Personally I love the logo!
very simple yet effective and the colours mesh really well with eachother! Cant wait to see the actual jerseys.
Tomorrow I am buying a hat and going to get it autographed by Eric Fehr at the signing Its a good day to be a Winnipeger.

I think the wordmark and the wing logo (shoulder patch I'm guessing?) are really nice. Not so sure about the main logo though.

I'll note that I rarely like new team logos right away though.

And ANYTHING is better than the Thrashers logos/uniforms. Worst of all time!!

Interesting, thanks for the link just1n.

Very military-style look to the main emblem . . . but, it works. Thought it was a bit busy at first with the all the points from the jet and leaf behind it . . . but I think it works, the more I look at it.

The part with The Jets written out looks sharp.

Not bad! Certainly much better than many of the other new logos in recent years, and I really like the strong use of the Canadian red leaf - I give it two thumbs up.

I really like it and considering it's not the old Jets franchise (Coyotes) who are now there, it's nice they changed it up!

Colours look great, it'll be nice to see it on an actual uniform.

I think they did a very good job - the colours are perfectly fine, the heritage tie-in is solid.
Good work.

This is quality. It is very close to the Canadian Air Force logo which is what it appears they were going for with a military theme. I can't recall who said it, but I agree the writing reminds me of old Molson Canadian lettering.

Overall, it's great. It's new and slick looking but it screams of tradition. The perfect combination for this new team in an old market.

Well done Jets. Now, all you have to do is win the Cup before Toronto does(but after Edmonton)

Well, we'll see how they are on the jerseys.

Still not sold on the main logo. I was driving on a freeway tonight, and was passed by a car with a Canadian Airforce sticker - a blue circle with a red maple leaf in the centre. Easy to see what it was even from a distance. Made me think of the new Jets logo of course and how muddled it would look from that distance with the pointy jet on top of the multi-angled pointy leaf. Too much going on.

Brand New did a piece on it: http://www.underconsideration.com/brandnew/archives/winnipeg_hockey_gets_bellicose.php

Wayyyyy better than the Thrashers stuff though, I will say again, and now I'll step off my soapbox.

I personnally like the logo and the "2nd logo" with the sticks and military grade.

The "jets" writing is not the best, i won't complain but it could been better!

Do you guys have any ideas on the color of the jerseys?

joe is a god, if u dont agree....i dont care

Yeah you're right. It also resembles the leaf on the Canadian Flag. Same as the Maple Leafs logo, except different colour. This is probably because they all use the same f***ing leaf.
