2015 NHL Free Agency

If they don't make any other big signings they are going to be one of the lower cap teams at around $55 - $58M.

Floor is $51M

If they re-up both Ladd and buff then you can $15m or so to that next year. Might be saving space.

Reupping both is likely only a net increase of 7. But I agree they are keeping space open to sign existing players.

@mremis: "Grant Clitsome is still a question mark from an injury standpoint" - #NHLJets GM Cheveldayoff

@CJOBSports: #NHLJets GM Kevin Cheveldayoff won't give details but says their offer to Frolik was fair & competitive

Moose sign four:

The Jets/Moose signed four players today to American Hockey League contracts, and three of them were Jets/Atlanta Thrashers draft picks.

On deals are defencemen Peter Stoykewych (2010), Aaron Harstad (2011) and Brennan Serville (2011). They also signed goalie Jussi Olkinuora, whom they had previously signed as a free agent in the spring of 2013.

Olkinuora didn’t receive an NHL qualifying offer from the Jets last earlier this week, making him a free agent.

He has played two seasons in the system, with both the ECHL’s Ontario Reign and the AHL’s St. John’s IceCaps.

Harstad, now 23, played for Colorado College in NCAA hockey for the last four seasons. He joined the IceCaps for the end of last regular season for a look.

Serville, 22, was a defensive defenceman for the University of Michigan, scoring just one goal in his four seasons there. He was the teammate of Jets defenceman Jacob Trouba for one of those years.

Stoykewych, also 22, played four years at Colorado College. The Winnipeg native had six goals and 34 points over his career there.

@garylawless: Cheveldayoff stopped himself on 1 answer about Frolik, said offer was competitive and then, "in many ways..." cut himself off. #bn #nhljets

Hmmmm in many ways better?

 

Yeah was listening to the press conference and thats what it sounded like he was about to say.  Might have been higher AAV with less term.
