Logo of the Winnipeg Jets when they were members of the World Hockey Association. The Jets were absorbed into the NHL when the 2 leagues merged, but eventually the franchise was moved to Phoenix and became the Coyotes. While playing in the WHA, the Jets made a major signing when they lured Bobby Hull away from the NHL’s Chicago Black Hawks. They also were pioneers in exploring Europe for talent, bringing players like Anders Hedberg, Ulf Nillson and Lars-Eric Sjoberg over from Sweden. The Jets were a successful team in the WHA, winning 3 Avco Cups as league champs.
