The Expansion Draft

Do we go 8-1 or 7-3-1?

I would think that Scheif, Wheeler and Little are locks to be protected and we have to protect Enstrom and Buff because of their NMCs.

Opinions will change as the year goes on and some players play better/worse and some might be traded but right now they would go 8-1.

Wheeler

Scheif

Little

Trouba

Enstrom

Buff

Myers

Helle for a goalie but who is the 8th player we shold protect?

MP? Lowry? Armia? Dano? Copp?

I say send them a draft pick so they take Copp. A 3rd rounder or so.

    Toby doing that when he has zero reason to do so (other then some odd desire to go to Vegas) is a major character move.

    Enstrom is worth more than Dano, and it's really not even close.  Another case of Winnipegitis, where we over or under value a player because they are in our market and we watch them so closely.

Rumors are 13 for 24. Columbus pick. We move down. Get brannstrom hague timmins vaakainen. Possible goalie involved also

I got a hunch Korpisalo is coming our way somehow

I think its pickard and 24 for 13 and maybe a 3rd or 2018 pick 

Has to be involving something we haven't seen yet which is why they said later. 

What a shocker. Doesn't hurt us losing Thorbs but character guy that many thought would get a job with the organization after his career.

Well, he can still get a job with the Jets after his career.  As long as he's not 'anchoring' our 4th line anymore.

I've a feeling we have still traded someone. Maybe.

Thorbs is a UFA.  He was going somewhere else if anyone would sign him next year anyway.  No guarantee Vegas even signs him.

Don't forget Thorburn is UFA he can still resign with the Jets :P

As...?

Oh I was kind of hoping we'd get whoever LV chooses as their backup goalie

Fans of the Winnipeg Jets sez:

No confirmation likely for a day or 2 put it appears that the Jets flipped 1st round picks with LV as well as a lower draft pick in the future to select Thorburn and leave the Jets 2017-18 roster intact.

 
 
 

Flip our 1st for Columbus 1st

You are correct sir 

So last year we packaged picks to select Stanley...  this year we packaged picks to select... Enstrom.

Yikes.

are you kidding me? now we're picking 24th? what kind of deal is that?

And to protect Dano.

Guess Chevy will say theres not much difference between old pick and new one but im still holding out for one more thing.
