The Winnipeg Jets open their season next month. Another league, the NFL, opens their season in just a few short days. I figured this would be a good time to scour the NFL rosters and try and find comparisons for our Jets. Maybe even…on the Jets.
The Winnipeg Jets are becoming a more well-known hockey team. I saw a tweet the other day, asking which team was going to win the Stanley Cup. It only took me about fifty replies to get to an answer that said Jets.
In the second round of the playoffs last season, it was roughly 200. Progress? Progress. But while they’re fighting their own fight with casual NHL fans (And winning that battle), I’m here doing it for everyone else.
By taking the stars from the Jets and trying to find perfect comps for them among the NFL rosters, I’m providing a service. Do you love the NFL but struggle to find ground when trying to watch NHL hockey? I’m here to help.
Do you love Adrian Peterson? Well, he’s exactly like Blake Wheeler in every imaginable way. Why? Because I just picked those names at random and Peterson doesn’t even appear on this list. But whatever, I just wanted to prep you for what’s going down.
