NHL Projections: Winnipeg Jets Lineup
The Winnipeg Jets had a rough season last year and missed the playoffs by a lot. This year, I think things improve. The Jets are a good young team and have the talent to make the playoffs. Their biggest obstacle is the division they play in. The Central Division is stacked. I think Winnipeg competes for a playoff spot this year. I don't know if they get in, but I think they have a shot at a wild card spot. They have a talented forward group, but defense and goaltending remains a question mark. Here is what the Jet's lineup should look like to start the season.
