Jason Heynsbroek is a big Spits fan who recently had eye surgery in London. @miketendy wanted to come let him know he and his family are going to be Season Ticket Members for the 2018-19 season! He was clearly surprised. Nice work by Mom and Dad to keep the secret!

The Spitfires have been eliminated from the 2023 OHL Playoffs. That’s no generic 8th seed out there. The Rangers have a very good team over there. They loaded up and it paid off. Congrats to the Rangers on advancing in the playoffs and best of luck. @OHLRangers #OHLPlayoffs

Just wasn’t meant to be. A lot of ups and downs, a challenging season with the most man games missed in the entire OHL and still finished first in the West. A lot to be proud of. An underwhelming playoffs, but we will be back. ❤️. Thank you Spitfires Fans! #WindsorSpitfires
