A sad reality

Description
Really not sure what this teams direction is or what Bowness can really do for them or what he can even do.

The forward core is good but they don’t seem playoff good anymore though. They really fell off the past few seasons and just haven’t really seemed to be a good team at all. Like they really fell off a cliff and we’re just super inconsistent as a team. I’m not totally sold on them.

The defence core I originally thought from last season was gonna be one of the best in the league and then they just looked like pylons to me and were sort of really awful.

The goaltending was really the best part of the Jets last season but they can only do so much with a terrible performing team in front of them.

Overall this team is mediocre at best and no longer a playoff competing team. They should’ve been selling some assets at the deadline instead of what ever it was they were doing. They are 6th place central team. And if they are lucky enough they can be a 5th place central team.

With having Maurice and Huddy gone, I’m at least willing to give them a shot to see what a new coaching staff can do. Winnipeg’s defensive structure has been an absolute tire fire inside of a flaming dumpster the last few years and I do believe that with at least a decent system, their forward core and Helly in net, they could easily be a playoff team.

Their goaltending wasn't their best part of last season, nothing was really, Comrie was good, Helle was **** though.

The Central could be wide open this year, every team took a step back this offseason except Nashville, if everyone goes well maybe the Jets could grab 2nd in the division, they could just as easily finish 5th or 6th though.
