~~We talked about some old times, we drank ourselves some beers, we are one of the few Winnipeg Jets sites that is still crazy after all these years...~~

~~Think that was lame?~~ Welcome to THE WINNIPEG JETS NETWORK.

In all seriousness, this is a site that was created to network all of the great Winnipeg Jets websites that are up and running. Please see our 'LINKS' tab above.

Now that the Jets are actually back in Winnipeg, the goal is to collect anything and everything Jets-related.

We have occasionally borrowed from here and there, but we have always tried to reference the source. If your Jets-related work is visible/mentioned here, rest assured: Our site will be a benefit to your site - we network aggressively! If we have "borrowed" something from you and it really gets your goat, please contact us to discuss the matter.

If we can join forces, that would be great - this is actually the goal! If not, and you insist that we take down something of yours, "the dude will abide"...if it is a logical request.

~~We are only trying to get our Jets back to Winnipeg. They were OUR team after all!~~

Update:

CONGRATULATIONS WINNIPEG--THE NHL HAS FINALLY RETURNED TO WHERE IT BELONGS!

~~Now, let's get the name right!~~

Colorado Avalanche vs. Winnipeg Jets Highlights - FINAL: Avalanche (1) Jets (4)

noreply@blogger.com (Winnipeg Jets) — Wed, 28 Dec 2011 05:00:00 +0000

Great win for the Jets beating the Avs whom were on a winning streak at home. Jets looked fresh from some rest in Winnipeg...and it showed.

Kane scored 2 goals and Pavelec was close to another shutout.

Winnipeg hits 8th in the East!

The Jets easily took advantage of the Canadiens' issues as of late with a solid win!

This was the 9th career shutout for Ondrej Pavelec (3rd of the season).

Winnipeg Jets vs. New York Islanders Highlights - FINAL: Jets (2) Islanders (3) SO

noreply@blogger.com (Winnipeg Jets) — Wed, 21 Dec 2011 05:00:00 +0000

Jets lose in a shootout against the Islanders. This was a bad loss for the Jets considering that the Jets could have really used the boost in the standings - a win would have put them in a 3-way tie for 7th place in the East (w/ Toronto and Ottawa).

Winnipeg Jets vs. Anaheim Ducks Highlights - FINAL: Jets (5) Ducks (3)

noreply@blogger.com (Winnipeg Jets) — Sun, 18 Dec 2011 05:00:00 +0000

Teemu Selanne was credited two assists in a game against the Jets that was his first in Winnipeg in over 15 years. He almost scored a goal with around 3 minutes left in the game. Jets fans would have cheered for it and the Jets would've (still) squeaked out the win as well (with a goal to spare).

It was a great night for Jets fans!

"Winnipeg was really, really special," Teemu Selanne said. "The people, there's a reason why their plates on the cars have 'Friendly Manitoba' because it's a really friendly city and unbelievable fans and it was just a great 4½ years there." - LA Times

noreply@blogger.com (Winnipeg Jets) — Wed, 14 Dec 2011 05:00:00 +0000

So, what does it make the Jets when they beat the best team in the league?

Not too bad at all...

Pavelec is more than the backbone of this team!

Detroit Red Wings vs. Winnipeg Jets Highlights - FINAL: Red Wings (7) Jets (1)

15-ish years later, the Red Wings still have the Jets' number...apparently.

Winnipeg Jets vs. Boston Bruins Highlights - FINAL: Jets (2) Bruins (1)

noreply@blogger.com (Winnipeg Jets) — Wed, 07 Dec 2011 05:00:00 +0000

Yet another nail-biting ending with the Bruins being served their first loss since October. Bruins were w/o Seguin ( >> Alarmgate?! << ) and Thomas sat out...but a win is a win.

Besides, the Jets are missing a few key players as well. This team is a contender and has (once again) come up big against one of the better teams in the NHL.

Winnipeg Jets vs. Phoenix Coyotes Highlights - FINAL: Jets (1) Coyotes (0)

noreply@blogger.com (Winnipeg Jets) — Fri, 02 Dec 2011 23:22:00 +0000

Well, for a low-scoring game, this one was entertaining as Hell! The Winnipeg Jets were on display with some impressive passing (Little and Wellwood come to mind). The game was a candidate for the most memorable Jets game of the year, thus far. (Yes, the high-scoring Philly game is a tough one to forget as well!)

Everyone knows that Winnipeg fans were chomping at the bit to host the Yotes and the game at MTS Centre failed to disappoint!

The booing was unrelenting (when the Yotes had the puck)...and some might say, in bad taste. I think it was just another opportunity for the Winnipeg fans to vent their frustration that had accrued over the past 15 years.

You don't see a standing ovation and booing for the same player (within minutes) too often, do you!? Not sure what to make of the #DoanEffect.

Were some of the fans just drunk/young/having (negative-based) fun?

Sure.

Did the booing help?

It's hard to argue that it didn't...

>> @DangerousHockey << (a noted Atheist) pointed out that the Hockey Gods were obviously present at the MTS Centre to assist Pavelec with the #PhantomSave late in the 3rd.

Would the puck have gone in without the mysterious bounce? I don't think so: Ondrej was playing great and was "there" for this play. He seemed to wildly miss the puck only because of the strange bounce. Regardless, most Jets fans are likely quite relieved to (only) have to contemplate this thought in a hypothetical manner...whew!

"Everyone knows that Hockey Gods exist," says (stone-faced) Rocco of >> www.DangerousHockey.com <<

(His in-laws are happy to hear that he is finally acknowledging a higher power.)

GAME 25: PHOENIX COYOTES @ WINNIPEG JETS 1/12/11

noreply@blogger.com (Winnipeg Jets) — Thu, 01 Dec 2011 20:54:00 +0000

Claude Noel speaks to the media prior to Thursday night's game against the Coyotes

Coyotes captain Shane Doan talks about returning to Winnipeg to face the Jets.

Coyotes head coach Dave Tippett talks about visiting Winnipeg for the first time.

I have to say...I still hold a grudge against the AZ fans/media that couldn't see the GWI logic beyond their own bias... BUT...

Maybe I am naive, but I like the attitude of Doan and Tippet in these interviews. I realize that they have to promote a certain image, but I actually believe everything that was said here...including that Doan still has a soft spot for Winnipeg, however small it may be.

There are important bragging rights on the line tonight...hope the Jets do what we all know that they are capable of!
