SpeedFlex27 Posted April 14, 2017 Report Share Posted April 14, 2017 Just watching the last few minutes of the Ducks-Flames game last night when Anaheim was 2 men short, first with a 5 on 3 & then on a 6 on 4... We never had goaltending like that all year. That's on our GM for that. Our goaltending sucks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They went with an unproven rookie & had no one behind him (other than Pavelic) as they found out Hutchinson was brutal. He had a decent stretch in the last few games of the year but hopefully he's not back next season. Debatable about Pavlec's real worth as a veteran. Chevy gambled & lost. He better fix the goaltending situation over the summer. Oh, forgot. It doesn't matter if he fixes it or not as he has a #jobforlife.

You've obviously spoken to it grow up lol You're a wrestling fan eh. You like Adam Cole? His catchphrase works here. Fleury wouldn't waive to come here. That's reality. Just cuz some old kook hack from Toronto says he was told if his sources are correct that the penguins maybe offered the Jets Fleury for a 2nd doesn't mean he's right besides now the Jets would be in Pittsburgh situation where u have to protect the old guy making to much money over the future. This was never happening and likely isn't even true. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Unknown Poster Posted April 15, 2017 Report Share Posted April 15, 2017 (edited) Old kook. Sorry. Missed you're appearance on tsn. Are you in high demand? You always insult people rather then express a reasonable opinion. Are you so insecure you can't just discuss? You have to try and tear down? Really it's getting old man. You have no idea the reality of any Pens/Jets talk. Mane my originally point was obviously some sarcasm about Fleury playing well. And extrapolating that had the jets got goaltending help on December they might be in the playoffs now. But being condescending is easier than having a mature discussion.

But if (big if) Pens were willing to trade him for a 2nd round pick and Fleury was willing to come here (as he said he would when asked) AND you lose him in expansion you basically look at it as making the payoffs for a 2nd pick (taking into account making playoffs is no guarantee ) so even we did lose him it was still worth it. But you've still got the asset. So you can either trade him or Helle and if you get anything equal to a 2nd round pick you've broken even. You can also make a deal with Vegas. Either way he's still an asset to do something with. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would you give up a 2nd right now if it means we don't lose anyone else in the expansion draft? bb1, The Unknown Poster and JCon 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Floyd Posted April 16, 2017 Report Share Posted April 16, 2017 So if Pittsburgh is going to convince Fleury to waive his NMC clause, why wouldn't they just trade him to LV or leave him exposed... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I doubt Fleury is interested in going to LV. If he was waiving his NMC, he would want to go to a place that has a chance at competing and where he would be protected. Jets have a chance at competing sometime this decade but would not have protected him. But I would be happy to trade give up a 2nd round pick to LV, instead of giving up a player.

Quite the compelling argument for a 32 year old goalie to sign with your franchise... Atomic 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sweep the leg Posted April 17, 2017 Report Share Posted April 17, 2017 Decent goaltending should have us in the playoff hunt next season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Decent goaltending would have got us in this year. Next year, who knows? We can't necessarily count on Scheifele putting up 80+ points, Laine putting up 35+ goals, Lowry scoring 15, Trouba having a career season, etc. Morrissey had a fantastic rookie season but will he regress as a sophomore? Wouldn't be the first time that happened. My point is that teams don't develop on a linear upward slope. We had an opportunity to be good this year, and blew it by totally bungling the goaltending situation. Let's hope the opportunity comes again.

sweep the leg Posted April 17, 2017 Report Share Posted April 17, 2017 They're good young players who are improving as they get older. It's not like we had bunch of older journeymen put up career seasons. None of the benchmarks that were set last season are unreasonable to meet again.

FrostyWinnipeg Posted April 17, 2017 Report Share Posted April 17, 2017 We need another goalie and 1/2 really good LHD. Goalie is a 2nd rounder pick. The D guys you will have to trade O for. Alzner is UFA but then Vanc likely to go after the local boy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Unknown Poster Posted April 17, 2017 Report Share Posted April 17, 2017 You can never know for sure but it's hard not to imagine Fleury coming here on December doesn't get the Jets in the playoffs. And then anything can happen. If you protect Fleury does Vegas take Helle over a forward? Would they take a pick to leave him? It's all speculation unless you're lucky enough to know Fleury personally and know the details.... Atomic 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
