Jets jerseys unveiled

The Jets jerseys were unveiled in front of media and military at 17 Wing in Winnipeg today. Mark Stuart, Andrew Ladd, Eric Fehr and Nik Antropov were out at the event to model these new jerseys for us. If I may say so, with the limited time everyone had to get these jerseys done they've turned out wonderful.


More pictures available after the jump.







And finally, a video of the event if you missed it. YouTube limits me to 15 minutes, so I had to cut out Rod Bruinooge. He didn't really say anything noteworthy.

David Koci to attend training camp

It appears that David Koci will attend the Jets training camp. Koci spent the last 2 seasons with the Colorado Avalanche, and is primarily known as a fighter and enforcer. The Jets may be looking to replace Eric Boulton, who signed a 2-year contract with the Devils this summer.



He is bigger than Tanner Glass, but oft-injured. A player that is never afraid to drop the gloves no matter who is on the receiving end of his punches. He doesn't always win, but almost always bleeds.

Evidence of his prowess at bleeding:

Jerseys to be unveiled September 6th at 11am

The jerseys of the reincarnated Winnipeg Jets will be shown to the public for the first time on Tuesday, September 6th at 11am. This will happen at 17 Wing in Winnipeg, which you may have already guessed due to the whole Royal Canadian Air Force tie-in.

Confirmed from two sources on Twitter (one being the actual team):



We've seen our fair share of knock-off jerseys hitting the market, we've seen the RCMP intercept those fake jerseys, and now we finally get to see the real product and start saving up our hard-earned money to get that jersey. Or, in my case, my birthday is this month. Lucky me.

As per correspondence with Gary Lawless of the Free Press, the event appears to be media only. I will update if that status changes.
