What it feels like to be a Winnipeg Jets fan

Winnipeg Jets fans don’t mess around. These hardcore hockey fans finally had a team to cheer for again when the NHL franchise was brought to Winnipeg in 2011. You can expect serious team spirit whenever the puck drops at Winnipeg’s MTS Centre.

A couple of weeks ago, Colleague Gohier mentioned to me with Colleague-ly sympathy that the 2009-10 Edmonton Oilers must be difficult to cheer for. They’re in last place overall in the league, and even after last night’s victory in L.A., the race to the bottom is not close. This is unfamiliar territory for most of the remaining Canadian teams—very unfamiliar indeed for Oiler fans. Few of you outside Winnipeg have any reason to know this, but it’s actually kind of fun in some ways.
