Hartford has told the Islanders they could temporarily play there once they are done at Barclays. Interesting option for sure. Islanders probably gonna build a new rink in Queens is the rumor but they'd need a temp home for a couple seasons

To the surprise of absolutely nobody

Seattle is probably the plan there. Keep them out west. Quebec probably gets Carolina and probably soon

He will clear because he has major off ice problems

Ya... personal issue eh. I don't really buy that. It plays a role but it's not the reason he's been out this long. It's an injury. A few weeks ago Maurice said he plateaued in his recovery.

With that said it's not really about Buff vs Trouba vs Myers. It's about managing the cap. We spend a ton on our D right now... that's with Trouba on a bargain and ELC Morrissey... Somebody needs to move cuz paying this much for our D isn't working. Buff? NMC currently. Trouba? If he wants to be here (that's the 6 to 7 million dollar question) you keep him. Myers? That's a lot of cash for your 3rd pair RHD....

Trouba wasn't exactly good last year or the year b4. Had a good rookie year but he regressed but he looks like hes coming in to his own now. Myers probably was better than Trouba last year. And he was looking Damn good until he got hurt.... Yet again.

Something that isn't brought up much as it relates to Trouba. Trouba signed a 2 year deal. Buff has a NMC for 2 seasons then it becomes a limited NTC where he has 14 teams he can't be traded to. So... you gotta wonder if maybe just maybe trouba signs an extension and in 2 or 3 years buff is traded. Myers? I think they should leave him exposed if they cant trade him or keep him out all year and Vegas wont take him.. injuries are a legit concern. Regardless tho..our D zone play as a team is pretty poor. We chase guys around and around.... man on man style D... it's not working really.... we need to fix our Team D play.

It's possible Perreault is traded before the expansion draft and I agree that his 4.5 or whatever it is plays a role

Pavelec will play. GUARANTEED 9 and 0 vs the Central in out last 9 games. Can they make it 10? I'm afraid that they have a tendency to play down to the other teams level and hope that's not the case here. This is a game that will show me if the Jets are playoff contenders or pretenders. A playoff contender would come out and stomp the Avs. Ass wooping style. I want to see them destroy the Avs. No mercy. Hopefully they do that. If not and we lose... yeah we ain't making the playoffs

It's probably time to split up MLA... they haven't been good for a while Perreault Petan Armia Mathias Lowry Stafford

If Jets win pav is the man... if they lose its because the team sucks. Is that how it works?

Yeah our D zone play as a whole is pretty awful and they Def need to fix that. Scoring 4 plus a game to win isn't sustainable. Once the scoring dries up.. it will... we won't win as much

Does he need to make that turning point save tho if he makes the save on the 2nd Dallas goal or even 3rd one? He was good but... 6 years of evidence should be enough.

He was good. But agreed. It's not sustainable at all. You saw what happened when we couldn't score 4 plus vs SJ and Anaheim. We lost.

Your memory ain't what it used to be. We haven't been scoring 4 plus goals a game. Pav was good but he's not the reason we are winning. The team is scoring more than 3 goals a game. Like I said score 4 or more and we should win. That was a really awful keep the lead mode all 3rd tho. Ridiculous actually. If not for 3 or 4 posts we lose this one. Pav was good but... 4 goals for a game and we should win. He's the same goalie he's been for 5 or 6 seasons. Nothing changed

Hopefully pavelec and his 885 save percentage through 2 periods can inspire the Jets to score more goals.

Hes the guy in the pic lol

Last shot wins pretty much. Pav is frustrating. Makes saves he probably shouldn't but let's in crappy ones. 2nd and 3rd goal were bad.

Well he only plays like 4 minutes a game and there's a reason for that. He's not that good

It's little things like this that make you think him being here long term Is a real possibility

Shaw plays for Montreal

Also... winning games with sub 900 goaltending is not sustainable at all.

Thorburn is also a ufa and as strange as it sounds might get a pick for him. Playoff race? Looks are deceiving because we have played more games than the teams in front of us. Need a long winning streak to pretty much be in a playoff race cuz while it appears we are right there... we also have the 3rd worst winning percentage in the conference. Right now we are probably the 5th worst team in the league.. not quite but notice the games in hand and points https://www.nhl.com/standings/league
