Unlike last year when just a couple of guys envisioned the Jets as a playoff team, this season they have a few more picking them to be above that playoff line in April.  As always you are welcome to share your predictions in our comments section.

Working hard on a daily basis to provide the latest Winnipeg Jets and Manitoba Moose news for our readers and listeners. I also appear on the Illegal Curve Hockey Show every Saturday on our YouTube channel as well as the Illegal Curve Post-Game Show after every single Jets game. And I occasionally jump in the play-by-play booth at Canada Life to provide colour analysis during Manitoba Moose games.
