The city of Winnipeg would like its Hockey heritage BACK from Arizona.

THANK YOU TNSE for getting the name right! Now, the possibility has been created to reclaim our history....

There is virtually no current connection between the Jets and the Yotes, except for Doan...and Winnipeggers have already accepted his preference for AZ!

The only notable franchise record that was actually MADE in Glendale, was by a Goalie that Arizona has mostly written off--but that is their choice.

What happens if The Yotes fold/relocate?

To be honest, it doesn't seem like Hockey fans in AZ really want any reminders of Winnipeg's history around anyway?

A compromise might be required to share Teppo's Jersey Retirement.

...or as someone has suggested, it might just be easier to reclaim the Jets history from 1972-1996?

Please make use of the comment area to make any further suggestions!

To put it simply, HISTORY BELONGS WHERE IT WAS MADE!

Thank you!

New England/Hartford Whalers/Carolina Hurricanes: Gordie Howe retired while the franchise was in Hartford (he played there from 1977–1980). The Hurricanes honour his number, but no banner hangs in the RBC Center, as Howe never played there.
