Yeah, reminder, Royal Pizza, Pizza Pass and so much more, Ebington owned and operated for over fifty-five years. If you don't like the host of the show, that would be me, you can blame Royal Pizza. They've been an advertiser of mine dating back to my Alberta Golden Bears days back in nineteen ninety-eight. So for twenty-six consecutive seasons. Royal Pizza's been on board, but I'll tell you, it just proves yet again radio works. They had three locations when they started advertising with us.
They're up to fourteen now in Ebenton. Find their menu in a list of their locations. It has nothing to do with the great pizza that they have. The star for recommendation at RoyalPizza.ca is the Mediterranean chicken. We head off to the River Cree Resort and Casino Hotline and welcome back. Winnipeg Jets reporter Jamie Thomas. He's a Witter Snow headliner today for Will Hawk beef jerky. It's the best you've ever tasted. Search for Will Hawk W I L H A U K today. Jamie, thank you for being patient. I know uh Jeff reached out to you a little early. How you doing, my man? What's going on?
Well, it was nice to hear about all the news that's going on in Edmonton. So it was it was nice to get a hole in here all that stuff that's going on in Oklahoma Town. So it's good.
Well, how about you? There we go. Uh well, you know what we're I I'm gonna tell you in about an hour and a half because as I sat there and got to look at the lineups and the Jets have got ten of their top twelve scores from last year's team, which won fifty two games they're playing, and the Oiters highest scoring player that's in the lineup tonight, Britt Kulak, finished twelfth in team scoring. Now some might say the Oiters are taking a proverbial pocket knife to a gunfight for an exhibition game. But That's kind of part of it, isn't it? Just th this happens. The home team generally speaking dresses the better squad.
How does Jamie Thomas explain the Jets’ split‑squad situation in the preseason?
Yeah, I I mean you I don't remember the last time the Jets have had a split squad game, so I've always wondered how did you guys handle the split squad situation for your broadcast. But I guess it's another story for another time.
Well, we we did the game at home. That that's how we handled it. So and then updated during the course of the game and once it got to four one for Calgary down on Calgary we stopped updating. That's not true. We kept on getting updated
scores.
All right, so tell me this. Uh Scott O'Neal's the new head coach here for the Jets, but he's not new to the Jets organization. Of course he was an assistant for Rick Bones. How much similar have you seen and I know I know you don't do a lot of system stuff in the preseason, but it's gotta be a little bit of uh comfort food for these Jet players that did win fifty two games in the regular season last year.
Yeah, like I mean it everyone's talking about, you know, why do you go out and do this and get this guy and this guy? Well, isn't when you win that many games a year ago, isn't continuity the best thing to do?
