Fans honor Jets' new owners during anthem Thursday, 09.29.2011 / 3:02 PM / News By Adam Kimelman - NHL.com Staff Writer Winnipeg natives have been on a non-stop party since the day it was announced the Atlanta Thrashers were being re-located to Manitoba's capital city. And in the second preseason game played at the MTS Centre, the fans in attendance used a unique opportunity to pay tribute to the folks who brought the Jets back to Winnipeg. During the singing of "O' Canada" prior to the drop of the puck, fans singing along yelled extra loud when the line "true north" was sung. True North Sports & Entertainment is the company that owns the Jets. "I noticed that," said Mark Chipman, True North's Chairman of the Board. "That was very neat. Somebody mentioned something about that the other day, and I wasn’t sure what they were talking about. I get it now. That’s a very nice gesture." Evander Kane scored twice in a three-goal third-period outburst as the Jets beat the Carolina Hurricanes, 3-1. www.nhl.com/ice/news.htm?id=590393&cmpid=nhl-rxl-twt

I screamed it out at the 3rd game and everyone around me started laughing (or at least had huge smiles), didn't seem they all did it but I definitely heard them. Now if we could just get people to say it when its supposed to happen. TO me it felt like we were a half second late.
Like when you are using one of those long skipping ropes with a person on each end and your getting ready to jump in and you jump to late and hit the rope.

Jennifer Hanson should have been there tonight. I don't know if I'd say the new singer is brutal, but she's no JH. Kreviazuk pretty much demanded that she sing the anthem and she and Cuddy were pretty bad. Fortunately the fans knew the words and their performance didn't really matter all that much.
