Even if we dont get the Jets as the name, im sure TN will buy the rights for Heritage nights and the like, didnt the Moose even play in the old WHA uni's in like 2004?

if the Coyotes return then they should be name the Jets...if its a different team...say the Thrashers then they should go with a different name.

I think Manitoba Mustangs (with a p-51 Mustang for the logo) with the rumoured Brown/White colour scheme would be cool.

Can't imagine there would be much demand for that merchandise. I'm talking about the brown (Burnt Orange) scheme that has already been rumoured. Google Manitoba Moose Throwback Jerseys and go to images. They actually look pretty good IMO.

I'm not sure I found the one you are talking about but I did see a white jersey with a dark colour stripe (could be black or dark brown) and a lighter colour stripe (could be the burnt orange you are talking about). I'm still not sure that I would be a fan of those colours but at least there are 2 different colours (along with the white). I just wouldn't want to see only brown and white.

Thanks for the link. I guess those jerseys don't look too bad as there are more than just 2 colours. I think my fear was that our new team would just have chocolate brown and white only which would seem kind of dull compared to other teams.

I think my fear was that our new team would just have chocolate brown and white only which would seem kind of dull compared to other teams. This is the first time I've seen these jerseys... to be honest, I'm not really a fan of them. I actually liked the sounds of a brown jersey, but I pictured a darker brown. I have a jets shirt I bought about a year ago that is done in all beige and dark brown, it looks pretty good IMO. So I don't know, my vote would just be a darker chestnut brown vs the diarhea brown those jerseys look like. That said, I want the name Jets but I fully understand changing the logo and colours... none of that matters much to me, I just want to be able to chant GO JETS GO at an actual Jets game finally.

if the Coyotes return then they should be name the Jets...if its a different team...say the Thrashers then they should go with a different name. I see this "logic" thrown around a lot and it makes zero sense to me. When the Jets left for the desert, they ceased to exist - period. The Jets lineage ended there. Phoenix's team was a brand new franchise, despite some Jets fans refusing to fully let go of the past. Their only connection to Winnipeg was that they initially happened to employ many players who previously played for the non-existent, defunct Winnipeg Jets. Why should where Winnipeg's new franchise comes from - be it from Glendale, Atlanta, or expansion - have any bearing on what our NHL team should be named? Winnipeg's only professional hockey team (WHA, NHL) was the Winnipeg Jets. The team we grew up with and loved (and sometimes hated) was the Jets. The team we lost was the Jets. The team we want back is the Jets. Where they return from is 100% inconsequential to what they are named when they return here.

I don't mind that kind of thing for a heritage game or something but not as the normal uniform.
