Jets Nation have recently come out with the 2024-25 predictions concerning the NHL's Central Division.
The Jets will finish 4th in the Central division
I really wanted to be optimistic and place the Jets higher in these predictions, but I have the Jets finishing in a wild card spot at the middle of the Central Division. The core of Mark Scheifele, Kyle Connor, Josh Morrissey and Nikolaj Ehlers will look to build on what was a successful season in 2023-24.
Of course you can't forget Connor Hellebuyck, an easily top 3 goalie in the league, who is poised to continue to help lead the Jets to victory. The Jets depth has improved, but it's going to be tough to compete with the other 3 teams listed ahead of them in this division.
With no key roster additions made during the NHL off season, it will be difficult for the Jets to match up with last years success.
Although this prediction isn't as grim as what many Jets enthusiasts initially thought, the team will need to dig deep this season in terms of what the roster currently looks like.
