You know... you look at the prospects for 2017 draft. Patrick? That would be awesome but besides him there's 10 or 15 other guys including some big time stud d men who would look good with the Jets also. Couple interesting Finns also. A d man and a forward. Couple sons of former players in Patrick and D man Callan Foote. Ryan and Dylan Strome younger brother LW Matthew Strome. Max Tippet son I believe of Dave. Interesting American in Yamamoto... Small but tons of talent. And a couple Russian kids. Also can't forget D man from Sweden Timothy Liljegren. If the Jets miss the playoffs... they will get a pretty solid player regardless of where they pick between 1 and 16... cuz Vegas

Think the Vesey hype wasn't really needed but I guess end of summer nothing else going on... sure. Now time to see if he was worth the hype. I'd consider 30 points since he's gonna be 24 pretty much a non bust season
-
Toronto will be young. Buffalo is young. Carolina is young. Edmonton added lucic who bumps their age up quite a bit.
-
Jets won't be that bad. They won't make the playoffs I don't think but they will probably be closer to being in the playoffs than to a team like Toronto or Vancouver or 5 6 7 8 other teams who suck worse
-
Irrelevant what fans think... it's what management thinks. Pavelec has 1 year left. That's this year. This is a developmental year. It's not a make the playoffs year. Next year will be. This year? Nope

what to do with the Def. backfield
Goalie replied to MyDogHasScheifeles's topic in Blue Bomber Discussion
I've liked what Knox has shown. Perhaps Burnett comes out -
Yup. They sent scheif back to Barrie Trouba played for Michigan for a year Lowry was in junior they spent a year or more with the ahl team Nobody has been rushed yet. Ehlers maybe but... he showed he was ready. Sending him to junior wasn't gonna happen.

Pretty sure Loffler has to play because 3 Americans on the Oline Let's just... Goossen Chungh Kohlert A Harris Westerman Shologan Yup. Loffler for sure cuz starting Hurl isn't a good idea. Playing JFG over an American receiver isn't a good idea. Neufeld is 6 gamed I believe No other real option. Loffler stays at safety Randle will take Roberts spot Adams or Frederick? Rotate them both Receivers? Dressler will be back and then Smith. Adams is probably long term. Dressler Smith Denmark Davis Kohlert Dressler takes K Adams spot. Smith prob takes Mayo spot -
No need to rush Connor if he isn't ready. Training camp will decide that. Thing is comparing Connor who is 19 to Vesey who is 23 24 isn't fair... Vesey is what he is... his upside? There isn't much. What you see is what you get. Connor is still a kid .. a kid who needs to put on some weight and has time to develop still. If he's not ready... he's going to be on the Moose and it wouldn't surprise me if that's where he starts. He probably won't finish the season there but there really is no need to rush him If he's not nhl ready... his D game definitely needs work. Trust me if Ehlers could have been sent to the Moose last year... he would have been. They weren't gonna send him to junior. Connor? He can be sent to the Moose.

Lol. 3 who cares really. Paige has become just a gongshow. Del Rio is a joke and Eva? Rumor going around that she didn't fail but actually botched the test

If it was up to me stafford Burmi Thorburn Stuart Pavelec Peluso would all not be on the team this season but it's not... so therefore pavelec Stuart thorburn stafford Burmi will be on the team this year. I doubt they trade anyone before the season starts. It's 1 more year of development for sure. Then next season when pavelec thorburn stafford Burmi aren't here cuz their contracts expired... Jets will start to be playoff contenders. I'd expect that by Laine and Connors last year of their ELC that this team should be a legit playoff team but that's 2 years away still.... we will see what happens but I'd honestly suspect that we struggle this season... I think a few players will have very good years but I think because we are still very young that growing pains plus a combo of pavelec in net probably equals a lottery pick next season
-
Then he shouldn't be playing. **** happens. I doubt it will be needed tho since he will probably be signed by then
-
Laine probably has the best chance to score 25 goals because he is a goal scorer .. will he? Maybe. Maybe not. More than likely not tho because he's a rookie. He's going to be a very good player and so will Connor and even Ehlers but you know what? It takes a while to be a very good player. I wouldn't put ridiculous expectations on Laine or Connor... they are kids... they have some maturing and growing to do still... I guess you can say... they are just boys still playing against men. Look at Scheif .. he needed a couple years to really find his stride... it's gonna take Laine Connor and for that matter Ehlers a couple years to do the same I'm not sure I'd Lol @ Laine scoring 25 tho... it's possible. He's pretty much a once in a generation talent from Finland so who knows. If Connor puts up 15... that will be a good season for him. Why should we replace stafford tho? I mean... he's a 20 goal guy and if the kids ain't ready for a top 6 role... Stafford is there. He's a good 1 year stop gap. It's not even all about scoring goals tho... it's about being responsible in both ends of the ice. .. Laine pretty much is but like Ehlers last year... Connor will be learning to play D on the ice. Lower the expectations. It's better to be surprised than disappointed
-
I would imagine it would be negotiated between the NHL and the agent... It won't be for Millions and Millions of dollars tho.

