Due to the
CanadaβU.S. border restrictions brought in as a result of the
COVID-19 pandemic, the Jets were re-aligned with the other six Canadian franchises into the newly-formed
North Division. The league's 56 game season was played entirely within the new divisions, meaning that Winnipeg and the other Canadian teams played an all-Canadian schedule for the 2020β21 regular season as well as the first two rounds of the
2021 Stanley Cup playoffs.
On May 5, the Jets clinched a playoff berth after a 4β0 defeat over the
Calgary Flames.[2] In the first round of the playoffs, they completed the franchise's first playoff sweep against the
Edmonton Oilers, with a 4β3 triple overtime win in game four.[3] However, the Jets were upset in the second round, being swept by the
Montreal Canadiens.[4]
