It’s Time To Give Some Love To Bryan Little
With the NHL Trade deadline a little over a month away, I am seeing an increasing number of people calling for the Jets and Cheveldayoff to make another move for a second line center to hopefully get Laine going once again. For the entirety of the season, Laine has been on a line with Little…

It’s Time to Cool it with the Laine Slander

Certainly,…

WWYDW: What To Do About Defense?
The blue line always seems to be a hot spot for debate when it comes to the Winnipeg Jets.
