Maybe they'll actually fill stands this season

The long countdown is on for the 2nd relocation out of Winnipeg. Franchise values are at an insane place and the return on investment for the current Jets owners might be too much of a temptation to ignore down the road.

The market cannot afford today’s NHL ticket prices combined with a small building with nowhere near enough luxury suites and amenities to generate the revenue needed in the modern league spells long term doom for the market. AHL and WHL is their future.

Not having an airport exacerbates the situation.

They’re safe. The ownership is unaware of franchise ROI due to the lack of internet in Winnipeg.

Did you guys see that Thachuk goal yesterday? How the hell was that allowed? Then you have Perry not even touching CGY's goalie and we get it called back.

The fu**in rat bodychecks their goalie, THEN grabs his stick and takes it away, THEN is all over him in the crease hahahahaha and it was a goal

They need to get rid of the coaches challenge. It slows the game down and hurts offence. If it’s called a goal then it’s a goal regardless of the play was offside 2 minutes earlier or if the knob of a players stick grazed against the goalies blocker.
