The Jets are back!!

It looks like the Winnipeg Jets are cleared for landing.

The team, which is expected to officially announce their name before making the 7th overall pick in tonight's NHL Entry Draft, is reportedly going to go with the very popular Jets nickname.


Its not offical yet but it seems like they're bringing the Jets back.

That would have caused Vancouver-like riots had it not returned.

I like 2 of 3 logos; dislike the written word, I feel like a 4-year-old drew it.

My thoughts exactly. But the logos themselves are sweet.

Whats with pro athletes and drunken boating in Minnesota?

The thing I found most troubling about his arrest is the report that he's gained like 40 pounds over the summer. WTF man how do gain that much weight in like 3 months??

Depression eating when you realize you're heading to Winnipeg?

That can't be it. Winnipeg is the largest city in northern Minnesota.

Edit: Screw that, I forgot how small Minneapolis and St. Paul are. Winnipeg is the largest city in Minnesota. :D

I like them. They didnt go overboard and tacky. I really like the addition of the light blue stripes. Not really a fan of the slanted lettering/numbers though.
