Winnipeg's downfall was ultimately its lack of offense. Typically a star-studded group of forwards, the Jets had no issue generating shots, finishing third in the league with more than 33 shots per game. However, those shots infrequently led to goals. Winnipeg finished 12th in the league in scoring (2.9 goals per game), putting them in an uphill battle every game even with a stout defense and solid netminding from Artom Zhumbayev.

Only one player eclipsed the 40-point mark on the season, center Zach Evans. For him, a 45-point campaign was his worst since scoring 28 points in Season 34. However, it was enough to lead the team by six points over Jason Visser, who also hadn't had such a poor season With such poor offensive performances across the board, it comes as little surprise Winnipeg was unable to miracle its way into the playoffs.
