Perhaps it wasn't as anticipated as Game 1 and it probably didn't really resonate with the Jets players, but last night's tussle with the Phoenix Coyotes aka the ex-Jets was about bragging rights to the fans of Winnipeg. With all the rhetoric going back and forth from camps of both the Yotes and Jets from last summer's drama unfolding about where the Coyotes would end up (which is still in question) this game in Glendale, Arizona between the current Winnipeg Jets and the team that used to call Winnipeg home, much was on the line.
There were lots of Jets fans at Jobing.com Arena to cheer on their heroes.
