Here is a summary of what the Winnipeg Jets have accomplished this season and how it compares to the franchise’s other seasons.
Winnipeg Jets Second Team In NHL History With 13 Wins In 14 Games
Other NHL teams have gotten off to a good start, but that normally does not continue through 14 games. The 2007-2008 Ottawa Senators was the only team besides the 2024-2025 Winnipeg Jets to win 13 out of their first 14 games.

Jets fans hope their team does not continue to follow in the Senators’ footsteps from that season. Following their hot start, the Senators faltered and endured a coaching change. The Senators finished in seventh place in the Eastern Conference with a 43-31-8 record.
Winnipeg Jets Are First In NHL In All Important Measurables
This team is finding different ways to win each day; however, the Winnipeg Jets are still the top team in the NHL in all the important statistics including wins (13), points (26), winning percentage (.929%), power play (42.1%), goals for (63), and goal differential (33).
There are no weaknesses in the Jets game right now.
Winnipeg Jets Are Breathing Rare Air By Their Standards
This is not a franchise associated with this level of play. Since moving from Atlanta (formerly the Atlanta Thrashers) in 2011, the Winnipeg Jets have earned 13 wins in warp speed.
The Winnipeg Jets are now the 2nd team in NHL history to have 13 wins in their first 14 games. The Ottawa Senators in 2007-2008, were the 1st NHL team to have 13 wins in their first 14 games. #WinnipegJets#OttawaSenators pic.twitter.com/ydeP9uXmwI

Last season it took the Winnipeg Jets until the season’s 23rd game to get the 13th win. In the years with the Winnipeg Jets’ strongest starts, 13 wins were not achieved until Game 20 (in the 2022-2023 season and 2020-2021 season). In 2013-2014, it took until Game 29, and 2011-2012 and 2018-2019 it took until Game 29.
Next Game
It is a long season ahead so there is no time for the Jets to rest on their laurels. The team next faces the 8-4 Dallas Stars on Saturday, November 9, 2024 at 3 PM EST in Winnpeg.
