The Winnipeg Reds (after the river), but that would undoubtedly be construed as racist.

Winnipeg Sandbaggers?

Winnipeg Dikes? lol- we'll save that for the women's league...

Well, last night at the draft they revealed the name is (once again) the Jets. It seems a little wierd to me because the Jets moved to Phoenix. Shane Doan was a Jet, and has never signed with a different organization but now the Jets will be his opposition? I'll admit to having some doubts about the NHL's return to Winnipeg and this naming thing, on top of the debacle with the replacing of the management team and coaching staff, has me wondering what kind of circus just rolled into Winter-peg...

The new name should be the combination of the old name, Jets and one of the proposed names, The Moose.

Here come the Winnipeg Joose!
