User blog:Noahtomlin/It's Official: The Winnipeg Jets are Back

CBC Sports reports that Winnipeg's new team will be officially called the Winnipeg Jets, just before the NHL draft is scheduled to commence at 7 pm EST. Other names that had been considered include the Manitoba Jets, Manitoba Moose and Winnipeg Falcons.

Unsurprisingly, the Jets was the most popular name among Winnipeggers, and Scott Brown, spokesperson for Jets owners True North Sports & Entertainment, confirmed the name with CBC.

It's safe to assume that most of you agree with the name, but feel free to tell just how excited you are that Winnipeg is finally coming back to the NHL.
