  1. Rick spoke how he felt. We all heard it and most agreed. The players have to be oblivious. Bring in toews as captain or assistant. Set these guys straight

  2. Bowness should not have apologized. Chevy should have shot down what the players said. And that there are changes coming to better compete. Painful. Divas gotta go

  4. I think Jeff Hamilton is correct in his assessment of how things work with the Jets, basically that Chipman is involved in every decision. I don't think there is a lot of latitude given to Chevy and so most of what he says and does has been cleared with or dictated by the man upstairs. So in that sense, fans calling for Chevy to be fired seems a bit unfair. I think Chevy owes a debt to Mr. Chipman with respect to their trip to New York and he is therefore unlikely to go against the grain in any way. I know he was officially cleared but his marketability to other teams may not be the best as a result of his association with that group in Chicago. So it's tread lightly for Chevy. I don't envy his position and unfortunately if he is being handcuffed this doesn't do the team any good at all. Look for Jets to field basically the same team next season.

  5. THE problem likely is a number of players want out and management does not want to move them yet as wpg is a difficult market to attract similar replacements. The core players know this and may be self sabatoging by not playing at there best each nite just as bones says. A rebuild in a small market is tough esp when season tickets have become more readily available over the last couple of years…… GO Jets GO!!!! from a winterpegger

  6. Whether you're a fan or a member of the media, since 2019 we've watched this team take nights off time and again. We've seen individuals back checking like they're having a leisurely skate on Rideau Canal. And nobody in this core seems to take responsibility. Whether it's Chipman directly involved, Chevy making the call on players it doesn't change a thing in regards to the fact that it's produced mediocrity. This team needs a new voice at the front office helm and leadership change in the room. Without it I shudder to think what next season brings

  7. They are NO Cinderella team … more like a bunch of princess' !!! They were a 1st place team, that fell of the rails and limped in. Really felt like a disappointment 😥

  8. I’m assuming this core has been enjoying the easy money handed out by TN. I wanna get paid for doing less too!

  9. Completely agree w you, the players showed more push back at Bones than they've shown on the ice since 2018!!
    Chevy's presser was a whole lotta due dilligence stammering and sweating with Zero accountability, once again he let his roster off the hook …..Joe Biden makes more sence when he talks about how he faced down Corn Pop!!!

  10. Jets won’t and don’t need to rebuild solely because the Division we are in. We are all but guaranteed to be playoffs next year. I agree we need better horses to get over the hump. Our division has Chicago, Arizona, St Louis and Nashville both retooling and the Wild are in Cap he’ll next year.

  11. Fan base latches on to coach to tells the truth about how shitty the org/locker room is. Sounds fairly similar to the Flyers, brought in new coach, fan base latches onto coach because hes the only one that willing to speak truths. But the difference between Bowness and Torts is that Torts has the balls to scratch any player on his roster that he thinks isnt giving 100% in every single game.

  12. Love your passion Hus, but what does keeping 37 do for the team? We aren't a $10m goalie away from improving. LB just beat them. IMO that means spend more on D and F that are game breakers. Trade the top part of the core, and wait for a trade from cap strapped teams to find the F/D you need. We have a great farm, stacked with bottom 6 and lots of trade bait. Retool for a year or 2 right and we can go far again.

  13. The Winnipeg Jets organization is one big mess. Anyone who thinks otherwise are fooling themselves. I’m sorry but after 12 years it’s time for Chevy to go. There’s a reason why attendance was down all season. The product on the ice sucks and fans are sick and tired of spending their hard earned money on this team. Face the fact the Winnipeg Jets are no longer the darling of the Peg.

  14. They are being paid very well. Just as much as anywhere else. They are becoming toxic. Maybe we shouldn’t have an NHL team if this is what these top players think of Winnipeg.

  15. 1:28:57 spot on hus. I was not thrilled by the appointment of bones in the first place but he has shown that he is a good coach and is able to improve players and secondly that he can be the spearhead for change within an organization that has absolutely gone stale.

  16. I'm actually pissed off. The city of Winnipeg has a bad reputation in North America and Winnipeg puts up with it and even encourages it. Now complaining about the team about the cost of going to the games because they didn't go to the Stanley Cup. Lol. Winnipeg, get off the matt and demand respect. Winnipeg is a hard working multicultural city. That is the team we deserve. Not the results but the process. Get a team that wants to put in the work.

  17. Guys with skill, grit, and a competitive nature do not want to play in Canada, so they don’t.
    Will a Canadian team ever win the Cup again?

  18. Watching Chevy in the hot box the only thing missing was the hair dye running down his face aka Crazy Rudy.
