Irregardless of the team name, they need to put a team on the ice that wins well into the playoffs. They've sold out season tickets for the next three years. Ticket sales beyond that will be based on results. I'm impressed with Chipmans' strategy so far, it will be interesting to see how it all pans out.

Fans wanted to see their team come back and that in itself may have helped sell out the tickets. And yes, performance will dictate how ticket sales will go later on which is important of course to pay salaries and such and keep the team's fan base. Unless you're like me, I am a Leafs fan always just biding time till they strike back (hopefully before I am dead but that's not the point). And not a word Shamu... LOL Awards

It's official, Winnipeg will be called the Jets again, I think this is a bad move, they failed before and I believe they needed a new name for a fresh start with a new look, but nope, they are the Jets again, well lets hope they don't crash and burn in the next 10 years, what do you guys/girls think about this renaming of the team back to the Jets? I don't like it! Really disappointed they aren't the Winnipeg Headflappers! That is a winning name right there.

There is something to be said about history. Also they can have a retro jersey with the old uniform. Awards
