A shut down defenseman who can move the puck and generate offence is pretty much exhibit A on most Stanley Cup winners / contenders.

To be completely fair though, a lot of us were throwing him under the bus before he was even officially hired.

Yikes...not even through mini camp and we are tossing the first coach under the bus for not being good enough. Typically Winnipeg reaction

I think Etcheverry's defensive positions are 11 rovers and 1 nose tackle. 

His comments scare the crap out of me.

The only thing that remains to see is if Obby can convince him to open a Shawarma Hage....

There's no advantage in trading out of the first round for more picks later in this draft.  A reasonable deal for the 5th pick would be like the 9th and 11th from Hamilton.
 
 
 
Definitely heard Walters say that an OL will be our pick at 2nd overall.  Will be interesting to see if they change their mind if/when Ottawa takes Lavertu.  We're getting kind of heavy on the tackle projects who probably end up playing guard because tackle ends up being an import spot (Pencer, Swiston, Neufeld, even Morley is one of those), our interior line stinks and all of those guys are having trouble playing inside.  Unless they think Foucault won't join that crew, I'd be reticent to make that pick.
 
I think I'd rather trade down and snag 2-3 guys (including one of the 2nd tier OL, a guy like Kyle Patterson or Jas Dhillon who might end up being a better CFL guard than a guy like Foucault), we could probably add a DL or LB/DB that could make our team this year.
 
Say we got offered 5 and 12 from BC, or 4 and 13 from Montreal, think it would have to be considered.

Best part about Marve is he only has one ACL to wreck so our chances are good he'll stay upright

You mean instead of golfing?

No way the Oliers trade one of their top canucks for two imports.  That would totally mess with their ratio.  

There are so many goalies out there on the market, just sign someone as a backup who can push your starter and you're set. Competition has a way of making things better and let's be honest regardless of what the numbers say Montoya isn't competition for anyone. 

Brian Elliott is likely heading to free agency, and I've always liked his game.  He'd command a healthy contract though. So what would we be willing to slice, if it came to it?

The worrisome part with Kane is that his game is not progressing...  The organization wants him to be their number one guy but his poor backchecking and bad penalties make him a second line or even third liner.
 
This is now year five - he can now be classified as injury-prone and a problem in the locker room as well as a 30-goal scorer.

Did you know Setoguchi also had a 30 goal season and several 20 plus goal seasons...should he be paid 6 million? Lol your point isn't really valid.Sometimes players like Devon simply decline... Kane I think has one more season before the Jets give up on him. He's almost a bust and 6 mill is way to much for a third liner
You can't bank on potential for ever...

Kane may be a healthy scratch tonight, as the coaching staff hasn't been happy with his play down the stretch.
 
Does this mean Paul Maurice is racist?

Look on the bright side, Toby Enstrom won't be the highest paid Jet anymore.   

Wait... are we really debating which mediocre qb is less mediocre?
 
I'd rather they bring in an untested QB who has less experience and more upside.  You know what you get with Elliott, and I don't want it.

He was much more motivated when it was his contact year.

Go bombers.

Shut up, Joe. Aren't you retired???

Fast!! I meant fast.... LOL!

This post stands
 

I hope he got in trouble for his terrible attempt at humour.

Bryan is both a rookie coach and a Canadian so he would fit right in

Suck my toe.
