Winnipeg Jets Tickets

After a 15-year absence, the NHL is finally back in Winnipeg. Although local fans undoubtedly feel the pain of their fellow fans as Georgia says goodbye to the Atlanta Thrashers, the entire province of Manitoba is proud to welcome the team to the MTS Centre. In a fitting tribute to the original Winnipeg Jets, the new ownership group of True North Sports and Entertainment has decided to use that name once again, and now Winnipeg Jets hockey tickets are hotter than ever. Even before the name was announced or the move was made official, the demand for Winnipeg Jets season tickets was incredible and they sold out in a matter of minutes. But don’t worry if you missed out, because GoTickets has Winnipeg Jets tickets for every game during this historic season.

Even though the original Winnipeg Jets never won a Stanley Cup, they did win the WHA title three times before moving to the NHL. The Jets then spent 17 seasons in the NHL before departing to become the Phoenix Coyotes. Since that time, local fans and city leaders have worked hard to bring a team back to Winnipeg, and now it has finally paid off. By keeping the Winnipeg Jets name the team can maintain the legacy of past greats, such as Dale Hawerchuk, Thomas Steen, Bobby Hull, Anders Hedberg and Teemu Selanne. You won’t find any of those names on the current Winnipeg Jets roster, but this team has plenty of young talent. Now a new era of Winnipeg hockey is set to be written, and you can be there with Winnipeg Jets hockey tickets from GoTickets.

Of course the biggest game on the Winnipeg Jets schedule is going to be opening night, but really any of the 41 home games at MTS Centre are going to be special and you can bet that every game will be sold out. Although it doesn’t make much sense geographically, the Jets will play in the Southeast Division of the Eastern Conference, at least for the near future. But that does give fans plenty of chances to see Alexander Ovechkin and the Washington Capitals. The demand for Winnipeg hockey tickets figures to be especially high when the Jets play the Montreal Canadiens or Toronto Maple Leafs, so make sure you get your Jets hockey tickets early.
