Mike Posted August 31, 2016 Report Share Posted August 31, 2016 Local media scooped by local blogger who writes almost exclusively poor quality articles and was seen as a running joke ... Until he broke this story. (That's who Fox Sports quoted) Goalie and Atomic 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Unknown Poster Posted August 31, 2016 Report Share Posted August 31, 2016 Do they generally want a D with an A or does it not matter? I'd say Wheeler, Scheif and little or Myers. But if the decision comes down to management and players deciding all bets are off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Goalie Posted August 31, 2016 Report Share Posted August 31, 2016 Not to read to much in to this but Stripping Stuart of the A might signify an interesting change. Perhaps he is a pressbox option now. All great choices for sure. Wheeler, like Maurice said, EARNED IT. Buff and Scheif are great choices also as they are 2 guys who committed to winnipeg long term very recently.

Arnold_Palmer Posted August 31, 2016 Report Share Posted August 31, 2016 Classy move to announce it on Wheeelers birthday. Small things like this is what makes the Jets organization top notch. Goalie and JCon 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Leadership group is in good hands with these guys maybe Wheeler wants to be here long term, as for Stuart by taking the A away from him it probably signals less playing time, especially if Morrissey is ready to make the jump.

The Unknown Poster Posted August 31, 2016 Report Share Posted August 31, 2016 Yeah no reason Wheeler can't re-up again and be here another 6+ years as an aging veteran. Always thought Ladd would retire here. But hopefully Wheeler does. Goalie 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
