Ducky Posted February 23, 2016 Report Share Posted February 23, 2016 Laine will go 2nd. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Goalie Posted February 23, 2016 Report Share Posted February 23, 2016 (edited) Depending on who picks first... Laine could go 1st. I get that you are very high on Matthews... a guy you've seen play? Once maybe twice right but what Laine is doing in a better league at the same age... altho younger since Matthews has a late birthday is pretty Damn impressive. Matthews is a good player but at the same time Laine is also. There is no guarantee that Matthews goes first.

Ducky Posted February 23, 2016 Report Share Posted February 23, 2016 Matthews will be a 1C....Laine will be a 1LW. We need the 1C. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Goalie Posted February 23, 2016 Report Share Posted February 23, 2016 No. We actually need the 1 LHD. But ok. So we are winning the draft lottery now? Cool. Pointless to talk about the draft right now until draft order is determined Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sweep the leg Posted February 23, 2016 Report Share Posted February 23, 2016 It seems like there's a big drop from the top 4 guys to everybody else. I wouldn't be too concerned about trying to move up if we get one of those picks, but I'd certainly entertain moving a dman along with our pick to get up to #1 if we don't.

Ducky Posted February 23, 2016 Report Share Posted February 23, 2016 We have a 1RHD so a 1LHD isn't as necessary. It would be nice to get a 2LHD but Trouba was filling that position until recently. We could also use a 3rd RHD if Postma isn't one. We need a 1C. Who is 4? Tkachuk? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Goalie Posted February 23, 2016 Report Share Posted February 23, 2016 I think Chychrun could be. I also like Jake Bean from Calgary Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ducky Posted February 23, 2016 Report Share Posted February 23, 2016 If the Jets pick lower than 3rd and Chychrun is available, I would take him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think we should trade Trouba but this is a very interesting proposal. No one is trading away the #1 overall. Heck EDM would trade Hall/N-H to get Matthews. 50 minutes ago, Ducky said: We have a 1RHD so a 1LHD isn't as necessary.

Jacob Chychrun might go higher depending on who needs a d-man more. The LHDman Chychrun could go as high as 3 in my books.

Jpan85 Posted February 23, 2016 Report Share Posted February 23, 2016 Not a draft pick but really hope the Jets are able to pick up Winnipeger Adam Brooks after his season is over with the Regina Pats the 19 year old went undrafted last year. Has been on a unbelievable tear the second half of the season now leads the league in points with 90+. Gritty max energy forward would be good depth for organization.

Goalie Posted February 24, 2016 Report Share Posted February 24, 2016 Can't go wrong with either Finn. Laine is more of a goal scorer. Pulu is more of a set up man. Actually Pulu gets compared to wheeler quite a bit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FrostyWinnipeg Posted February 24, 2016 Report Share Posted February 24, 2016 Goalie Ed Belfour's Olympic gold auctioned off for $34,777 Ed Belfour's decision to trade his Olympic gold medal to go into the distilling business with his son has paid off. The medal the Hockey Hall of Fame goalie won at the 2002 Salt Lake City Games was auctioned off for $34,777 on Tuesday, according to the final bid listed by Classic Auctions. Overall, the 66 items of hockey memorabilia Belfour put up for sale sold for nearly $179,000. Last week, Belfour said he was selling part of his collection to join son, Dayn, and establish Belfour Distilleries. The business is to be based in Texas and focus on distilling bourbons and whiskeys. A mask Belfour wore from 1992-94 with Chicago sold for $15,307. Another mask he wore with Dallas in winning the 1999 Stanley Cup title sold for $7,853. You'd think he'd have the cash straight up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm getting a chuckle out of Dayn being the head of operations behind this whole project. I was doing colour for the Winkler Flyers broadcasts back when Dayn was playing and that kid was.....off. All goalies are a little different, to be sure, but that kid.....he was nuttier than most. Very curious how that whole distillery thing goes for them....best of luck, anyhow.
