Goalie

I think both Trouba and Scheif sign long term, I'd prefer one be 6 or 7 and the other be 7 or 8 year deals... For Scheif, something around 4.5- 5.5 seems fair. For Trouba, It's tricky, i think 5 - 5.5 is fair for him also, Keep in mind, you are buying some ufa years here so... who knows how much that is worth. Lowry would be a bridge deal, 2 years max... not sure how much, not much more than he is making now probably, let's say 1.5 per year. Armia? same thing, 1.5 a year on a 2 year deal Hutch? Depends what they do with PAV, i think Hutch is the better goalie, i think he is more consistent than pav, Pav has a losing record in his career I don't know how much of a market there will be for goalies so, Let's just assume pav is traded or bought out, both options for sure... Hutch would be a good back up to Helle for a year or probably 2 until Comrie is ready.

And no. Only pavelec sucks. Hutch is fine and would be the ideal backup. Comrie is good but he needs another year or 2 in the A. Hutch makes like what? 600 700 K? Pav makes 4.5 or so and should be in the K.

Part of the problem tonight was ESW was on the ice every other shift. Maurice has a habit of over playing guys and you could tell near the middle of the 3rd that ESW was getting gassed. They are good but play the other lines more also. Need to get armia and Dano away From Lowry. Lowry is ok bit he's probably best used as a 4th line winger and not a center. Play them with Perreault.

Tanking? The only way they are tanking is by playing the goalie who sucks more Last 5 games Pav Vs Florida .864 save percentage loss Vs Dallas .846 loss Vs Tbay .808 pulled Vs Car .931 loss Vs EDM .955 win Hutch Vs Pitt .879 loss Vs Dallas .900 win Vs Florida .906 loss Vs Boston .926 no decision Vs Colorado .941 win Hutch has been better.

I'm not convinced Raffl is back next year with the moose or jets but I hope they give him a call up.

Could see Enstrom plus a prospect for Hamonic. Maybe myers also goes. Think Drouin ends up a Jet. Get this feeling. I'll make my legit prediction after the draft. Matthews changes things. So does Laine and Puljujarvi

Toronto will finish last but who really knows who wins picks 1 2 and 3

I wouldn't expect many free agent signings

Would Stempniak have signed a 2 way deal? Nope. Chevy had a very good PC. Feb 29th on the jets site. Ppl should listen.

Jets played well. Dano is very strong defensively but needs time much like armia did. Got out goalied once again. Buff and Trouba were very good. Not sure why they don't play together Myers and enstrom were very meh. Chiarot was ok. Postma was better than stu and Pardy Thought most forwards were solid. Really does come down to Pavelec sucking Pretty tough to score in the 3rd when Florida Is playing 5 guys at their blue line

Raff hopefully gets a call up. He could be a good bottom 6 player. The only concern would be injuries.

People actually take the day off work for this trade deadline crap. Lol. 1 trade so far involving basically 2 nobodies. The biggest news is waiver pick ups. Kris Russell who has similar fancy stats as mark Stuart and a washed up Dan hamhuis are the big deals today maybe? Man. What a joke this stuff is.

Done with the Stempniak talk. He makes no difference to a team who is tied for 3rd last in the league

Yup. I can't have a differing opinion than you I guess. Cuz if I do I'm making stuff up. You are high on Crouse. I'm not. It's that simple. Watch him for yourself a bit. Form your own opinion on him.

Trouba isn't being traded lol.

Stemp playing on the third or 4th line doesn't get the amount of points he has now. That's just reality. The guy is a journeyman gonna be on his like 9th team in 9 years. A 2nd? Lol from who. Jets got him for a guy not playing in the nhl or ahl anymore. Stempniak is the most over rated player in the history of jets 1.0 and 2.0 Stempniak makes no difference to this team. We are tied for 3rd last. Stemp doesn't change that. Lol at a 2nd Rd pick. Highly doubt that. Stempniak is not worth a 2nd Rd pick cuz on a decent team he's a 4th liner. 4th liners don't get 2nd Rd picks

No. Jets won't have interest in Russell. He's basically mark Stuart. Plus he's a ufa to be so if they wanted him... sign him as a free agent Tkachuk is being over rated I think. If Matthews and the Finns are not there when the jets pick and they want BPA and not LHD then Nylander or even dubois are your guys. Keller is also coming on strong. I'm not convinced Tkachuk is the BPA after the top 3. His numbers playing in the ohl aren't really that great. Benefited from playing with Matthews last year with the USNTDP.

Tkachuk? Not needed. If we aren't picking top 3 we are going LHD for sure. Chychrun Sergachev Bean. Juolevi. No way we take Tkachuk. Imo Matthews or the Finns if it's top 3. If not. It's a LHD for sure. I like Chychrun for the record. I think if anyone but edmonton gets him he's good. If not. He busts. Crouse is 6 foot 4 215 lbs playing against boys and has 16 goals. He's Adam Lowry pretty much. If I was the gm.... 1. I wouldn't really care what fans thought about who I draft and 2. Certainly wouldn't be posting my thoughts online.

Dano isn't going anywhere, kids got skills. He just needs time to adapt to a new team.

Cormier is probably a good guy to have on the farm. I don't think i'd move him. You need some "ahl" vets on the Moose and he seems like he's a good leader out there. Yeah he will never be anything in the NHL but he's a decent AHL'r

Edmonton is gonna pick 4th and take Chychrun and he will be a bust.. Book it.

Jets can't finish last, they don't suck as much as Toronto or Edmonton. Top 3 picks are determined by a draft lottery anyway so this thread is somewhat pointless. Doesn't matter who finishes 30th 29th or 28th. The lottery will determine who picks 1st 2nd and 3rd.

Crouse is just a big player, similar to Lowry. Danos ceiling is much higher. People get caught up on size a little 2 much. That was what the Jets were asking for, just like they apparently asked Chicago for Teuvo Teravainen at first. Flordia balked, Chicago said we will give you Dano instead. Jets took it. Crouse is not good.

Some thought that Pardy is on waivers because a team has interest in him as depth for their AHL team, in order to be on the playoffs for an AHL team, you need to be on the roster by tomorrow at 2 pm so if he clears today, seems likely, you might see a package deal involving burmi and pardy to someone with burmi being put on that teams main roster and pardy being sent to the minors since he wouldn't have to clear anymore. Pretty obvious the JETS are DONE with pardy, maurice called him a rec league player the other day and pardy went on a rant about how he feels he should have been playing more. Pardy is being shopped, this probably has something to do with it.

Some thoughts are that enstrom and stafford could be moved also but probably not until near or at the draft. Interesting to note that the Jets have scouts at the flames sens game tonight
