A huge sore spot for Winnipeg Jets fans over the past few years has been their home game attendance.

Although the organization has faced criticism and rumours of relocation, there are positive signs that are showing an upward trend in ticket sales.
There was a positive swing in the Jets ticket sales late last season. As the team won more games and was pushing for first place in the Central Division and Western Conference, the Jets sold out a handful of their games down the stretch and of course, into the playoffs.

The sentiment heading into next season remains positive for the Winnipeg fan base. With plenty of games expected to sell out during the course of the 2024-25 season, fans should continue to see a steady growth in ticket sales and attendance.
Gary Bettman and Mark Chipman held court among fans and addressed the issue head-on, they had conversations with corporations in an attempt to regain their trust, and I believe their efforts were a big reason you saw consecutive sellouts late in the 2023-24 season, and could make a real difference in improving the season ticket base heading into next year.

Fans should continue to make efforts to attend home games to show support for their hockey club, although reducing the price of beers wouldn't hurt...
