Ecole Luxton School students tell the Winnipeg Jets what they think it will take to win a Stanley Cup.

One student says the key is practice, practice, practice at least twice a day. Another thinks the teamshould watch their games from last year to see where they went wrong.

But not all of the suggestions were related to their performance on the ice. One student saidthe players should all remember to call their mothers before each game.

The kids also said that healthy eating is the key to winning, although they don't all agree on what that means. They suggested everything from smoothies, to energy drinks, to hot Cheetos before the games.

While the advice ranged from sharpening their skates, to getting a good night's sleep, and to always weartheir seatbelts the message was clear for the Jets to do their best.
