Well I guess we can crown a "winner" in this poll: The 1973-1979 WHA Winnipeg Jets, who won 3 Avco Cups! ... now if you guys also want "an old Jets jersey" as our eventual alternate jersey, I'll lose it. True North owns the team. Not Barry Shenkarow. These are True North's Winnipeg Jets. Personally I wouldn't be opposed as to having our shoulderpatch logo be the main crest for our 3rd: ... BUT, that is a different topic, for a different poll.

Gotta go with the WHA Jets from 73-78 because of the Avco Cups, but being of Icelandic decent I kinda want the Winnipeg Falcons

Well, based on Chipman's comments (anyone have the link btw..?), I think we can expect the 1972 WHA Jets as our alternate OR "Heritage Classic" jersey at Investors Group Field: (or, I guess, maybe both...) Tweak it a little, make sure it's in Polar Midnight Blue (the Jets 2.0 main colour), and we could have something really sharp.

^ I was never a big fan of the original Jets logo. I have heard this jersey dubbed by many as the "Tide" jersey.

Ok, so if Evander Kane doesn't show up to sign your copy of NHL 13, you'll lose it. If TN goes with an old school Jets jersey as their alternate, you'll lose it. Just out of curiosity, what is it you'll be losing? Your sanity? Because, if that's the case... ah.... well... um.... {cough} Anyone else want to chime in here? ;D I love Marie Sharp's green habanero hot sauce. www.mariesharp.com/[/gentleabuse] #reporttomod #sayhitoJack m.

TheDeuce, that's not very professional behaviour from a website moderator, if I may be so bold.
If you have a problem with me, feel free to PM me. Keep it off the boards.

I think the better choice would be the Jets jersey worn during the last season in the WHA (1978-79).

Who, me? All I did was ask a question and invite others to weigh in!

Where do I say I hate everything Winnipeg? I LOVE the Winnipeg Jets. I LOVE the Winnipeg Goldeyes. I love MTS Centre. I love Shaw Park. There are 10,000 reasons to hate the Blue Bombers. PM me if you're interested in hearing them. The only ppl that love the Blue are ppl who think they're supposed to, ppl who have been sth for "X" amount of years and always renew no matter what, and ppl who have been a fan for so long they're completely blind and ignorant to how this sports franchise operates. There I said it. And I can't stand those of you who think True North should constantly bow down and worship and honour Barry Shenkarow, The Winnipeg Arena, Winnipeg Enterprises, Doug Smail, Thomas Steen and everything about the 79 - 1996 Jets who never won anything by the way- and were an extremely poorly run sports franchise. Also if you're one of those people who think we never would've had the Jets 2.0 without the Jets 1.0, please, explain to us all in detail, how Miami, Columbus, Nashville, and Anaheim all got NHL hockey franchises. Thank you.Get it now?
"don't remember much about the Jets 1.0" Your words come back to haunt you! ;D

^ When did I say that I don't remember much about the Jets 1.0? I never, ever said that. I remember everything about them. Nice try Tim.
In the post you're talking about I said something to the effect of "You guys must not have remembered much about the Jets 1.0 to want to want to constantly honour and worship and remember them."
Go back and look. I'll wait.

Go back and look. I'll wait. Blackie, It's just not the win/loss record or playoff record, we had some great players, perhaps one of the greatest left wingers to ever play in the NHL thatplayed for the Jets, so yes, I do honor them. I would dare say that more people blend the teams together now, than don't

Go back and look. I'll wait. I stand corrected, but your still a hater and not much of a Jets fan if you don't appreciate the team we had. Real fans support there team thick and thin, and if you had any memory if not for the Oilers we probably have won a cup.
