The NHL doesn't give two ####s about this game. Rogers has been promoting the heck out of it though.

The NHL bought the game, and makes all the money off it. Of course it cares.

The league knows that Winnipeg specifically, and Canada generally, will eat this game up.

I know we have still been sucking but I don't think the answer is playing Wideman on the top Pairing. That's borderline insane.
Yeah, what sort of idiot would put Wideman with Paul Coffey? Ridiculous.

I'm surprised they didn't find a way to get McDavid on the roster.

Why are there so many Coyotes players on that Winnipeg team?

Hey this is just like the 80's. Messier should have gotten a tripping penalty, the refs missed as it, goes the other way and Messier scores.

Okay I know it's supposed to be a fun happy-time game and all, and as a Flames fan I hate both the Jets and the Oilers, but I have to say that, in my heart, it makes me happy that when talking about western Canadian NHL teams, nobody even bothers to mention the Canucks.

Good to see the years haven't changed Esa Tikkanen at all, still an irritating pest.

oh oh 4-3. Smail should have made it 5-1 but hit the bar.

Roloson has made some nice saves in this period for the Oil.
