HOW CLOSE?? The Winnipeg Jets Are THREE Points From A Playoff Spot…Worth It??

After a weekend of NHL action that saw the Winnipeg Jets hand the Colorado Avalanche a rare regulation defeat, the Jets find themselves 3 points out of a playoff spot. How real is the gap between the team and the playoffs? Is it truly worth making it with the first-round date being Colorado? What would the Jets need to do to survive the Avs? Is Winnipeg in need of some PR training? Why can’t they take some easy media lay-ups? How is the broader NHL media covering the Jets these days?

  1. I say if you can make the playoffs, you go for it, regardless of how that first series would likely go. The tank mentality was never going to fly with this team, nor should it.

    If they win tomorrow, they are one point out and if the Oilers beat the Kraken, the Jets have passed LA and Seattle. They are in the fight and I want to see them go down swinging if they go down.

  2. I completely agree with you, the Jets need a top draft pick more than a couple of home playoff games in order to improve their future standing. The problem is Arniel is fighting for his job and Scheifele, Connor and Hellebuyck dont like to lose and basically run the team.

  3. What a weird season. Any other season the Jets would be done, but they are in a weird place where they could make the playoffs but if they don't then they get a pretty early draft pick. But the worst case scenario will probably be what happens- they will finish just outside of the playoffs.
