Winnipeg Jets Tickets

The Jets were founded in 1999 originally as the Atlanta Thrashers for Atlanta, Georgia. Just prior to the 2011 Season the team relocated to the MTS Center in Winnipeg, Manitoba, Canada. With the new arena also came a new name, so the Atlanta Thrashers now became the Winnipeg Jets. In Winnipeg there was a former team with the same name that played from 1972-1996, but relocated to Phoenix. The Jets new team colors are Blue, Silver, Red and White, and you can see the colors within the team's logo. It is said to have been designed to pay homage to the Royal Canadian Air Force (RCAF) with the silhouette of a McDonnell Douglas DF-18 Hornet sitting on top of a Red Maple Leaf surrounded by the RCAF's roundels. With a rich hockey history in the Manitoba area, the Jets decided to bring back the old Mick E. Moose from the areas previous league years. So Mick E. Moose got a new uniform and was back on the ice again, so be sure to look for him at the next Jets game.
