Hockey doesn't belong below the Mason Dixon, and the Atlanta Thrashers will be the Jets and hopefully by next seasons start. Great news!!

Last I heard no deal had been reached.

If they do move, are we going to have a year in the same division as the Jets before they reconfigure the conferences?

I would be nice to not have so many games in the Pacific Time Zone. Staying up til midnight for hockey is nuts.

It didn't sound like they would be called the Jets again either. I was told Manitoba Moose would be more likely. The Manitoba Moose of the AHL (who used to be the Minnesota Moose) may have to move again.

I'm warming up to the idea of being a Winnipeg fan. I just couldn't get behind the Wild as much as other Minnesota teams.

Yeah, Brooksy, I'm in the same boat. Once the North Stars went to Texas, pro hockey was pretty much over for me. Does Texas need hockey, and does hockey need Texas? Not so much. crazy

I've been all around Dallas a bunch of times. Big city, big attitude, big ego, small penis. No stars visible. Just saying.

On behalf of the hopefully soon to be new NHL franchise north of the 49th, I thank you for your support! Go Manitoba.....?????

Manitoba Moose? What the hell is that? Sounds like a whole team of enforcers with no one to put the puck in the net! Winnipeg Jets or bust!

Announcement yesterday in Winnipeg - the Thrashers are moving to Winnipeg to begin play next season.

Ice fishing Lake Winnipeg and catch a hockey game while we are there sounds like a great trip for next winter.

Looks like they are waiting to restructure the West until they get a new CBA in place. We have another year in the NW and the Jets (hopefully they keep the name!) will be in the SW that year as well.

Only one more year of having to watch games that start at 9:30PM! YEAH!

They will be in the SE division for next year at least. After that who knows.

The name will most likely change and they haven't announced anything yet but word is they are definitely considering the Jets.

I haven't been to an NHL game since the Jets left - maybe next year I will go back.

I stay up late so watching the games after the wife and kids have gone to bed is MINT!!! Same with the Twins I love the West coast swings in the summer no interuptions and if I'm out camping I can listen to them around the fire at night.....doesn't get much better than that.

      Nice!   It would be great if they had some kind of brake, so you don't end up on your neighbors YouTube video going down the driveway! 😆

      Last month I went searching online for a trailer jack with pneumatic tires. Instead I found the video below showing a relatively quick and easy upgrade to your existing jack:     It's worked pretty well. I definitely had to mess around with finding the right combination of spacers, washers, and locknut pressure that wouldn't bind up the wheels. However, it is a pretty sweet setup and allows me much better control. We live at the end of a half-alley. My garage faces the end so when I need to hook my boat up to the truck, I have to pull it out into my driveway and then swivel it 180 degrees to face towards the street. The handle is what really makes the difference and now the trailer jack wheels don't slide on the asphalt. Has anyone else done this conversion?

      I've got a pile of crawlers ready to go - a nice side benefit of all the rain in the metro lately.   At the very least, I hope that the remaining trappers are making some better money off of the higher prices. I would think that it would be a great way for local kids to make some cash. I can see why it wouldn't make for a great way to make a living as an adult.

      Went out yesterday with the sunshine. I did find crappies in the shallows on a darker stained lake with Temps at 58 degrees. They had no interest in my baits

      That's part of it.  Several recent years of drought have definitely played a role.   There's other factors too.  MN does not allow importation of live bait from other states either.  That really affects the amount of golden shiners available, most of which are not trapped here.  In other words, demand exceeds supply.   Lots of bait trappers and dealers have simply hung it up in recent years.  Its hard work for not much money.  The two nearest me are both done as of last October.  They both told me its just not worth it anymore.  One of them had been there for 45 years.   My advice would be to learn how to effectively fish with artificial lures more often.  I've slowly weened myself off the use of live bait nowadays.

      Think the Free crawlers in the back yard are going to take a hit this summer! 🤭

      Correction, rainbow minnows are at least 75 cents each, and leeches are $60 per pound. lol

      Their coming! Was poking around southern center mn last Friday and found about 20 on a hill side, all to small to pick yet.  Spots on the GPS! 🤗

      Water Temps 48-52. I tried for crappies and caught two walleye. I can't even crappie fish. 1/32 ounce jig and a tiny minnow
