Winnipeg Jets “explore alternatives” to home games if restrictions are maintained – Winnipeg | The Canadian News

The Winnipeg Jets are asking season ticket holders what they think about the team playing at home elsewhere with Manitoba’s current public health orders limiting the number of fans that can enter the Canada Life Center.

“We are exploring alternatives to playing in an empty building and are consulting with various stakeholders,” a True North spokesperson said in a statement.

A survey sent to season ticket holders Thursday asks several questions about future Jets home games, including: “If current public health orders remain in effect, how would you feel if the Jets’ home games Will Winnipeg Jets be played in another jurisdiction with no restrictions on fan attendance? “

Current orders allow a 50 percent or 250-person capacity, whichever is less, at indoor public events.
