Toby Enstrom only knew the Winnipeg Jets. Well, that’s not entirely true. He knew the Atlanta Thrashers, too. But Enstrom only knew one franchise. And the Winnipeg Jets haven’t been without Enstrom, ever.
They’re in uncharted territory, but I think they’ll be okay. Enstrom had 54 goals and 308 points in his 11 year career, and he’s not quite hanging up the skates.
Enstrom signed with Modo out in Sweden and, in showing how good that league is, immediately became the team captain. He spent some years with the team before he came to the NHL to play with the Thrashers, who drafted him in the eighth round in 2003.
