Many fans were shocked by the price of the mini hot dog, with some emphasizing the exorbitant costs of food and drinks at sporting events. One fan shared a "life hack."

"Simple life hack you all might want to try. I’ve been doing this for years, and it’s saved me a fortune. What I do is, I eat dinner at home before the game. Then I don’t need to buy overpriced food at the arena’s concession stands."

Another fan humorously remarked on the portion size:

"You could fit the 14 french fries for $8 from the Canucks arena into the other half of that container for the ultra disappointing combo."

Winnipeg Jets lose 4-3 to the Edmonton Oilers

Zach Hyman scored his 51st goal of the season to secure a 4-3 overtime victory for the Edmonton Oilers over the struggling Winnipeg Jets, who suffered their fourth consecutive loss.

Hyman's winning goal was his 200th career goal, extending his four-game scoring streak. Connor Brown also scored for the Oilers, as did Leon Draisaitl and Ryan Nugent-Hopkins.

Despite a strong rally in the third period with goals from Brenden Dillon and Sean Monahan, the Jets couldn't avoid defeat. Winnipeg Jets head coach Rick Bowness expressed mixed feelings:

"The first period shows you how good we can be and then the second period just shows you how bad we are when we get away from the way we’re supposed to play."

The Winnipeg Jets will look to bounce back against the Vegas Golden Knights in their next game.
