it's supposedly done where the Bud Lounge is. They are doing a private event next week to show it off.

Is Lowry the worst player in the league to be a captain currently? In terms of production I would say so.

Not to knock on him as he’s obv a good player, but a captain in today’s NHL is usually a PPG player or a top 10 d-man. Imo it should’ve been J-Mo.

I guess that seals Scheifele's fate. Kind of disappointing how it's all ending with 55.
