The Winnipeg Jets and Calgary Flames are set to battle in the 2019 Tim Hortons NHL Heritage Classic on Saturday night outdoors at Regina’s Mosaic Stadium. In the lead-up to the festivities and in anticipation of a big increase in traffic along the Trans Canada Highway of fans making the drive for the game, the Jets have for Friday and Saturday setup a popup team store in the parking lot of Brandon’s Tim Hortons location on the Trans Canada.
On Friday afternoon until 3pm that included an appearance by none other than Mick E Moose and Benny, with both mascots posing for their share of pics as folks lined up for various merchandise being sold at the popup shop... many appearing on their way West themselves for tomorrow’s game.
