The Jets are going to look like Columbus next year unfortunately but I guess you gotta move on. I'm a VGK fan but Wheelie always played us tough along with Conner.
This man should be captain for his last year! Our team got worse so far this offseason! Between Wheels and Dubois that's over 120+ points per season… with Iaffalo (36points) + Kupari (15 points) + Vallardi (41 points) = 90 points at best… we need goals! Wheels was 33% of those points! snowflakes ruined this team!
Blake Wheeler helped the Winnipeg Jets to reach the 2nd best record in 2018 then defeat the Nashville Predators who had the best record. The Winnipeg Jets the following year were favorites to win the Stanley Cup. I hope that is never lost on Winnipeg Jets fans and Captain Blake Wheeler was one of the main reasons for that long climb to the top. Thank you Blake Wheeler you gave this team and city everything you had. This city will never forget ๐ you Winnipeg Jets forever ๐ โค ๐
Thank you Blake Wheeler for all that you've done for the Winnipeg Jets i will miss you and your leadership and where ever you end up i will root for you.
Early into his jets career he was good but the last few years just proves you need to play well to be a captain and a star or you will have this kind of ending.

I for one wonโt miss you at all.
Wheels did ALOT for the jets, wish he could have joined the office staff in some role, maybe in the future he will be back with us.

That number gotta go up in the rafters. Always going to be a Jets legend.
Thanks Blake!
I hope he goes to a team that wins the cup. His name deserves to be on it.
A great player, an even better person. You made Winnipeg very proud. Thank you.
