Which way do you feel about Schefiele because during the season it was an onslaught of posts criticizing and wanting him traded.  Just a quick sampling of some of your posts towards the end of last season.   There are many more like these.

He does need to be better. If we are playing this game we can go and do the same for everyone. Opinions change as we as fans are not privy to all the actual facts. A month back everyone was saying he needs to go,( tsn and sportsnet too) things change.  

 

we have a preseason schedule also from the Jets facebook page the pre-season scheDule is here! six gAmes against famiLiar foEs.

Circle October  on your calendar — it's set to be a special night!

 

October 1st will definitley be worth watching

WINNIPEG, June 23, 2022 - The Winnipeg Jets announced today the club's six-game pre-season schedule for the upcoming 2022-23 NHL season.

The Jets open their pre-season with a visit to Edmonton on Sunday, Sept. 25 against the Oilers. The first home date of the calendar features the Ottawa Senators at Canada Life Centre on Tuesday, Sept. 27. Winnipeg then travels to Quebec on Thursday, Sept. 29 where they face the Montreal Canadiens at the Bell Centre. 

The Jets' pre-season slate is highlighted by their first annual Season Ticket Member Appreciation Game on Saturday, Oct. 1 vs. Edmonton. Season Ticket Members will have access to exclusive benefits and experiences, including the chance to sing the national anthem and be a guest PA Announcer (contests for these opportunities and more to follow this summer). Members will also receive special deals on food & beverage and merchandise throughout the game. There will be one Season Ticket Member grand prize awarded per period, including a trip for two to a 2022-23 regular season road game. 

Prior to the Oct. 1 game, the Dale Hawerchuk statue will be officially unveiled in a special ceremony in True North Square. The ceremony will include members of the Hawerchuk family, Winnipeg Jets alumni and other special guests. All fans attending the Oct. 1 game will receive a Dale Hawerchuk coin to commemorate the unveiling. Hawerchuk passed away on August 18, 2020 after a courageous battle with cancer.

The pre-season finishes with a home-and-home against the Calgary Flames: the first game is on Wednesday, Oct. 5 at Canada Life Centre, before the Jets travel to Calgary for a Friday, Oct. 7 meeting at Scotiabank Saddledome.

All Jets pre-season home games at Canada Life Centre have a game time of 7:00 p.m. CT.

Don't like hearing guys are hinting they may be moving on....What the hell is going on here???..This club was close to a perennial winner....one of the top goal tenders in the league...and now we have trouble with guys wanting to stay....Something ain't right and if there's a toxic situation with someone higher up with the club ...fix it......We have rumours of Trotz signing here as our new guy behind the bench....How is this announcement of players wanting out a welcoming scenario,,,,The announcement that Trotz is official (hopefully) can't come soon enough and may be/should be enough to put a better light on the organization and steady the ship.....Here's hoping

What do they want? Trotz to share the beer if he does coach here?

 

you know I just realized that if Scheif does go we won't be seeing those MPI ads again

Pasta gets paid 6.75 per or so. We can afford him.  I wouldn't do it tho as Scheif is worth more, he's a center and wants to Win. Think his PC was a little bit overblown 

I think Pasta contract needs to be renewed this year or next so that is the afford part. Does he want to come here that seems to be the more important part for the Jets as well nowadays.  Not just the Jets but all small market teams are getting killed by the player's focus on money and big city(or great climate) amenities. Go someplace where you can play hockey and golf  year-round.

No one wants to be here,

Yikes..... there is some kinda stink coming out of TNSE right now. 

so welcome back Scott Arniel? (who am I kidding we need this team in quarantine (in a metaphorical sense) and someone that can get into their heads and tell them to smarten up)

The whole place is just poison. 

Captain asked to be traded. 

2C wants to "test" the market, which means it doesn't matter what the Jets offer he's likely going elsewhere. 

Top centre wanted to talk to his agent about his future.

Sounds more like he doesn’t want to be anywhere… Right now.  It’s easy to dump on Winnipeg, but this isn’t about him passing on coaching only here.

Top contenders now Montgomery and Vigneault. Maybe Muller.

Jets are a mess from the top to the players on the ice and Chipman needs to look in the mirror and start holding people accountable or he is going to be begging for people to watch his hockey team

So why do I expect him to take a job elsewhere once a firing occurs mid-season this upcoming year?

Maybe he does want to concentrate on family......but for how long.....Coaches want to coach and it's in their blood....He would lose a lot of credibility if he jumped a coaching job midseason BUT he's calling the shots.....I wish he would have given the Jets a little more heads up sooner, before the coaching cupboard was almost cleaned out....He sure mulled things over long enough... There's still a few guys out there of interest I guess ....Jets better move on it....Disappointment all in all with this fan

I'm starting to wonder if there was more to PaMo leaving than just "I've lost the room...they need someone else..." I wonder if he knew whatever is going on inside, and bailed early....

I have no idea why your mind works the way it does.  Maybe he’ll miss coaching and be ready to get back into it midseason and an opportunity will present itself…. Maybe he’ll take a year or two off…. Maybe he’ll retire.  Who knows?  All we know is what is reported by Dregs… He’s not ready to jump back into coaching right now and how difficult it was to not take the Winnipeg job.  I’m taking it at face value.

Yeah... Maurice seems quite into coaching now.....just not here....

I don't see the panic,   sometimes people just have enough money and want to enjoy it with their family and taking it easy.   I'm 41 and I'm already dreaming  of the days that I can retire and take it easy.  

I don't understand why TN = Something terrible because a guy wants to relax.

Because it is not an isolated incident.  Could be legit, and he just wants a break.  Could be something is rotten in the Jets dressing room or management structure if coaches leave instead of being fired, players questioning if they want to be here, to saying they won't sign long term.

Whatever is going on right now with the Jets, it isn't good.

There was an article about Trotz and his son,why it took him this long who knows. If there was a problem with Chevy and Maurice we never would of got as far as we did with our team in 17-18. This is a smallest market problem,that just keeps on getting worse because there are more options for players and coaches and unfortunately we come last. Blaming the Jets organization just overlooks the obvious.

How my mind is working:

If we take his statement at full face value, then logically he would have had these thoughts when the Jets (and every other team) first interviewed him. If the first thing he says is “you know, I’m not really interested in coaching at all” why take all the interviews, why come back for a second one in Winnipeg, and why drag it out for 2 months? Hard to imagine that he was excited to explore all of these options and then decide at the end of it “no I don’t want any of them but it just came to me”. And if he did disclose form the start, then a major screw-up on the Jets part to hold out and lose out on the other coaches who got snapped up in the interim waiting on a lost cause. 

If he is holding out for a better offer, then of course he’ll say the right things and how tough it is to turn down Winnipeg, but this team sure has had trouble holding on to players (and a coach) in the last 5 years, and it’s precisely this competitive disadvantage that helped make us also-fans in our first incarnation which led to dwindling fan interest and ultimately relocation. So if he pops up in another market 3 months into next season then I think the hard question of “what makes Winnipeg so unattractive to any real quality hockey people” has to be asked.
