  1. Elite players are not going to come here via free agency or trade so the only real option is to get a top 3 pick and hope he blossoms into a superstar. This upcoming draft weakens out early so a top 3 pick is essential, trading Buff and Ladd should help us get there.Not a playoff contender winning one losing two. Playoff teams made winning runs not losing streaks. Todays game proves that while we have some good players we have no finishers and unfortunately it looks like Buffalo has a younger and better core, we have a long way to go.
  2. They need more players that will drive to the blue paint, instead what we have is a lot of perimeter play, cute stick handling and shots with no one in front of the net, but what really bothers me is the passing on this team. The passes are either in the skates or on the wrong side of where they should be which slows plays from taking shape, really is evident on the pp.
  3. Jets outplayed and out shot the Sabre's no points for doing that.
  4. All roads teams win this weekend
  5. Philly is not a playoff team this year if they want Buff they'll wait till the off-season not give up anybody and sign him. TB becomes a instant Stanley Cup contender if they trade for Buff but there cap situation may not allow them to sign Buff long term. Stamkos is key here as he probably goes free agent maybe they can lock up Buff long term maybe Buff doesn't want to play there. TB offers Chevy a 1st round and a B prospect a Ufa Buff is gone.
  6. Can see a non playoff bound team trading for Buff unless some kind of extension is signed.
  7. Helle did what a good goalie should do allowed no goals in the first 10 minutes to keep the Jets in the game and continued through out the game. Like the way he controlled his rebounds tonight.
  8. Praying already that Willy doesn't get hurt next season.
  9. Seems like a guy who's happy to bounce from team to team not eager to come up north, can't say i blame him.
  10. I suspect this is true in part Calgary gave a extra year, salary was very close but there were to many stories about Frolik's wife and her unhappiness in Winnipeg, maybe true maybe not water under the bridge
  11. So from one sour face to another
  12. You will get no NHL ready or top line talent for either one , best case is 1st round and low prospect for each if traded
  13. Have a look a the coming draft projection, not to many Canadians in the top ten, the world is catching up to us and we have to realize that we are not the dominant country in hockey like we used to be. This junior has some talent but are very undisciplined and there goaltending is average to poor. Remind you of any team we know.
  14. This could be a possibility if we can pry Laurent from Hamilton in free agency
  15. Could of Should of .........Does'n't look very promising for a team trying to make up ground in the standings. Coaching staff needs to be looked at same mistakes made yet again.
  16. This game has been so disappointing because Arizona is just terrible and we are probable going to lose,on a positive note good crowd in the arena...... thanks Jets fans.
  17. Laurent before Capicciotti in my books this team needs tackle help asap add Harris and a decent o line guy and free agency should be viewed as a success.
  18. A meddling owner wants to draft and trade players, a prudent owner wants to know how his money is spent, i believe Chipman is the latter
  19. If Helle continues to play well and the Jets win more than they lose he will get plenty of NHL experience this year, Pavs must see the writing on the wall and his time as Jets goalie is coming to an end, now time for Chevy to look at maybe trying to unload him if possible.
  20. Sooner or later they will have to go to the province hat in hand
  21. Happy New Year everybody
  22. Hawerchuk = HOF.................... Doan not so much
  23. Hey a sellout for the Coyotes last night to bad 2/3 of the crowd were for the Black Hawks, as for the records of 1.0 they can keep them, i am old enough to remember all the players the memories are all that count to me.
  24. Easy pass on both players, ones past his best years yeats the other never made it there
  25. Signing Ladd to long term contract with big money would be a huge mistake, at the moment his play doesn't warrrant 1st line minutes but in the coming years with a cap friendly contract he would be a very serviceable 3rd liner. Personally I would trade him this team is not built to win this year or even next so why pay guys big money for more of the same results. Big money should go to players that will get you to the playoffs and keep getting you there year after year not one and done.
