On today’s show, the guys reminisce about “Scoreburn’s” time with the Jets and they also look at whether or not records should be kept based on a franchise regardless of where it plays, or if records should be based on the individual locations city.
They also look at the Winnipeg Jets’ Christmas wishlist, and how the Jets goalies have been playing lately.
