| Question | Answer |
| I want to buy some Jets memorabilia, such as a jersey. Do you know of a place I can go? | Check the Links section under Jets Memorabilia. You can also check eBay. These sites can help you in this regard, I can not. I am not an online store, nor am I a merchandise catalog. |
| How long has this site been here? | This site has been around since mid-1998. I don't have an exact date, but it's an approximate time frame. |
| I heard there are some efforts to bring back the Jets. Where can I find information on that? | There are no credible efforts working towards the return of the NHL to Winnipeg. |
| What happened with the efforts to save the Jets back in 1995? | Check the Efforts to Save the Jets section. |
| How do I contact the Webmaster? | Send me an e-mail at jets@curtiswalker.com. (Some apparently can't see the link that says "Contact Webmaster") |
| I want to check some Jets game results. Do you have them on your site? | Check the Game Results section. |
| What's the story behind the Winnipeg White Out? | Check the White Out feature. |
| What's the story behind Goals for Kids? | Check the Goals for Kids feature. |
| Why are you running this site? Are you trying to bring the Jets back? | This site is a memorial to the Jets, that's all. |
| I want some information on a Jets player. Do you have anything on individual players? | Check the Players section for a searchable database for every player that suited up for the Jets. |
| You don't seem to like Keith Tkachuk. Why? | He never wanted to be here, so there's no reason that I should want him here either. He's a selfish player and not someone to be idolized. |
| What sort of media attention has your site received? | I have appeared on Global TV, and have been interviewed by a reporter doing a feature in the Edmonton Oilers game magazine. I do not seek or desire media attention personally, but I guess it comes with the territory. |
| Do you have a look back at the Jets history on the site? | Check out the History feature for a brief rundown, and you can also check the Season Recaps feature for a more detailed look at each of the 24 seasons the Jets played. |
| I know someone who played for the junior Jets? Why isn't he in your database? | This site covers the Jets from 1972-1996 when they were members of the WHA, then later the NHL. I do not cover the junior Jets at all on this site. |
| I want to use an image from your site on my site? Is that OK? | Please ask me for permission before using them on another site. I've put a lot of work over time putting this site together and don't appreciate it when someone comes around wanting to do an "en masse" copy of what I've got here. Any commercial reproduction of images found here is expressly prohibited without the consent of the Webmaster. |
| What's stopping the Jets from returning to Winnipeg? | Check here for my feelings on what needs to happen for the Jets to return. |
| I noticed that you don't list the Jets win over the Soviet National Team among the "Top 10 Games in Jets History". Why? | Though that game did have a lot of historical significance, it did not count in the standings. I believe that games that count have more value than those that don't. |
| What did the Jets uniforms look like? | Check the Uniform History feature. |
| I'm looking for a history of jersey numbers worn by Jets players. Where can I find it? | Check the Jersey Numbers feature. |
| I'm looking for a player who was in the Jets organization, but he isn't in your database. Why? | I only list players who actually played for the Jets in the WHA or NHL. To be eligible, he would have to have played at least one game as a Jet. |
| When did the Jets play their first game? | The Jets played their first game on October 12, 1972 at Madison Square Garden against the New York Raiders. |
| When did the Jets first get their franchise? | The franchise was awarded on September 13, 1971 for a fee of $25,000. |
| I want some information on an old Jets record, such as who played the most games or who scored the most goals. Can you help? | Check the Statistics section. |
| How can I contact a former Jets player? | If the player is still active, your best bet would be to go through his current team. The only former Jets that I am aware of that are directly contactable are Joe Daley, Norm Beaudin, and Gord Tumilson. Daley operates Joe Daley's Sports Cards, which can be found here, and he is reachable by e-mail or phone. From personal experience, he is a very friendly man, so you can proceed with some confidence. Norm Beaudin's family operates Myhockeyzone.com and he can be reached through that site. Gord Tumilson operates GT Sports Marketing and his contact information can be found there. Beyond this, I have no other information. |
| Who owns the Jets logo? | I believe that the logo is the property of the NHL and/or the Arizona Screaming Weasels. |
| I sent you an e-mail and you didn't reply. Why? | Probably because you asked a question that is covered here and didn't bother to read it. I also do not respond to "flame" mail. |
| Do you have any Jets games on tape? If so, can I get a copy? | No, I have no games on tape, please do not ask. |
| Why was this team called the "Jets"? | The name was simply carried forward from the Western Canada Hockey League's Winnipeg Jets, a junior team, and also owned by Jets founder Ben Hatskin. Hatskin had been an admirer of the New York Jets, so he decided to use their moniker for his hockey teams. |
