What Can Kick the Night Off All Right? Some Links, Methinks
Yeah, there's a buttload of Jets-related articles going on and I don't want to Fan Shot them all. In lieu of doing that, I'm going for the rare (to this point) AIH Links post. Enjoy...
- Oh Boy, Oberto! Jets on the TeeVee! And my boombox! Big, 10-year deal with TSN and Sports Radio 1290 (home to our friends over at Illegal Curve) {Jets.Nhl.com}
- A few of the counterfeit jerseys identified by Rick Moldovanyi over at Houses of the Hockey. Quick tip that Rick forgot: don't buy from a guy named Snakes {Houses of the Hockey}
- Sara Orlesky is the new person to follow on Twitter, as she'll be the official TSN Jets reporter. Try not to be creepy, guys {Sara Orlesky}
- Bryan Little giving us some personality, both his own and of his teammates. Jim Slater's nickname should be "Hat" {Winnipeg Free Press}
- Not Jets-focused, but a great piece by James Mirtle giving Marc Savard's unfortunate news the appropriate treatment: placing him among the large group of veterans forced to retire due to concussions. It's not entirely avoidable, but it is a problem, folks {The Globe and Mail}
- I hate to leave you with a depressing one, so watch this video {YouTube}
- UPDATE: Okay, so maybe tonight will not be all right...terrible news out of Toronto, as Wade Belak was found dead in a hotel room. Best wishes to his friends and family. {National Post}

Terrible news
There are reports out stating that Wade Belak was found dead in his apartment complex.
I hope it isn’t true. =(

Now I’m hearing the same from Calgary Sun. Makes a rough summer for hockey fans even worse.

Bad news about Belak. I'm interested to see if there's a connection between the death and fighting, now with 3 tough guys dead this year.
On an unrelated note, I <3 Sara Orlesky.
