Notes About The Winnipeg Jets

In the recently completed NHL season and playoffs, the Winnipeg Jets finished second in overall points in the regular season and won two rounds before losing to the first year, Las Vegas Golden Knights in the NHL semi-final round.

The past season was the first time the Winnipeg Jets, in either of their incarnations, won 2 rounds in the NHL playoffs.

Results were much different in the W.H.A. where the original Winnipeg Jets, now the Phoenix Coyotes, won 3 titles and made 5 final round appearances in the league’s 7 year existence (1973-1979).

They were led by the great player, Bobby Hull, who scored over 600 goals in the NHL playing his entire career with the Chicago Blackhawks.
