And so it begins...

Dumba would work.  What’s his story?  Minnesota trade him?  
 

I do like Dillon form San Jose but he has no term.  Be a good target in free agency. Same with hamonic  

I like either Dumba or GhostBear......if they could find a way.

Manson would be my pick. Least he over 6' .

If They somehow add combo of a dumba or Manson or Dillon, the team is a lot different next season. 

Now the elephant in the room...who are we trading?

Roslo. Connor. (No D ability) 

For Dillon? A 3rd? 

Sign Hamonic off season or see If Calgary would do Perreault. Sami Vatanen would be a nice pickup also. Ghost would be nice. A left side of Morrissey Ghost Samberg be strong but prob blocks Heinola. I think organizational wise, RHD are needed more.

Why not trade Conner, I'm sure his 30 goals per year will be super easy to replace. Natural goal scorers are not important at all in today's NHL

Connor goes nowhere. I'd trade Laine before I'd trade him, and I don't wanna trade Laine. Cripes.

And his dad Dave aka Charlie played for us in the 1990's...

well at least I'll know how to pronounce his name in the event that we do acquire him

Gottabehere would be a nice pick up....failing that ...write the rest of the year off....get something in the draft and sign Hamonic in the off season.....Chevy is on the clock

 

aka....Connor or Laine will not be leaving anytime soon

Why would philly trade a D

Roslovic maybe. Connor...? **** no. His supposed lack of defensive ability wouldn't justify such a move, either. The kid's here to provide offense, and he does exactly that at a very proficient level.

As for the blue line, I'm skeptical management makes any moves unless the team somehow goes on a tear this month. I think it's next season territory already, and I fully expect the Jets to take look at Hamonic on July 1st.

Ghost is on all of the lists for trade bait. He hasn't been very good this year and they've got younger guys that they want to take over.

I really felt/hoped he would retire a Jet. All signs say not. Was my #1 favorite current Jet, gave us a unique identity.

Oh well. Nothing lasts forever. He provided us with hours and hours of entertainment not to mention many great meme's.

Thank you, it was a great ride. All the best to DB and his family.

Now lets free up that cash, strengthen our team and make available #33 to any Jet who wants it.

Well he still could retire a JET if he stays retired. Where else to go? Minnesota? Are they not old enough?

Yup could do but if he does wouldn’t feel like a real ‘I’m retiring as a Winnipeg Jet’.

all of a sudden we have a good reason for him to retire as a jet

I don't know what would hurt more, seeing him in a different jersey and doing his bashing, or seeing someone else wear 33

✔ @BrianMunzTSN

Paul Maurice says @natebeaulieu will play for @NHLJets tomorrow night against @StLouisBlues. Would not confirm who comes out of the line up

 

 

It better be Bitetto.

Going down the route of contract termination versus a trade would suggest DB doesn't want to play anymore?

Or does it suggest DB wants full control over his future whether it be playing with another team or not playing at all?

It raises questions, same as retirement vs termination.  I think its part of the negotiated settlement, to walk away.  Buff might get some money this year out of it.  Its taking some time so it must be complicated (ie. lawyers going over the fine details).  I think he has to actually do rehab to be considered for LTIR which he seemingly isnt doing.  Leaves open the potential to sign somewhere else.  He's practically untradeable at this point.
