EDMONTON It s been more than three decades since the Winnipeg Jets and Edmonton Oilers last met in the playoffs, but the circumstances remain eerily similar. The Jets 2.0 are once again running into the game s top player in Connor McDavid, 30-plus years after the original Jets experienced nearly annual nightmares against Wayne Gretzky and Co. The Oilers and Jets met six times in the post-season between 1983 and 1990. Edmonton won each series and captured five Stanley Cups during the span. I think it was bad timing on our part because we were playing against one of the best teams in hockey history. Edmonton was loaded up, said Dave Ellett, a former Jets defenceman who saw action in four iterations of the playoff saga.
