Jets name security dog in honour of superfan

Winnipeg Jets fans have chosen Lenny as the name for the final member of the National Hockey League team’s in-house security dog squad. It’s a tribute to superfan Len (Kroppy) Kropioski, who died in 2016 at the age of 98. Kropioski was a Second World War veteran who lived in Kenora, Ont., and made the two-and-ahalf-hour drive every home game to sit in the first row. The Jets security team already has two adult dogs and a trio of eight-week-old black Labrador retriever puppies who are being trained to sniff out bombs.
