Winnipeg Jets fans earn third star of elimination game, courtesy of Sportsnet (Photo) (Puck Daddy)

Without question, the most impressive thing about the Winnipeg Jets in their first-round battle with the Anaheim Ducks were the Winnipeg fans.

Granted, this is because the Jets were swept and their goalie transformed back into a sieve, but it’s also because they were deafening and passionate and supported their team even during the handshake line in the first playoff games in Winnipeg since 1996.

For that, Jets fans earned the third star of the game from Sportsnet.

(Not from the official press box three stars, mind you, who were given to Ryan Kesler, Andrew Cogliano and Mark Stuart.
