San Jose Sharks players slam 'cold and dark' Winnipeg as worst NHL city to play in
Heres the video where the Sharks discuss the realites of playing in Winnipeg.
https://twitter.com/NBCSSharks/statu...55518831177728
Then an article discussing the video and the resulting butthurtness.

Quote:
Some San Jose Sharks have snapped at Winnipeg, deriding the city as their least favourite one to visit.
In a video posted to the Twitter page for NBC Sports California, before the game on Sunday, Sharks' sniper Tomas Hertl said he doesn't like the city because "it's so cold and dark there."
Defenceman Justin Braun echoed those remarks, adding that the hotel the team stays at is "questionable" and wondering if Winnipeg has Wi-Fi yet.
Tim Heed, another defenceman, also ranked Winnipeg at the bottom of the heap.
The team was in the city on Sunday for a game against the Jets, who soundly defeated them 4-1.
A spokesperson for the Winnipeg Jets said the club has seen the video but preferred to not respond specifically about it. Scott Brown did, however, say he is quite aware of some people's erroneous views of the city.

Justin Braun is from a winter wonderland in Minnesota called White Bear Lake. Not sure if he's the right guy to be dishing this out.

He grew up by Eklund and Swetlund, which is closer to Moose Lake, so I made that assumption.

Next time in Winnipeg The Sharks need to get a concierge. A concierge is the Manitoba equivalent of a geisha.

Were they staying at the Fort Gary Hotel? That place might be questionable.

They might have a hard time winning there in the future with those comments lol. Maybe the Jets pulled a Belichek on them to throw them off their game...

Maybe your franchise should win a playoff game before making these kinda statements...
Lets get real here, Winnepeg is the worst city in the NHL

Edmonton being a pretty close second

The Shark Tank is one of the worst NHL venues for TV viewing. The angles are terrible and tt seems like you are seeing the game from the moon. So i'd rather the Sharks always play the Jets in Winnipeg where the TV production is drastically better.
