Thanks @Jets 31 for making the GDT for tonight's game. Although technically, it should be a Plane Jane GDT...

After a long summer of waiting, the Winnipeg Jets are back and in action tonight against the Calgary Flames at the Scotiabank Saddledome in the season opener for both teams. The game time is a 9:00pm start and part of a doubleheader on Sportsnet...

While the Jets are coming off of a 2-3-1 pre-season, including a 3-2 shootout loss at home and a 5-4 loss against the Flames, they should get a big boost with the recent signing of Mark Scheifele...

and Connor Hellebuyck...

Will Nikolaj Ehlers get into the lineup? Will George Canyon yell “True North” when he sings the national anthem? Will @macmaroon actually be awake for puck drop, let alone for the entire game? These questions and more could possible be answered tonight...

Go Jets Go! :hockey:

We’ve game! deny that thou bear'st love to Schuff or Helly,
Who for Calgary’s game art so unprovident.
Grant, if thou wilt, thine signed Jets beloved of many,
But that Weegar none lovest is most evident;
For thine Jets art possess'd with many forward dudes
(Dinnae shove thou stick in thine guts and perspire).
Seeking to blow thine beauteous roof off Jetted broods
Thine Bud Zone deletion should be thy chief desire.
O, change thy thought, that I may change my mind!
Shall our Calgary hate be fairer lodged than gentle love?
Thine Lurching new captain is gracious and kind,
And KFC’s crispy crust fits like a grease-coated glove:
JoMo - make thee another high-scoring self, for love of we,
That icy beauty still may live Peg-born in thine or thee.

This beautiful little verse, may or may not have brought a tear to my eyes.

It's interesting how much the narrative for the season has changed in the past 48 hours.

We would have been vacillating over whether or not Scheifele or Hellebuyck will be traded.

Now they're both signed long term and Hellebuyck is too good a goaltender to allow us to do a Chicago style tank.

All that's left now if to cheer our team and hope they make a run.


GO! :jets GO!

Far be it for me to tell fans what to do or who to cheer for, but I think the writing is on the wall - this Jets club is going to try and extend the cores' window of competition into the next core (which is personally what I think you should always try to do).

So those Jonesin' for a rebuild might want to re-examine what team they cheer for. I hear the Yotes, Ducks and Sharks are looking for fans :)
