I make ice cream and tweet about mostly Jets hockey and sometimes nerdy things and theme parks

First home game since April 10, 2011 #NHLJets #gojetsgo

@ShutdownLine I was sitting about 9 rows back behind the goal when he scored that and absolutely lost my mind, especially since I thought he had messed up by not shooting it after the first deke

[Simon McLane @paltrywriter]

@Coaster101 Pre Goliath I believe it was some mix of The Great Gasp & Looping Starship. Then after Goliath that area was originally extended queue space and the covered area you walk through now I think was a drink stand?

@IAmMiamiFL @CoasterRoadTrip The ride was closed last year too to work on that specific issue and it did seems to spin alright after the fix then. So idk if the fix failed or of there is a separate issue with the trains now that they have to figure out.

[Simon McLane @paltrywriter]

@IAmMiamiFL @CoasterRoadTrip That's pretty much it for the spinning issue. At media day for the ride the maintenance team at SFoG said the issue was that things weren't scaled up properly to account for the increase in size & weight from the half-pipe model.

[Scott Billeck @ScottBilleck]

The Viggo pick is solid. Now, the hard part begins: ensuring he doesn’t die off with the Moose. Time to start trusting the youth you draft, and developing it better.

@Middy115 Just putting it out there to guarantee that it won't happen 😁

[Simon McLane @paltrywriter]

I know a lot of people are thinking the 4th in a Hellebuyck deal.... But what a about the 4th to Detroit, Larkin to Dallas, Robertson to Buffalo. Add what ever picks and other pieces to make it all work. Assuming Robertson would be willing to sign in Buffalo

[NHL News @PuckReportNHL]

⚠️ In addition to trading Bowen Byram to #Blackhawks for a reported package that includes the 4th overall pick, the #Sabres have another separate deal in the works, per @CMDeDominicis.

@CoasterCarolina SFoG. They took it out when they built Dare Devil Dive

[Simon McLane @paltrywriter]

@DarrenRoss74 @ConnorHrabchak1 Here's hoping everyone thinks his play is a result of Stenberg so they pass on him until 8 🤞

[Simon McLane @paltrywriter]

@wpgfeasey Paper Wings, Give it All, Savior, & Satellites are the easy picks.

After that I could pick any of Rumors of My Demise, Anyway you Want It, Swing Life Away, Chamber the Cartridge, Injection, or This is Letting Go.

[Simon McLane @paltrywriter]

@ZP33T @sfovergeorgia The queue for Pandemonium is the worst designed queue at SFoG

[Simon McLane @paltrywriter]

@NikSmiith I don't know that foot looks a little too aggressive to be KC's 🤣

[eoghanisowen @eoghanisowen]

@NikLynam @ralphmurlax POMO looks unbound in FLA & Bones came to WPG talking about 55sec shifts before his wings got clipped & then there were suggestions he'd be fired after talking about pushback. Meanwhile Arnie has been a perfect company man. There is something in all this that isn't speculation.

[Simon McLane @paltrywriter]

Holy crap just met another fan wearing a Jets jersey at the VGK CBJ game!

[Simon McLane @paltrywriter]

Even if it's not the Jets live NHL hockey is still live NHL hockey

[Simon McLane @paltrywriter]

@NikLynam Subbed!

[Simon McLane @paltrywriter]

@marcusleshock @Dollywood One of the most underrated woodies & possibly the most underrated night rides out there!

[Simon McLane @paltrywriter]
