Dear Chevy and Mr Chipman …. As an impartial observer, and someone who cheers for the Jets (just not for the two games a year against the Bruins), if you want to do something to win back your fan base? For all that is holy be smart and hire Barry Trotz. Break out the Brinks truck back it up keep tossing bags of money out until he agrees to come home to Manitoba.
Barry Welcome to Winnipeg👍👌👍👌👍
That James Patrick comment just confirms everything people have been thinking.
Barry Trotz should be hired sight unseen. Then you would see what a JOKE Charlie Huddy was.
Trotz took a 31st in defence Islanders, and made them #1 defence in ONE YEAR.
Jets need to hire Barry Trotz. Jeez… blank cheque. Give him the reins
Give him $6 mill. Give him $8 mill. Get him FFS

Kinda interesting to hear a WHL coach in Winnipeg pretty much call out Scheifele and Wheeler and say they were the reasons to why this team performs poorly. Why really disappoints me is if this is true (probably is) why hasn’t the team made changes over the last few years
A broken room and front office that’s not accountable to anyone. Well Chevy did come from Chicago…….. look how that room and office operated in regards to accountability.
Great, so Hayes pulled that puck outta the net ON PURPOSE !!!
And does anyone think PLD wants to sign long term to the sniffles wheelchair show?
If you listen to maurice fan boy over wheeler it makes sense how this dressing room got to the way it is. He encouraged this toxic dressing room. Again shows how uppermanagment is inept. Feel bad for Lowry stuck in this shitshow
I believe his family dynamic will prevent him from leaving the eastern US.
How did this GM get extended. TNSE has neglected jets fans for years. When the Jets were the hottest ticket in town people who were not lucky enough to snag season tickets were left on the outside looking in. Now they want those same fans to come to the games. I own a 1/4 season ticket and enjoy going to the games but this organization neglected the true fans. It hurts to hear how poorly Run this organization is. How does a GM allow the room to get to this point with out making changes. A coach walked away from the team. That's unheard of.
Dubois is not going to sign here if the room is as bad as they say. Why would he. Jets need to push wheeler and sheiflele out and appoint dubois, Lowry, ehlers and conner as the leaders.
Missing the live broadcast… so exciting that Trotz is in the conversation for sure now!
Great show boys !!
We obviously need between coach not ahl or assistant. Guys like Trotz,Carlyle,Babcock,ect we need
Or give an older player who's been retired a shot like Montreal and st Louis
An enviable array of sponsors.
Is this Uncle Remis?
Are summer clothes needed up there?
Dave Poulin, ex-Flyer. Maybe a potential coach, along with Scotty Hartnall.
Bad move imo, he was only there for what 3 years? Took Al Arbour 8 years to win the Cup !!!
I really dislike Jeff Hamilton.. settle down bud..
Scheifele is as good as gone. Jets will focus on keeping PLD, and Paul Stastny happy.
I would like Bruce B. stay in Vancouver but I could see him in Winnipeg.
You can get warm clothes from Land's End and Hudson's Bay.
