I'm trying to understand what a clearly militaristic primary mark has to do with hockey, or any sport, for that matter. This really isn't working for me.
- first you have to ask yourself why they call themselves the jetsregiste
- jets used to land and refuel in winnipeg when flying across the country.horton
- its manlyuncannylikeness
- What do most team names have to do with hockey. Ducks, Flames, etc.???eegrek
- Winnipeg has an airforce base, I believe. The mark is geographically relevant.Gucci

I prefer the secondary logo. And the wordmarks are decent. This is hockey people, have you seen some of the other modern team logos?! Besides the Original Six that is...

pretty much the weakest logo in the league. really disappointing.
with all the excitement about this team returning to MB they could have just refreshed the old crest for an instant hometown win. would have made millions in merch sales before the season even starts.

Lord, what a horrible/dated decision - simple question: once the CF-18 is decommissioned will they update with the CF-22 or equivalent? What happens when the Jets get their butts kicked all season long? What if they "bomb"? Sheesh, I can hear the infantile metaphors already. I mean, the Thrashers were not that good a team and just moving to Winnipeg is not going to make them better...
sigh... it smells strictly of a marketing decision and I feel it is just shameful to ride on the coattails of a nationalistic fervour.
*smh

I guess we shouldn't let this get in the way of how awesome it's that we're getting our teams back!!!

1 - It looks like the jet is exploding.
2 - It looks like it could be the conservatives party logo.
