What a Season!

[Jetsetter]

I couldn't think of a worse way to end the season! My heart goes out to Mark! BUT WHAT AN INCREDIBLE SEASON TO BE A JETS FAN!

 

[razorsedge]

It was a great season. Not many nights I was annoyed after watching a Jets game. Sucks going out this early in the playoffs, but that game 7 in the first round will be a phenomenal memory for a long time for me.

 

[Tasteless Beaver]

This team has a lot to be proud of, and this year was a step in the right direction. Chevy is making good moves where it counts and we're built to work together and be winners.. We can't win them all, but it's just a matter of time until our time comes.

 

[King Woodballs]

All in all was a pretty good season.
Presidents trophy winners. Fought hard in the playoffs.
Injuries finally caught up to them.
Not much you can do about that sometimes.
Here’s to a productive offseason!

 

[Turin]

Honestly the first Jets team I found to be genuinely really likable since like 2018. After 2018 you had the Trouba drama and then the Wheeler drama and Buff retired and then Maurice quit and it just was not great vibes. Then Bowness gets the team to play boring but effective for the regular season hockey but is maddening with his player usage and you can always tell they're not playing a winning style. Like last year they were a likable group but the coaching just wasn't it and everybody sort of knew it.

Finally this year they were cooking all season and genuinely were both 1. good and 2. fun to watch and 3. likable as a group of guys. More of that please.

Team took a good step forward, but still needs changes but I’m not going to talk about that personally yet. I want to let the dust and emotions settle before talking changes.

 

[FlyerNutter]

Fun ride for sure.

We should known better than anyone how hard it is to advance even a round in the playoffs.

Nobody expects acquisitions like Rantanen, and Granlund but I really do hope they find a way to add something to the team next season. This core is decent, the goalie is solid. Give them more of a chance.

I was pretty impartial to 55 before today, he gained a true fan in me tonight. Mad respect.

 

[kanadalainen]

Really enjoyed this year.. one of the best years for the Jets, and my appreciation was honed for all the reasons mentioned above. This team has great vibes and with a few small changes will be a beast yet again.

Yep, me too. Scheifele is an incredible player, and a great person.

 

[FlappyGiraffe]

Really proud of this team - an unforgettable Winnipeg sports moment in game 7 and a banner that will hang in Canada life forever

 

[Flair Hay]

The guys will be holding their heads high all off-season.

This feels like a bit of a Carolina situation. Our club knows we can hang with the best in the post season now and even carry the play against them.

Dallas is hella experienced and they were able to be patient and deep enough that they could get away with us carrying play a bit more and being ready for being opportunistic. Kudos to them. Their experience helped them get through us.

More than anything, the situation with Scheif and his Dad only showed how the stuff about being a family is very real. These guys love each other man. They showed they can play as a team and play a ridiculously detailed game.

Go Jets Go

That was a great season with major accomplishments. The best team in the league this year, and I wouldn't have thought that before the season started. It would have been nice to go further in the tournament, but it's a dmmn hard thing to win

 

[VictoriaJetsFan]

This team brought it every night through the entire year. It was exceptional growth and they gave us a playoff series for the ages in round 1.

Dalls was deeper at forward and the second line centre issue caught up with us. But that's for later.

RIP Brad Schiefele.

They battled hard, they never quit, I don't know what more we could have asked.

I was getting divorced in 2018 and life was pretty bad.

This time around I watched playoff games with my son, this will be my favourite year for a helluva long time.

 

[purdy44]

Sorry, but Cup or bust. Seeing that President's Trophy banner in the building will bring up game 7 magic for most, but for me it's a reminder of how bad we were most games this postseason. Perfetti's goal is like Bautista's batflip: meaningless. I realize I'm more negative than most on here, so I will end with something we can all agree on: Scheifele brought out the best in sportsmanship in the absolute worst of circumstances. RIP Brad; I know you'd have been real proud.

 

[bumblebeeman]

Ya great year. It's nice to see some postivity here, except the post before mine haha. Those last two losses were total coin flip games to me, really could have gone either way just needed a bounce or two. It easily could've been the Jets moving on this game, but so it goes with hockey. Hopefully they come back next year hungry and with a re-signed Ehlers!

