The Winnipeg Jets were the solid upset pick in the 2015 Stanley Cup playoffs. Size, speed, good puck possession numbers? Add what was supposed to be an absurd home ice advantage at the white out crazed MTS Centre and the Jets seemed a tough out. But it didn’t play out that way in the first round against Anaheim. And wow was I so wrong on the prior linked column.
Though the series felt much closer than the final game score indicated, the Ducks swept the Jets out of the playoffs in a 5-2 victory Wednesday night at the MTS Centre.
