Sel8nne, a Finnish documentary about hockey legend Teemu Selanne, gets its Canadian première Tuesday and Wednesday, Jan. 6-7 at the Park Theatre. The film screens twice each night at 6:30 p.m. and 9:30 p.m.

The screenings come days before the Anaheim Ducks retire his jersey in a ceremony set in Anaheim for Jan. 11.

Selanne played four memorable seasons in Winnipeg, from 1992 to 1996, setting the NHL record for goals by a rookie in one season with 76 in the 1992-93 campaign.

The subtitled film by director J.P. Silii has been lauded by Selanne himself, who says it had “to be honest and right, otherwise it’s not worth it,” Selanne told the Finnish website mtv3.fi last year. “We can see things in the movie that you wouldn’t see otherwise.”

Tickets are $13 and are available online at www.parktheatrecafe.com or at the door.

Winnipeg business closure scare leads Hydro to reschedule planned outage

Free Press staff 2 minute read Updated: Yesterday at 8:19 PM CDT

Manitoba Hydro has cancelled a planned River Heights neighbourhood outage after a miscommunication led to area businesses fearing unexpected closure.

Hydro had planned to shut down power along Lanark and Renfrew streets between Corydon Avenue and John Brebeuf Place on Friday.

Overhead electrical maintenance work can only be done with the power off, during the day, for safety reasons, Hydro spokesman Peter Chura said. It chose Friday from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. because St. John Brebeuf School had an in-service day.

However, the affected area houses a strip of businesses including a Royal Bank of Canada, eateries, shops, services such as physiotherapy and a medical centre.

It’s the ultimate Manitoba mash-up: Cottage country meets hockey heaven.

And it will be the central theme for the 2026 Tim Hortons NHL Heritage Classic, which features the Winnipeg Jets and Montreal Canadiens facing off Sunday evening at Princess Auto Stadium.

“We’re really excited about this one. It pops. It looks amazing. We think this is one of our better-looking field designs,” Steve Mayer, the president of NHL content and events, told reporters this week as preparation of the outdoor rink and related components reached a fever pitch.

“We want people to walk in the stadium and go, ‘Wow.’”
