Great to see! I love when clubs promote their history (although never been a fan of sweater retirement, to be frank).

Thoughts on who else is likely to get in?

For goaltenders, here's the top ten list of career regular season Goals Above Replacement (WHA + NHL combined):

GOALTENDER|CAREER GAR
Bob Essensa |182
Joe Daley |171
Ernie Wakely |59
Ondrej Pavelec |59
Nikolai Khabibulin |48
Markus Mattsson |48
Doug Soetaert |38
Daniel Berthiaume |35
Brian Hayward |28
Gary Bromley |28

Pretty short top-two list (weird trivia: the Jets have had 39 goaltenders in their history. 15 of them have a career Jets GAR below zero).

Daley's got to go first, given his role on three AVCO Cup teams. Then Essensa, then no goalies for a long time?

Ok Doc, how long have you followed Winnipeg? Did you follow them in 1979-80?

What was the story with Craig Norwich that year? He led Jets DMen in scoring and had best +\- of D and disappeared after...lol. He was 24 years so what happened?
