Winnipeg Jets going into the 24/25 season

Barring any more injuries, we now know pretty much the roster we will have for the opening game. We even know pretty much what the lineup for that game will be. Only Kupari and Fleury are a little uncertain.

How do people really feel about this team for the regular season? PO is a separate discussion, as we have seen the last couple of years.

I look back at a 4th place finish, and at having flirted with 1st OA for a while and feel some optimism. But then I think of losing Brossoit and Dillon. That could = the loss of 10 games compared to last year, especially if Helle is even slightly less than Vezina calibre. 10 fewer wins gives us 90 pts. That misses the PO.

So ceiling of President's Trophy and floor of high draft pick. And I really don't know where to predict on that scale. I guess cautious optimism for the time being.

I see us in around 98 points plus or minus a couple.

I think we are a 3-4 team in our division unless we get a couple younger guys going off in Cole, Vilardi etc.

If I had a bit more talent I would get a prediction thread (poll) started now that we are ready to get our season started. Not sure how to do polls though.

My poll categories would be (106 points or greater, 100-105, 93-99, sub 93). If someone would insert a poll I would start the thread.

Done.
