He ain’t good. But he’s 25 so maybe flanerty can work some magic. No wait, send him to wherever Helle went last season!

We will see. This could be an AHL signing. What ppl need to remember here is 1. Cap issues are legit 2 . backups are getting big money today 3. Trades can and likely will happen

Or it’s just a sign of confidence in Helle but it doesn’t create a scenario where you play your back up 20 games. If it’s for the AHL, I don’t know... unless they intent to keep Comrie up and this is for the moose

it could also speak to the jets signing the absolutely cheapest goalie they could because some big RFA signings are coming. 

Trouba!

Interesting signing. Don't really hate it.

Okay, I admit I'm not a hockey expert like some of you guys here. Football is my game & hockey is more of a sidetrack for me but I do love the Jets. That's why I don't engage in much discussion here. So then, someone please explain to me.... According to Cap Geek, before Stasny left we had $28 million in cap space.  Only the NY Islanders were lower at $32 million. All in US $$ numbers. Now Stasny is gone. Just how are we up against the cap even if we have some UFA's like Trouba to sign? The salary cap is set at $79 million US next season. How are we up against the cap exactly??? 

Trouba, Morrissey, Hellebyuck this summer. Laine, Connor and possibly Wheeler next year.  

That money is easily gone.

With Stasny gone, that number must be up to $32 million now. 

There you go...

okay now this sounds promising

Yes he is that bad. 

 

I'll take Trouba longterm over giving up other guys.   Tavares is a huge add... doesn't help their defense though.

High ceiling? Okay then, I'm no goalie expert but he seemed to suck as an oiler but hey hope he's awesome for us.

Toronto is at 50.46 million for next season and that is before they have to pay Nylander, Marner, Matthews, Kapanen, Gardiner and a few other D-Men and a back up goalie.If Matthews gets say 11 and Nylander and Marner get say 7 a piece, that's basically no cap room and still a ton of holes on D.

In case anyone is wondering the TSN homepage has 7 Tavares stories, its all about the Leafs and only the Leafs.

You mean there are other teams? The Leafs aren't on a 51 year cup drought?
