IN THIS PODCAST: Paul Edmonds, the play-by-play announcer for the Winnipeg Jets (and all around good sport) joins IT2 to talk about an stunner event at last night’s game.

“Hey, who’s this guy?” an announcer joked.
That guy was Scott Foster, the team’s

, a 36-year-old accountant who hadn’t played in a high-stakes hockey game in more than 10 years. He played hockey for Western Michigan University
from 2002 to 2005
