  1. Why? Maybe cause Pav has not changed his style of play? Im more of a Pavs fan than not. But I felt that if he was under-performing expectations for two or three years then maybe it was time to change the coach, not hope the same player in the same system with the same coach suddenly improves. But Im not outraged or anything. Hopefully it works out.
  2. His salary jumped out at me too. Good, lets hope they see him as a top quality player and are correct!
  3. That would make sense if Wade was the coach last year only. But by this standard, he wears the goat horns for the under-performances the previous few years too. But he's a Moose guy so he will keep his job
  4. @TSN1290Radio: #NHLJets announce they have agreed to terms with fwd Brendan Lemieux on 3-year, 2-way, entry level contract with an AAV of $1.125 million.
  5. Great article: http://www.latimes.com/sports/kings/la-sp-kings-voynov-elliott-20150703-column.html If the Kings had any character at all they would have terminated his contract already. Mike Richards might win his appeal just on the basis that they still employ Voynov and Stoll. I love that they can't take action because they are still investigating. They became aware of the Richards thing on Friday and had terminated him by, what, Monday? But Voynov who has no been convicted, they need more time to Investigate. Uh huh Beating up women seems to be treated as just one of those things that young millionaire athletes do.
  6. I'll be in the best seat in the house. The one in front of my tv.
  7. Surprised Cormier re signed. Must not have received other offers. His ship has sailed. Good moose player though. Fraser might have some upside though
  8. Cut Richards and keep Voynov. Drugs are bad. Hitting women is okay.
  9. It's not about squeezing an extra prospect. It's about killing our own chances. You're not getting bodies back that will help you at the deadline. Not to mention the balance of power ends up solely with the player.
  10. They are crazy if they wait for the deadline because then they end up in the Frolik conundrum. Do you trade a guy you need for your own playoff push and the damage it does to the team psyche to trade a top guy in a playoff battle? Or keep him and lose him for nothing? You can't be in that position.
  11. @CJOBSports: #NHLJets have signed forwards Patrice Cormier & Matt Fraser to two-way deals worth $650,000.
  12. @Rich_Hammond: Voynov has officially pleaded no contest to misdemeaner @Rich_Hammond: DA said Voynov faced max of 364 days in county jail on new charge. It will be 90 days instead. @Rich_Hammond: DA says conviction will result in Voynov deportation. Defense is objecting to that, saying it is not mandatory. Some debate. @Rich_Hammond: Voynov has officially pleaded no contest to misdemeanor.
  13. Any player that doesn't want to be here, it's not unique to Winnipeg. Every team has players that didn't want to be there for whatever reason. Kunitz put Toronto on his no trade list. It's not a negative on winnipeg. As all the talk that the jets "lost" Frolik. We didn't lose him. He's a free agent.
  14. There is some talk around social media that his wife didn't like winnipeg. You suspect that maybe jets offered more money but less term and Frolik wanted more of both to stay here
  15. Mike green is way over paid. Saw one analysis that called him a declining #4 dman on the caps to the highest paid dman on the wings. The TSN guys were all calling the Frolik contract a huge win for his agents while Acknowledging they'd all want him on their team. So it seemed to surprise them he got that much. I think we're conditioned to it bexause everyday we heard he wanted $5m so 4.3 seems like a deal. Justin Williams would have been great here. I think maybe the signing of Burmi and the desire to use Ehlers closed up a hole for the jets.
  16. The problem is you end up in another Frolik scenario if you keep buff until his contract runs out. If you get the deadline with the jets battling for a playoff spot what do you do? It would be a terrible position to be in. Buff isn't frolik. They have to make a decision before the season begins.
  17. Imagine the people getting hot and bothered over Frolik. Now times it by 1000 if the jets let buff play out his final season. Sign or trade.
  18. Probably true but I think they could be very good together.
  19. O'dell over Burmi? My goodness. One of those coil upset crack the lineup without injuries. The other played every game from his draft year
  20. Makes burmi deal look even better. Different because kne is UFA and one is rfa but still...
