So many interesting aspects of this match up between Tkachuk and the Jets.

Is Walt’s jersey retired there? He was a fan favourite back then.

Doesn’t he have a lot of family in Winnipeg? I think his mother is from there.

With those connections, they passed on him for Laine, wonder if that ever bothered Matthew.

Also funny that Wheelers’s last fight was in February against Brady, with same result, Wheeler ending up on his back.

NOn Tkachuk related, but I wonder if Laine took himself out of the game because he needs to save his hands to play video games.
