  1. Doubt Malkin waives for Edmonton. Plus Nikitin doesn't really help Pitt. It would have to be Schultz or someone else like that. Plus i think Pitt is so close to the cap that the cash coming back from trading Malkin would have to be equal or less than what Malkin is paid. Not sure RNH at 6 million and Nikitin at 4.5 million is worth it for them. I'm looking at Nashville and I see a need for a top line center and i see a ton of D men on Nashville, I think those 2 teams are a match.
  2. Wouldn't be opposed to guest coach with us this past season at training camp, Noel Prefontaine ,being named special teams coach.
  3. Personally, I think it's time to move on from the current core and transition to the younger one. Keep Wheeler and Little around since they are on friendly somewhat long term contracts, Think you need a few vets around. Give Wheeler the C. Transition tho to Scheif,Ehlers and the younger guys. Bring up and play Armia and Lipon, Maybe De Leo, who is having quite a good season with the Moose, Trade Buff Ladd,Toby even for picks (1st round 2016 picks) and prospects (almost ready or even ready prospects) preferably a LHD like Theodore or maybe Pouliot from Pitt. Go get Hamonic from the NYI, if it means you have to trade Myers plus Burmi, do it. Build around Wheeler,Little but more so Scheif,Ehlers,Lowry,Copp,Trouba,Hamonic.... I think after 5 years and 1 playoff appearance, it's pretty safe to say that the current veteran group just can't get it done, they will never be more than a bubble team with the current veteran leadership of ladd and buff, they show up when they want too... I'd still try to sign Ladd but i wouldn't give him 6.5 million a year, if he would settle for 6 x 6 i'd do it.. or even 7 x 5 i'd do it... but anything more, Nope. Trade him. Buff needs to go. Stuart? not sure, he's married to a true north employee but... he should probably either be benched or maybe transition to a coaching role or a 7th d man role. Time to move on. Pav = traded or bought out this summer. I'm not suggesting we tank for a top pick but... if we get the top pick in the draft or a top 3 pick... that helps too. Imagine Austin Mathews, Jacob Chychrun (LHD) or one of the other top picks on the team... throw in Roslovic who lots of people feel is just about NHL ready and Kyle Connor and you have a pretty good young group to build around.
  4. Rumor has it Benevides as DC, McDiarmind as Special Teams coach.
  5. Copp should be promoted to the third line, guy has some skill and basically is the reason the 4th line is as good as they are (they are pretty good, they just don't play enough). Put Copp with a guy with some scoring ability like Ehlers and perhaps that helps. ??,Copp,Ehlers <--- 3rd line. Maybe Lowry on the left side there since he and copp seem to have some chemistry. Bump Burmi and Thorburn to the 4th line. Make a decision on Ladd and Buff sooner rather than later. Offer Ladd your best offer, if he doesn't sign, trade him. Same with Buff, offer him your best and final offer, doesn't sign, Trade him.
  6. -9 in goals but how many empty netters have we allowed. Lots. Probably 9 at the very least. And if anyone thought we'd be contenders?? Lol. Your expectations were way too high. And that's not the jets fault.... that's your fault.
  7. Helle will play
  8. The gm just got there a couple years ago. The former gm was a problem
  9. But 10 of their 12 back to backs are by January. Every team plays lots in march
  10. Ladd had 6 minutes on the pp last night. Scheif had 3 minutes. That's a coaching problem
  11. Not sure he would be since he was draft eligible last year but paper work prevented it I believe hence supplemental draft
  12. Jets have had the third or 5th toughest schedule so far.
  13. Jets don't play till Tuesday. He or someone else will be called up b4 then. Benefits of having your ahl team in the same city
  14. Ehlers is 1 of maybe 4 guys actually producing chances this game. People are 2 hard on the jets and for that matter moose kids. The vets on both teams need to step up
  15. 12 shots for the jets after 2. Buff benched. Struggling big time
  16. Agreed but probably shouldn't lol
  17. Something to consider... this isn't a normal b2b game exactly, the hawks played last night also in Nashville, most b2b's so far the team we were playing didn't play the night before. Probably plays a role in who plays and who doesn't. Wouldn't be shocked to see Helle play. Hutch hasn't won in a long time now.
  18. I dunno. Riders have lots of issues, yeah they have done a good job with their off field issues, no doubt murphy and jones are an upgrade but... the content on the field isn't really that impressive, they are an old team who lack Canadian depth, you can fix their international problems via scouting and free agency but the Canadian issue? I don't know about that... I'm sure they will be better than they were last year but by how much? I'm not sure... I don't see them making the playoffs... i just think the Canadian content is lacking and... i mean, they have a qb issue too, is durant gonna be the guy? is he gonna stay healthy? he hurt himself the first game of the year this past season, I'm not sure if he's the guy there moving forward or not and if he isn't.. who is? Do they go after Trevor Harris? Is he really a huge upgrade? I'm not sure... they have a few problems at some key spots that I don't think can be really solved in one off-season.
  19. Arrest made in the 2014 murder of 15 year old Tina Fontaine, details to come at 130. Pretty big deal for sure.
  20. So... with the bombers having picks 9 and 10 or 8 and 9 i suppose, who should we be looking at? Gotta think DL and OL are 2 areas that we should be looking at. Curious also about the UBC kicker/punter... maybe not with those picks but could he be on our radar?
  21. First year pro players take a while to find themselves. The whole moose team isn't very good
  22. 17 shots against in the third for helle. Jets were awful defensively and have been all year. This is what happens when you have 3 offensively minded rhd men and only 1 real defensively minded LHD man.
  23. Lol. 1 of them. Toby isn't getting younger and Chiarot and Stuart are not good We have 1 legit LHD man and that's Toby who isn't getting any younger. We have 3 rhd men in myers trouba and buff. Trade buff for a LHD and 1st. Morrissey isn't ready yet. Probably needs another year with the moose
  24. The sun is free in lots of areas of the city. They literally have to give it away
  25. Lol hutch to start.... I'd be somewhat surprised actually. Is the idea to lose again??
