Saw the news earlier today and now Cincinnati has confirmed that former Jets forward Alexander Burmistrov has signed in the ECHL for the upcoming season.

Which gives me a reason to use one of the best Jets 2.0 videos of all-time. Still makes me laugh.

“Exciting. Exciting. This has, over the last four or five years, become a second home to me, so I’m very happy to be here and represent the Winnipeg Jets for another two years.”

How strong does @Scouching view the Winnipeg Jets’ prospect system?

In the latest Prospect Pyramid, every prospect is slotted into a tier, giving a clear picture of the pipeline, from the most promising young players to those still finding their place.

One of the best spots to watch the horses run @AssiniboiaDowns as we took in 11th running of the Phil Kives Stakes.

I was fortunate to know Phil & always enjoyed spending time with him at the track (and the softball field).

This is such a great way to spend a night in Winnipeg.

“….that’s what I love so much about Winnipeg and why I always come back home. You can’t replace this. You can’t replace home. It’s just amazing.”

First person in line to meet Stanley Cup champ Seth Jarvis arrived at 5:30 AM (doors opened at 1 PM)

“Nothing will ever compare to that time. When I lifted that first time, it’s 37 pounds or something but it felt like a feather”

Seth Jarvis asked to compare touching the Stanley Cup again with the first time he raised it after their Game 6 win.

“It’s really cool. Especially when they explained that it’ll be on there for 60 more years. It’s amazing to be part of such a historic trophy”

The smile didn’t leave the face of Stanley Cup champion Seth Jarvis the entire time he was meeting with folks for his day with the cup.

Asked him if he’s ever smiled that much before?

“No. But it was incredible to share with the community”

@HG_too_old Brown and Freij will likely be with Moose for most of their first full season in Winnipeg.

Phillips is primarily a left side guy (although he did play 7 or so games on right).

Right now I’d say St. Ivany is his biggest competition (with Salomonsson presumably injured).

[Dave Minuk @ICdave]

As I somewhat expected the Jets tag on a one-way to the end of the two-year deal they signed with Tyrel Bauer.

That’s the final RFA of the summer for Winnipeg.

@Carolinabelle96 You’re very welcome!

[Dave Minuk @ICdave]

“I just want to make people smile. It���s cool the power that thing has and what it can do for people…”

A Stanley Cup champion only gets so much time with the Cup.

Seth Jarvis began his day by bringing it to the Children’s Hospital of Winnipeg.
