Well that is the latest report from the Globe and Mail. Here is a good summary of the situation as of Friday, May 21, 2011.

I believe that the NHL is coming back to Winnipeg, but it is not official yet. I feel badly for Atlanta - it hurt when the Jets left Winnipeg back in 1996. I attended the last game - a losing playoff effort against the mighty Detroit Red Wings back in April of that year. My daughter Alex and I was there to celebrate the team and mourn their loss. Alex was only six at the time, but a big fan even then and she still is a big fan. My son Reid is excited to have the team coming back too.
This has nothing to do with braces or orthodontics except that like braces, hockey is designed to improve people's lives. NHL hockey will bring more fun to the City of Winnipeg and that means more smiles. So I guess there is a connection after all.
Have a great long weekend! It is the official start of the summer for us and I hope it is a great one for everyone!
Go Jets!

About Me
- Dr. John Campbell
- I was born and raised in Winnipeg. Dentistry is in my blood. My grandfather, Fred Campbell, owned and operated a dental lab in Winnipeg. My father, Dr. William Campbell, or Bill, was an orthodontist until he retired in 1989. I used to hang around the office and I caught the bug. I graduated from The University of Manitoba with my D.M.D. in 1981. I spent one year interning at The Children’s Hospital Dental Program. I decided to be an orthodontist like my father – he loved his job and that was good enough for me. I received my orthodontic education at the University of Manitoba Graduate Orthodontic Program I love technology. More than technology, I am interested in getting better – I want to improve the service we provide to our patients, parents and their dentists, because a healthy smile is a team effort. My goal and that of my staff is never to stop getting better. I have two wonderful children. My daughter Alex is in third year Engineering at the University of Manitoba and my son Reid is in his first year of University and interested in geology. I am very happy that both of my kids are excited about the possibilities for education and technology as I am.
