Goalie

Jets played 1 good period. That's the bottom line

I'd only trade buff for a very massive overpayment. I'm talking 1st round picks plus 2 A prospects. I'd love it if he signed tho and hope he does.

This team isn't tanking. The sad reality tho is they just aren't good enough.

Stafford might have scored but he had about 10 giveaways. Did Ladd play? Invisible again. This team just isn't good enough and the coaching is questionable at times. Ladd Lowry Burmi probably had more ice time than ESW. 4th line out with Stu and Chiarot in a 1 goal game. Just brutal.

I'm shopping everyone but helle trouba myers scheif wheeler Ehlers Perreault Lowry little copp. If someone makes me an offer I can't refuse... the rest including buff are all up for grabs. It's the smart thing to do. I think its time to transition to the next generation so to speak. Time to become the winnipeg Jets instead of being the Winnipeg Thrashers. I love buff but if someone offers me a 1st and a couple almost ready A prospects closer to scheif and Trouba age... I'm probably going to have to trade buff. When does this team become a legit playoff contender.... I dunno but I'd suspect it's not for a couple more years. Buff would be 33 34 ish... not sure if it's worth it to sign him long term when I'm not sure if in 3 or 4 years when we are ready to be legit contenders... how effective will buff be.

Pav still isn't cleared and I wouldn't be surprised if he never plays a game for the jets again.

Oops lol

Jericho is there to put guys over. He's giving back

Kings don't have a first round pick so they'd have to offer something significant. Dallas being in the same division. Have to be significant also. 1st which will be late... Honka probably and maybe Nichuskin who is rumored to being shopped.

Strombo is a fool and outside of Glenn Healey is the worst thing about the new HNIC

Yeah but that doesn't really seem likely. Trouba would be the odd man out I'm guessing

He needs minutes. Lodge that is and wasn't getting any with the moose. He's a first year pro. Probably won't ever be a Jet but could still end up being a good ahl player.

Let's pretend Trouba is being shopped assuming buff signs. Buff Myers is a great 1 2 RHD group. If a team like Edmonton wanted Trouba and they offered let's say RNH and their 1st round pick in 2016.. Top 5 for sure. I'd have a hard time turning it down. I think if Trouba is being shopped... an overpayment is a guarantee... would people do Trouba for RNH plus Edmonton 1st at the draft? This is all assuming buff is signed. Be hard to turn down.

Cuz spending to the cap is gonna make you win all of a sudden. Plus Lowry Scheif Ehlers Helle Trouba all still on ELC deals.... Armia also. That is the difference in cap... Copp 2 actually. Love it. Make the playoffs 1 year out of 5 and ppl think this year is the anomole... nope. This year is the reminder that we are what we are. This current core isn't good enough and never will be.

Perhaps off ice issues play a role but... Doubt it. He's not worth 6 7 million a year tho but 5 5.5 probably long term is fair.

I think most people don't like him cuz he comes across as being an arrogant smug whining little female dog.... He's doing his job. I don't mind him but I find him annoying but that doesn't mean that he's doing a bad job. Jets probably aren't here if not for Bettman. Ppl can be bitter and blame him for the original jets leaving but it wasn't his fault that NOBODY wanted to build a new arena or own the team here at that time

Saw a link to it on twitter just 5 minutes ago. Ya. That's why I said I'm not sure if I buy it.... seems and reads like big time speculation

Some...what I'm going to call speculation, is that if the jets sign buff, trouba is gone via trade. Just saying but if that's true... I love buff but.... I'm signing the 21 year old instead and moving buff This according to Friedman. Not sure I buy it tho.

In an Era where all pro sports have had record revenue.... but bettman really isn't that bad in the big picture. Must be doing his job if his bosses (owners including Chipman ) gave him a new extension

Minus 10 is fine but when you spend 2 weeks or so in plus 30... that's a 40 degree difference.

Pretty much.

Man. Plus 30 to minus 10 hurts but whatever lol. Never watched the game bug good for Scott. As for the suggestion to make the winning team or conference... give them 4 of 7 games in the final. Not gonna happen ever. Would be ridiculous if an 8th place eastern team had home advantage over a 1st place western team. Owners will never allow it. All star game means nothing... always has and always will. Guys aren't going to risk injuries mid season. All star hockey Is not even hockey really. It's a bunch of guys trying to not get hurt. Rightfully so. Imagine buff getting hurt... would be devestating in a game that means nothing and almost seems rigged. It is what it is. It's a showcase of basically rich guys trying to not get hurt. Couldn't imagine a player being injured in a game like this. No contact. No penalties. Not even much effort in reality. Only guys who try a little are the goalies. The rest are just there cuz they have to be. Honestly I think if they stopped doing the all star game and just have the teams 5 or 6 days off instead.... nobody would care that there was no all star game

Time for bed. Gotta go to the airport early tomorrow to catch a flight with my lady for 2 weeks in the sun. But. Petan was late for practice with Kostalek and was healthy scratched for a game because of it. Also. Probably don't want Petan or De Leo called up to play 4th line minutes. I'm guessing copp plays on the third line and Cormier and Lipon will be on the 4th. Honestly I'm not even convinced Cormier will dress tho. Ladd little wheeler Armia Perreault Ehlers Then mix and match the rest

I think the question should be would he have been drafted by the jets if trouba wasn't ??

Eklund rumor again. Goes against everything everyone else with actual sources have said. Isles want a young D man back not a guy making 6 million. PS: Ducky... what's the point. I'm done debating with you.
