Expect a 'Whiteout' to smash downtown Winnipeg on Wednesday and Friday nights this week.
The Jets kick off the 2018-19 Stanley Cup playoffs Wednesday, at 7 p.m. at Bell MTS Place when they host the St. Louis Blues in Game 1 of the opening round.
And that means a repeat of the Whiteout street parties downtown, which drew thousands of people downtown during last year's playoffs.