 

[jetsforever]

Definitely one of the best Jets 2.0 seasons ever (I'd probably put it at worst top-2 with 2017-18)
We had a fantastic team and we had many fun games
Won the Presidents' Trophy!!
Beat the Blues including one of the best game 7s of all time
Took a great Dallas team to 6 hard-fought games and got people talking about the Winnipeg Jets

 

[The Blue Baron]

Is was very enjoyable indeed all in all. Especially during a particularly persistent winter. Jets brought loads of joy to me. Should be very strong next season!

 

[Xavier Laflamme]

The Manitoba Miracle was something else, we nor the rest of the hockey world will ever forget that moment and that alone makes this a fantastic season, but yes the regular season was good but obviously disappointing end when that Dallas series was incredibly winnable.

But they will live and learn, I expect better showing next post season, just gotta make sure Chevy makes the right moves now.

 

[PhilJets]

AS A FAN, you are always defleated when season’s end specially because of the regular season the team had.

The team that beat the Jets loaded up .
A bounce or two it could have been a different series. That kicked goal seems so big now , but we can’t what if.

The core has a couple more peak years left, depends if Ehlers resign. Wishing.

Some of the young guns will need to step up more this year.

I’m very optimistic next year barring what happens with Ehlers.

Jets will be a good team again. Can’t wait for the season starts again.

Hopefully Arniel wins the Coach of the year like Deboer said on his interview.


GO JETS GO

 

[Daximus]

It was a great year all in all. This post season did have it's incredible moments and disappointments but we are heading in the right direction. Hopefully the management team has noted the areas we need improvement in and will be committed to making those improvements for next year. We have the potential to be right back here again next season so it's on them to get us there. The expectations will now be much higher and hopefully everyone is on the same page.

 

[ps241]

This was my favorite season by quite a bit. I loved 2017-18 but losing four strait to Vegas left a really bitter taste in my mouth and it has never gone away. That kind of set the tone for more than a half decade where an internally embattled team would often reach the playoffs just to get rolled in 4 strait (after one win) with some sort of player drama (Trouba, Buff hitting the wall, Laine, PLD).

Not this season though. Right from the start it was different. The journey was pretty much as good as it gets and our team seemed to answer every challenge. Everyone bought in from day one and that led to a Presidents trophy out of the smallest, coldest, least desirable market to free agents which is a major accomplishment. Then it was off to the playoffs and we finally had a team with heart that fought for each other. My son was old enough (grade 11) to go to the street party with his friends, he was there for the miracle game 7 win that will go down in history. My daughter and her mom were in the seats while I was sick but watching at home. Who will ever forget that one. Lastly we had a great series with Dallas and we finally fought until the end and suffered a stinging loss in OT. We finally didn’t quit and the team restored my hope that we can win it all if we can get a bounce at the right time.

Thanks Arnie and the coaches for crushing it. Thanks to the ownership group for at least trying to improve the game day experience, the food, and being a bit more fan friendly. You are directionally correct now, keep grinding. Thanks mostly to the fans for the White out magic that finally provided the home ice advantage. You are smart (should have kicked it), loyal (MVP to the end), and you put your best foot forward for our city.

I won’t forget this season ever and that is coming from a guy that hates to lose. Only one team gets to lift the cup but finally a Jets team that never gave up! I am incredibly proud of them and the memories they created for me and my family.

Jets exceeded expectations by a mile.
Playoff wins were gutsy and there was pushback which is what we all wanted.
Zero complaints.

 

[Channelcat]

It's always disappointing to see it end, but I think major steps forward were made. We may have won the Presidents trophy, but as Arny said, Dallas was right there with us all season, then made the huge acquisitions. Winning in the playoffs is a step by step process and Dallas has paid their dues in recent years having been to the western final 3 years in a row, and the SCF final in 2020. Mostly I wanted to see progress and we certainly saw that. This Jets team went down fighting as opposed to most other seasons with a whimper.

 

[johnnyonthspot]

I guess at the end of the day this season was about progress as many have already pointed out. They were obviously lucky to make it to the second round and unfortunate to lose the series based on injuries, road woes and yesterday's tragic event.
They have learned to be a regular season beast and hopefully , will learn from this playoff run what it takes to be a playoff beast.

 

[bustamente]

Yes everyone is disappointed but don't anybody get it twisted it was a hell of a season with many enjoyable moments, multiple winning streaks, shutouts, and you top is off with a President's Trophy. Absolutely the best regular season ever for a Jets team of any era.
