Posted March 5, 20169 yr comment_186925 Well since the NHL has officially called a press conference at MTSC tomorrow and it's been the talk of sloets radio since Thursday, shall we debate who our alumni are? Sounds like it will be made up of Winnipeg hockey players. So Jets 1.0 and Potentially Moose. Don't think they will include any thrashers unless they were also jets (Keith Tkachuk) Hawerchuk will be at the presser tomorrow so he's a lock. Selanne??
March 5, 20169 yr comment_186926 For the love of God, no alumni game featuring 80s Oilers vs 80s Jets.

March 5, 20169 yr comment_186931 Don't care about the score of an alumni game but it would be great optically if some of the greats of both teams played that day.
March 5, 20169 yr Author comment_186934 Would expect Selanne, Tkachuk, Steen among others. Wonder what jersey they will wear. Ab Macdonald dropping the puck?

They all wore the better way better but still garbage V1B jerseys so hopefully those. Who else? Maclean, Lukowich, Smail, Carlyle. Running out of q names.
March 5, 20169 yr comment_186943 Jets 1.0 had a lot on quality players it's just to bad the Oilers had better, we really have a lot of alumni to choose from and hopefully many can come back for what will be a great event.
March 5, 20169 yr comment_186947 How many do u need for an alumni game anyway? 20 is really scratching at threads.
March 5, 20169 yr comment_186952 I'd be somewhat surprised if the Jets don't invite some of the WHA jets to come play.... if they can cuz you can bet your ass that our 3rd jersey will be a tribute to our WHA days. Hawerchuk Teemu Numminen Housley Manson Zhamnov Steen Tkachuk. Throw in a WHA player or 2... if they can still go. Khabibulin would be very cool. He was the best goalie in jets 1.O history IMO Edited March 5, 20169 yr by Goalie
March 5, 20169 yr Author comment_186953 I hope it's the 90's jersey. Best jets jersey ever. They better come out to "Jump" too get Kurt Kielbach to call the game. They won't but that would really be embracing the concept.

March 6, 20169 yr comment_186964 Not a chance. Chipman has already subtly mentioned a tribute to the WHA Jets with a 3rd jersey.

March 6, 20169 yr comment_186992 Reunite the Selanne-Zhammov-Thachuk line. Smail, Steen, Boschman, Hawerchuck etc How about Steve Penny in goal?
March 6, 20169 yr comment_186993 Jim Kyte has to be there. Dave Ellett to. He had one of the biggest goals in Jets history. Edited March 6, 20169 yr by sweep the leg
