The 1992–93 Winnipeg Jets season was the Jets' 21st season, their 14th in the National Hockey League. The Jets qualified for the playoffs, losing in the first round. Winnipeg was not shut out in any of their regular-season games or playoff games.
On June 20, 1992, the Jets and Chicago Blackhawks made a trade at the 1992 NHL Entry Draft, as the Jets acquired the Blackhawks 17th and 27th overall picks for the Jets 12th and 36th overall picks. With their first round, 17th overall pick at the draft, Winnipeg selected Sergei Bautin from Dynamo Moscow. Bautin, a defenseman, had a goal and four points in 37 games with Dynamo. Other notable players the Jets selected in the draft included Boris Mironov in the second round, and Nikolai Khabibulin in the ninth round.
The club announced that 1988 NHL Entry Draft first round draft pick Teemu Selanne would join the Jets for the 1992-93 season. Selanne had 39 goals and 62 points in 44 games with Jokerit of the SM-liiga in 1991-92. He also played for Finland at the 1992 Winter Olympics in Albertville, France, scoring eight goals and 11 points in seven games.
On August 24, 1992, Winnipeg traded away defenseman Shawn Cronin to the Quebec Nordiques for Dan Lambert in a minor transaction. Lambert had six goals and 15 points in 28 games with the Nordiques in the 1991-92 season.
