This is on management/drafting. They’ve had a lot of time to add to this core but can’t find the solid adds other teams can. If you can’t call up your 22-23 year old farmhands because they’re not ready 🤔 that’s an organizational failure. Chevy has chosen trades for borderline older players to supplement the roster instead of the next core IMO. Hopefully they don’t mess up this draft because the way they’re playing they should be in line to get a pretty quality player.🫨
Near the of the Bombers disappointing 2025 season I was thinking “I can hardly wait for hockey season to start so I can feel good about a Winnipeg team again”. Well that blew up quick 😢
I was young but I remember the 80-81 Jets (the year before Dale Hawerchuck fell into our hands). I think their record was worse than this team but not my much. Maybe we can get a break and the lottery will fall our way 🤞🏻. Chevy will probably draft a Swede for our first pick anyway 😕
If we cleaned house including GM and scouting staff (big if with the team’s owners) the rebuild might only take a few seasons. The way the current team is performing what difference would that make?
The Jets play tonight is horrific, ghastly, and dreadful. At least we know they aren’t trying to tank, they’re just that bad 😕
If Chevy is still our GM next season you will probably be very used to it by then.
So it's not really Team Canada, it's whoever the team's coach wants on his squad. That's OK for the NHL but in best on best the coach picking guys from his own squad looks kind of bad on Hockey Canada. Mind you, they've been doing a pretty good job of that for a while now 🤪
