No one knows why Bobby Hull decided to skip his induction into the brand new Winnipeg Jets Hall of Fame, and Hull himself isn’t talking. He has issued only a polite statement and declined to speak to Postmedia via a kindly Blackhawks PR guy. The trio took the Jets to two championships in the old World Hockey Association and were honoured in a ceremony before the team played Toronto. The Jets’ announcement of the Hot Line’s induction was mildly controversial because of Hull. His induction was an acknowledgement of his greatness as an athlete, nothing more.
