That would also be Winnipeg Jets legend Chris Jericho.
Jericho’s (real name Chris Irvine) father Ted, who was from Winnipeg, played in the NHL from the late 1960s to the late 1970s, and played for the Rangers in the early 1970s. The elder Irvine then moved his family back to Winnipeg after his playing career, hence Chris Jericho’s rooting interest in both the Rangers and Jets.

YOU’RE ON THE LIST!
The man of a 1004 holds. ARM BAR…
As someone who’s never watched hockey, I’m not sure how to react, but congrats Chris!
Guess we can blame Jericho for all the heart palpitations and Stanley Cup droughts, but we still love him.
The Walls of Jericho on ice would be quite impractical.
