The current version of the Winnipeg Jets were founded as the Atlanta Thrashers, and began play in the 1997-98 season. After a lack of success on the ice and attendance dwindling, the franchise relocated to Winnipeg in 2011 and revived the Jets moniker, which was dormant after the original Jets departed for Arizona in 1996. Winnipeg has found more sustained success since their move North, making the playoffs five times, including the past four seasons. Want to watch them live?
