For whatever reason, I like the sound of Winnipeg better than Manitoba.
Dreger's most recent tweet is: "Correction. Secret is out. Wpg Jets returns."

I hope the new logo isn't radically different. Maybe more "modernized", but not some totally new thing.

Me too, and i'm so glad they got the Jets name back. It would suck terribly to have them called something else when really the fans wanted their Jets back. Sure it's not the actual OLD Jets franchise but that's okay in the long run.

I'm glad it will be the jets. Anything else wouldn't feel right.


Do you really care where I sent this from?

With that news, I'm officially adopting the Jets as my secondary NHL team. Welcome to the bandwagon, self.

Normally I don't pick second teams but I'll make an exception for the Jets. Still a Flyers fan first

Yeah they have instantly become one of my favorites as well, already a huge fan of Byfuglien and Ladd, now with the nostalgia of bringing back the Jets name I will definitely be pulling for them to do well when they aren't playing Chicago.

I'll probably pick up a Byfuglien jersey as well.

Re: Atlanta Thrashers Move To Winnipeg

I'm happy for all the Winnipeggers here who got their team back (or at least as close as it gets). I'm not really a hockey fan and didn't live here when the original Jets played here, but I was still excited to hear the news.
