Couple things to like. One the primary colour os the Jets v2 logo are being used properly here even if grey is as boring as it get. The hockey stick connects with the outside of the logo.

Negative. Plane should be grey. For a dark jersey the logo should be away white as it was in the 80s. For some reason you can't flip logo colours now?

I'm not hating it and I absolutely hate hate hate the v1 uniforms.

The one they took from the NYRangers garbage bin in 79.

Really like the design with the split sleeves. Not a fan of the colour scheme - at all. Too much gray, making it way too drab.

So much better with more colour, IMO.

Count another in the minority, but I like the new jerseys.  To me they look far better with the full "kit".

That red mock up?!?!  Yuck.

Dont blame me. I wanted Manitoba Moose as the name and brown & black as the colours.

That was John Ferguson.  It was his design. He introduced them to the NHL as GM of the Rangers in 1977. Then when he was fired in New York before the 78-79 season  he tweaked them & brought them to Winnipeg for the first season in the NHL.

IMO should of used an exact replica of Ducky’s jersey he wore the first game as the captain of the Winnipeg Jets.

What's Mikhail Berdin up to? Not much apparently.

Samberg was in a pretty scary car accident (he's okay though) caused when a buick hit a deer

Some interesting stuff in here like #NHLJets Pionk 197 min on PP, was in on 86% of scoring...Morrisey 112 min on PP in on 91%. Ehlers in on 93% of scoring during his ice time, 77% of that primary points. Worth picking up & thanks as always for your time Gus!

Finally, Walters gets off his butt and signs.... wait... what... Chevy? Oh, it's just the Jets trying to remain relevant in Bombertown. 

 

 

Interesting, so you can extend players before they become RFAs/FAs? Who knew!

One way deal in 2022/23. Perfect timing to push Helle.

and not Kelly Moore?

[Noeller]

Kelly is older now, has a family, and is in a sort-of "management" position with 'OB. He's not going out on the road for months of the year. That's a younger man's game. I'm curious how they arrived at Edmonds over Munzy for the gig. If Munzy turned it down, or maybe was never asked...?? Munz is the one with a lengthy hockey PBP background...Edmonds only had the Goldeyes before he started doing colour on the Jets radio-casts. Curious how this will work for them, anyhow....

[JCon]

Paul Edmonds? I thought they would improve upon broadcasting team.

Don't forget Edmunds work with the Selkirk Steelers! 🤦‍♂️
