Winnipeg Jets schedule 2026-27: the dates that matter

The 2026-27 regular season is 84 games per team, the first time since 1993-94. Dates come from the schedule the team published.

The Jets have nine back-to-backs: six fully on the road, two split between home and road, and one at home.

The 2026-27 Jets: the Hellebuyck question

Scott Arniel starts his third season as head coach, with Kevin Cheveldayoff as general manager. After the 2024-25 Presidents' Trophy, the Jets slid to 35-35-12 in 2025-26, seventh in the Central Division, and missed the playoffs.

The storyline that weighs most on the odds: Connor Hellebuyck. The 2025 Hart and Vezina winner made his trade request public on August 27, 2026. The Jets suspended him on September 16, 2026, for not reporting to training camp. He is signed through 2030-31. As of this page's update on September 27, 2026, no trade had been announced. Stuart Skinner, signed for two seasons in summer 2026, is slated as the No. 1 goalie.

• Forwards: Kyle Connor (39 goals, 92 points in 2025-26), Mark Scheifele (36 goals, 103 points), Gabriel Vilardi (30 goals) and Cole Perfetti, extended for five seasons in July 2026.
• Defence: Josh Morrissey, plus free-agent signing Mario Ferraro.
• Young players: Viggo Bjorck, eighth overall in the 2026 draft, and Isak Rosen.
• Departure: Jonathan Toews announced his retirement on June 19, 2026, after one season with the Jets.

What moves the Winnipeg Jets odds

None of these guarantees a result. They're things to check before you bet.

• The goalie: a Hellebuyck trade or return would move both futures and game lines. Also check the nightly starter between Skinner and the backup.
• The Heritage Classic: outdoor ice, cold and wind can change the pace of a game. Check the forecast before betting the total.
• Back-to-backs: six of the nine are fully on the road, often with a backup goalie on the second night.
• Distance: Winnipeg is on Central time and its division rivals run from Chicago to Utah. Long flights add up, especially late in a road trip.
• Top-line reliance: a big share of the scoring runs through Connor and Scheifele. An injury or line change moves player props fast.

Markets worth a look in 2026-27

• Winnipeg Jets odds to make the playoffs (yes/no): the most direct market after missing the 2025-26 playoffs.
• Central Division and Jets Stanley Cup odds: futures; your stake is tied up until the season ends, and the goalie situation can move them.
• Player props: Connor goals, Scheifele points, saves for the starting goalie.
• Heritage Classic: moneyline, puck line and total like any game, but in outdoor conditions.
