When was the last time the jets went deep in the playoffs? Never? Imagine if they win the cup, and add in the fanbase losing the team for close to 20 years. The story writes itself.
I don't get the Canucks comparison at all. Winnipeg is a small, often overshdowed market that does not offend many people.
The Canucks had most of Canada cheering against them, so would Winnipeg, so would any of the teams as I explained earlier in the thread with the “If it isn’t us, then definitely not them” mentality Canadian hockey fans have.
The whole “Canada’s team”, bring the Cup back home knowmatter who wins it, is media driven malarkey and the kind of thing casual fans buy into.
