Greg Ellingson announces his retirement with Ottawa. He had a good connection with Zach in his short stint in Wpg. unfortunately injury and the arrival of Dalton Schoen made him expendable.

Went a few weeks ago, no line up at the drive thru so I thought ***, giver a shot.

Worst decision this year.  Handful of cars in the lineup, took over half an hour to get to the window.  Got there, and they had no idea what my order was.  So I placed it again.  There were a lot (5-7) staff mulling around the window, 3 different people "waited" on me, sat AT the window 10 more minutes to get a beef and cheddar, curly fries and drink (no shakes, even though they are on the menu boards). 

Looks like they were waiting for curly fries, my sandwich sat on the counter most of the 10 minutes, and I had to ask 3 times for them to give me my drink as I waited.  Once the fries were up, it took another couple minutes for them to take fries to the counter before filling my order.

I've worked in many fast food environments, and had I been working in there I literally would have strangled someone.  Nothing but confusion, no leadership, no structure, and after all was said and done, it was an expensive m'eh experience food wise.

I guess the old saying stands, you can still make a good business waiting on every different person once. Until I hear they have new staff and that the experience is better, they got my one sale.

Lots of concerning issues, but they managed the win.  Must be deflating for the Blues to start that good and then have the Jets just take over.

We are definitely missing 13 and 27, but the next men up did well.  28 and 19 stepped into the lineup and 62 and 9 move up without issue.

Hope they come out and dominate from the get go on Monday, we will need a dominating win going to St. Louis...

Quote from: Pigskin on April 20, 2025, 07:51:23 AMWell, Winnipeg fans love there Jets and a good white out. The Arena was very loud tonight.

The Jets came out a little slow and took to many penalties. PK had a rough night. FO circle we got dominated. 2nd. line  forgot to show up tonight.

On the bright side, we only played 30 minutes of good hockey and still won. 81/55/9, had a very good game.

Need a better start in game #2. 
Ya, the line of 81-55-9 was dominating every time they were on the ice, the game goes into another gear when they're on the ice.

Decided to stop at Arby's on Sterling Lion today. Really not a great experience. The seating is very tight, and the booth are very small. The place is also very dirty. No one cleaning tables, and the garbage over flowing.

The chicken sandwich is terrible. A couple of chicken fingers on a bun. The bun was soft, but the chicken was over cooked.

The Classic Roast Beef Sandwich was okay. The bun was fresh and the roast beef was good, but they didn't have any BQ sauce.

The famous Curly Fries. Well there wasn't very many of them that were curly. A bunch of U shaped fries.

Jets started off nervous and for the first 2 periods the blues were taking it to us-3 goals on 10 shots yikes!!

Completely dominated the 3rd period and pulled away, need to pick up where we left off for next game
