Whiteout is for playoff's only boys.

Other than opening night I agree, whiteout is playoffs only.

This, however, is a once in a lifetime event.. I for one will be wearing my white Bobby Hull jersey to the game.

This will be one of the biggest Winnipeg Jets games we'll ever see. I'll go out on a limb and say it will be the last whiteout worthy regular season game ever..

I don't know the right thread to post this in, so I will put it here.

What I think would be great, is if someone that sits in the first row of the upper deck brought a huge "Our Jets Will Fly Forever" banner and draped it over the top like someone did 15 years ago.

That image has been used a lot in the time since, and IMO it would be cool to see it again, albeit now with a different meaning.

I've been thinking that for years, I've been talking to friends with upper deck tickets. None have front row seats.

If someone on here has seats that could make it work PLEASE get on this

Cool, I didn't know if I was the only one.

I really hope someone can make it happen. That sign last time was huge!!

I think if I saw that sign while I was singing O Canada at the top of my lungs that I might have a tear in my eye.

I think most of the crowd will have that same tear in their eyes.

Since this game is tomorrow (WOW), I'm bumping this.

I will be in white and I hope my fellow fans are in white too. Whiteout is for playoffs - but I think this is the big exception.

This game will remind the hockey world what they were missing having Winnipeg out of the league.

Let's show them how it's done with some White Noise.

They should hang it from the rafters in tribute to all the fans who never stopped loving their Winnipeg Jets.
