NHL® Coin and Stamp Gift Set - Winnipeg Jets™ (2014)
The Winnipeg Jets played their first NHL season in Winnipeg in 2011. Formerly the Atlanta Thrashers, the team relocated to Winnipeg to the joy of hockey fans in that city and across Canada and took the name of Winnipeg's former NHL team. The Winnipeg Jets notable "aviator blue" uniform design and team logo honour the Royal Canadian Air Force, which has borne these colours on its own military uniforms and aircraft, and recall the city's robust hockey history.
