2. Top-Six Forwards
One thing is for certain, with the offseason acquisition of Paul Stastny, the Winnipeg Jets’ top-two lines are stacked and not many franchises are fortunate enough to have the caliber of players that the Jets have with their top-six forwards.
The Jets’ top lines of the depth chart look to be Nikolaj Ehlers on the left, with Mark Scheifele in the middle and Blake Wheeler on the right; and Kyle Connor with Stastny and Patrik Laine on the other line.
There is a good chance we could see Ehlers and Connor switch places, but regardless of that, these lines will carry the Jets in 2021.
Look for these six players to score a majority of the Jets goals and these players could separate the Jets from the rest of the pack in their new North Division.
These names are a great reason to have hope that the Jets will have an extremely successful season.