Expectations seem to be high for a team with a ton of youth on it. I mean, If Connor has a similar year that Ehlers had last year, that's a good year, same for Laine, Yeah they both have natural goal scoring abilities but they are gonna be rookies, rookies have good games, they have bad games, they have good stretches, they have bad stretches, This idea that Laine and Connor can replace Ladd plus Staffords goal scoring is far fetched, They will be ROOKIES. Lower the expectations a wee bit here, who was the last Rookie to put up 25 30 goals? I honestly can't even remember, it just doesn't happen these days very often. Armia on the second line is definitely LOL... not a chance, he's a third or 4th liner for sure... the hype Armia has gotten is just... I don't get it actually, is he a good player? sure... has he shown the ability to put up points tho? Not really... not at all actually, Armia played twice as many games with the Jets than Dano did, they each had 4 goals a piece, Dano is more of a top 6 candidate than Armia is and it's not even close. Surely tho, one of these line combos will be right, because pretty much every possible combo has been mentioned now... but it wouldn't surprise me one bit to see these line combo predictions all be dead dead wrong... But since this is the thread... what the heck right? Ehlers Scheif Wheeler Laine Little Stafford Connor Perreault Armia Matthias Lowry Dano No Burmi, No Thorburn, No Peluso.. No Lemieux. Thorburn in the Press Box since Lemieux is probably better served playing actual minutes with the Moose. Wouldn't shock me tho if Connor starts with the Moose also, just because he can... and despite what maybe 1 or 2 people might think, The Jets aren't gonna be playoff contenders this year either, Do i hope they are? Sure, But reality is, with so much youth in the lineup, it looks to be one more year of developing and that's fine. I think next season is the year they will be ready to compete for a playoff spot. This year? Unless Pavelec isn't the starting goalie and unless all the young guys step up and have seasons to remember, i don't see it happening.

Omega has that Brian Pillman feel to him, He's a star in the making for sure. He's gonna be big, When he decides to go to WWE, He will be main eventing in no time.

Tough call. I think I'll go with Messam
-
Pavelec. Hutch. Stuart. Buff. Enstrom. Wheeler. And everyone besides scheif trouba Burmi and little say hello also. Really... 90 percentof the "current" roster didn't.

Bilukidi for Jensen and a pick

Rider Pride? Sounds more like SDS to me... you know what that means? Very odd medical problem... Small **** Syndrome -
Still makes no sense considering little is better than Staal and only a year older. What makes even less sense is talking about our future centers but then trading not 1 but 2 guys who could very well be 3rd and 4th line centers or better in the future... plus myers plus Stafford to Carolina of all places who have a bunch of very good Young D men. Fleury? He's just a prospect. He's worth way less than Myers. Staal for 7 more years? Why. He's not that good plus he's overpaid for what he brings. I wouldn't trade for Staal ..and I highly doubt Chevy would either. Why. I don't get the why. Explain it all you want... it still makes No sense for both the Jets and Hurricanes

Oh no. It's a huge conspiracy against the riders. I mean ratio violations.... standing at center field.... being a douchebag coach.... having 30 other players or more around practicing.... yeah... it's a conspiracy against the riders. It's not cheating and getting caught.... it's a conspiracy. Cuz the Great Saskatchewan Rough Riders are hated by the league Don't you know? Saskatchewan and it's tiny population is what keeps the league going.
