Must be Teemu and Teppo going in the Jets Hall of Fame.
30th anniversary of Teemu's record setting rookie season. Makes perfect sense.

Now bring back the 90's jerseys!

SO pumped for this. Just waiting for True North to put out 90's logo march. I will buy that up like nobody's business.

 

[King Woodballs]

One of these things is not like the other…..

 

[Jets 31]

Damn i thought we signed Selanne and Numminen for this season. Great hockey players and great people as well . Go Jets Go!!!

 

[bustamente]

Growing up Teppo was one of favorite Jets, so underrated across the league. A great player and an even better person. Selanne needs no accolades from me truly one of the best players to play for the Jets and the league.

 

[Guardian17]

“Winnipeg gave me my start in the NHL and holds a special place in my heart,” said Selanne. “I have a lot of great on-ice memories from my time playing in the city, but equally as many off-ice memories in a community that has made me feel like one of their own since day one. I feel beyond privileged to be recognized by the Jets in this way, and to do it alongside my good friend Teppo is a true honour.”

“To be inducted into the Winnipeg Jets Hall of Fame alone means a great deal, but to be inducted with Teemu is beyond words for me,” said Numminen. “I couldn’t have asked for a better city to play the first eight years of my NHL career in, and to be recognized in front of the same passionate community that made playing hockey a treat every single night will be an unforgettable moment for my family and I.”

I didn't know if there was another thread discussing it when I posted started this thread. My apologies to the mods.

I think the Jets will manage to foul up the development of these two Finnish ice hockey players too
