About this episode

Vic and Neil analyze the disappointing season of the Winnipeg Jets and discuss future expectations.

From Presidents' Trophy to missing the playoffs. That was the story of the 2025-26 Winnipeg Jets. The season started well enough but lack of support for the top line and inconsistent play put the Jets in a position where they chased the pack during the second half and eventually ran out of runway to qualify for the post-season. Vic and Neil look back at what their expectations were back last August, provide the data that spelled doom and fast forward to what lies ahead as GM Kevin Cheveldayoff prepares for 2026-27.
