The crowd then erupted when Jets was officially unveiled as the name for the new Winnipeg franchise. Thousands of fans watching from the MTS Centre in Winnipeg also roared their approval.

Their pick, Mark Scheifele, scored 75 points including 22 goals in 66 games for the Colts last season. Scheifele is a talented centre but was a bit of a surprise at number seven. He had been projected to be taken anywhere in the 12-15 range.

In an odd bit of symmetry, the last time a Winnipeg team had a first round pick was in 1995 when the old Jets selected Shane Doan also with the seventh overall pick.
