Winnipeg Jets & Farm Team Collective Performance 2012-2014

by Chris Billows in Jets Flight Control 0 comments tags: Jets Farm Team, Jets Improvement, Minor League Stats
The professional hockey world shifted a bit when Atlanta Thrashers relocated to become the Winnipeg Jets. Not only did the NHL get affected, but so did the minor league affiliations which needed to be reestablished. Atlanta had affiliations with the Chicago Wolves of the AHL and the Gwinnett Glaidiators of the ECHL. Those were ended in the summer of 2011 when Winnipeg established a new affiliation hierarchy by forming a new team in St. John’s and establishing an agreement with a new ECHL team, the Colorado Eagles. The purpose of this post is to track how the three teams have risen and fallen along side each other to see if there is any pattern. It tracks the 2nd and 3rd seasons. You can see the first and second season comparison from 2011-13 here.   This was the second year of the operating agreement between the three franchises. The St-John’s IceCaps had a bust sophomore year. The Winnipeg Jets unfortunately carried on the mediocre tradition of the Thrashers while the Eagles had a disappointing regular season. There was not much to celebrate. In addition, unfortunately for NHL Hockey fans the 2012-13 season was almost halved due to the player lockout. The […]

Winnipeg Jets Prospects Evaluation 2011 to 2013

by Chris Billows in Jets Flight Control 0 comments tags: Jets Draft, Jets Improvement, Minor League Stats
The Jets are holding their Prospects Training Camp today. Related to that is how well Winnipeg Jets Management have done with cultivating a pool of viable prospects. The Winnipeg Jets conducted their first draft (June 24-25, 2011) within a month of moving the Atlanta Thrashers to Winnipeg (May 31, 2011). Now two year later in 2013, we are starting to see some improvement in the future prospects of the Jets. This blog post summarizes the work of Corey Pronman of HockeyProspectus.com who has completed an evaluation of all NHL prospects. By focusing on the Jets prospects standings for the last two years and player performance stats, I can provide a final evaluation about where each Prospect from 2011 stands in 2013 in making the Jets. Note that the stats for each league is combined regular season and playoffs games. Next year, I will do the same process, but it will be years 2012 to 2014. The Jets have been getting better according to Corey Pronman. In 2011, the Jets were ranked 29 out of 30 teams. In 2012 they moved up six positions to be ranked 23 of 30 teams. And in just this year, they moved up an astounding […]
