    Winnipeg Free Press https://www.winnipegfreepress.com/sports/hockey/jets/a-fleet-transformed-449138983.html A fleet transformed Just five members of the relocated Atlanta Thrashers are still flying Jets colours seven years later as the rebuilt youthful, speedy squadron prepares for takeoff with soaring expectations By: Jason Bell Let’s hop in the time machine and program the date to Oct. 9, 2011. Winnipeg is buzzing over the return of the NHL, and the puck is about to drop on the inaugural season of the Jets 2.0 at the barn on Portage Avenue. The Montreal Canadiens are the visitors as Bryan Little, Blake Wheeler, Andrew Ladd, Dustin Byfuglien and Toby Enstrom line up for the opening faceoff. A tall, slender teen named Mark Scheifele is on the bench during the national anthem and will make his NHL debut just 3:05 into the first period. Ondrej Pavelec guards the net, offering the last line of protection against the Habs. There’s great hope surrounding the former Atlanta Thrashers — an eclectic mix of veterans, including two with Stanley Cup rings, and a reasonable crop of talented youngsters. Much of that initial excitement is little more than misguided, blind faith in a team that possesses a few key pieces, but is severely short on roster depth and the prospects cupboard is nearly bare. The Montreal Canadiens bring a shot of reality to the thunderous, electrified celebration at the MTS Centre that historic Sunday afternoon, beating the Jets 5-1. Credit the transplanted group for finishing the season with a respectable 37-35-10 record in the Southeast Division, rocking it at home at 23-13-5.

  • MEDIA CLIPS Columbus Blue Jackets Vs
    MEDIA CLIPS Columbus Blue Jackets vs. Ottawa Senators February 24, 2020 Columbus Blue Jackets Blue Jackets hang tough again, get a point — and another loss By Brian Hedger – The Columbus Dispatch – February 22, 2020 NASHVILLE, Tenn. — The Blue Jackets will not change their style because of their injury glut, which now includes Oliver Bjorkstrand and Seth Jones out for the remainder of the regular season. John Tortorella, their tightly wound coach, made that abundantly clear in a pregame news conference Saturday night at Bridgestone Arena. "You’re asking me the same questions every (expletive) day," Tortorella said, when asked if his most inexperienced lineup to date might force a strategic change or two. "I have explained that already. I’ll say it one last time about this here. "We have changed our concentration right at the beginning of the year … so, are we changing? No. We are playing the way we have played for three months, and really, most of the year." No such guarantee, however, exists for results. And the Blue Jackets really needed some better results going into a game against the Nashville Predators, looking to end a seven-game losing streak (0-3-4) despite having yet another rookie, Calvin Thurkauf, make his NHL debut and icing a lineup with six of 18 skaters having American Hockey League experience this season. They didn’t get what the result they wanted, though, losing an eighth straight game with a 4-3 shootout loss decided by Rocco Grimaldi’s backhand shot in the bottom of the eighth round. It didn’t look good after the first 20 minutes, which the Predators dominated in almost all facets.

  • Both Sides Win: Why Using Mediation Would Improve Pro Sports
    Both Sides Win: Why Using Mediation Would Improve Pro Sports Mark Grabowski1 [email protected] Abstract Mediation, a type of alternative dispute resolution that utilizes a neutral outsider to facilitate a resolution for a conflict between two parties, is sel- dom used in American professional sports disputes. But the unique nature of such disputes, along with mediation’s success in ending the 2012-13 Na- tional Hockey League labor lockout, indicate that mediation should be used much more often, as opposed to the commonly used resolution methods of arbitration, litigation, and protracted negotiations. Mediation offers a fast, cost-saving method for settling virtually any kind of conflict. Its confiden- tial nature promotes open communication between the parties, which helps preserve, if not enhance, their working relationships. Although mediation will not fix every sports related dispute, it could improve player manage- ment relations as well as player performance, thereby bolstering fans’ confi- dence in pro sports.
