It was a loss, but more than anything it was a monumental lost opportunity.
And if the Winnipeg Jets season comes to an end in the next week, a lot sooner than a city draped in white is hoping, it will be the events of Thursday night at Bell MTS Place — and Nashville Predators goalie Pekka Rinne’s Immaculate Butt-end, in particular — that will haunt fans for years to come.
It is impossible to overstate just how costly the Jets 2-1 loss to Nashville in Game 4 of their best-of-seven series is to this city’s chances of seeing a Stanley Cup hoisted at Portage and Main next month.
