Winnipeg Hockey Talk’s Favourite Tweets Of The Week #5

WHT’s faves of the week-

These Tweets caught my eye. Some were funny and some were informative and some weren’t even about hockey. Please don’t be upset if I include the odd Tweet of my own.

I won’t put up with ads on NHL jerseys. Especially when I go to Canada Life Place to sit in the Budweiser Section and watch the pre-game show brought to you by Coca Cola before the Winnipeg Jets compete against a Scotiabank Division rival. No way.

Afghanistan is a political and humanitarian disaster. Haiti is in the same boat. Siberia burns. Wildfires in North America have blanketed our city with smoke. Please @elonmusk take me to Mars. Lol

Oh good news! Raphael Dolis is still a member of the Blue Jays organization! Apparently none of the other 29 teams thought he was worth claiming. 🙄

There is a cap of 15,000 fans at BMO Field today, or as the Argos call it, a regular home game.

Steve Simmons of Postmedia Tranna on attending the Argos-Bombers skirmish at BMO Field on Saturday: “Getting in an out was easy.” Well duh. The official head count was 9,866 in a 25,000-seat facility. It’s not like they were trying to squeeze 24 circus clowns into a VW Beetle.
