time for a new thread for a new season that begins today. Canada Day. Free Agent Frenzy. 

Will the Jets trade Trouba?  Will they resign Scheif to an 8 year deal?  

Will Boston, as heavily rumoured, offer sheet Trouba?  What about the rumours of the Jets in a three way deal with Edmonton and Avs?

Stay tuned!

Lawless giving more credence to the idea the Jets would ask Toby to waive his NMC to be exposed to Vegas (who would likely not take him).  It would be nice if they could make a trade deal.  If Im Toby Im more interested in waiving my NMC to go to, say, Pens right now, then to be left exposed to Vegas.  Lawless also saying Jets wont take back picks or prospects.  Meh, if a team will give you something for Toby right now, I'd do the deal and use those non-player assets for other deals.

If Enstrom is willing to waive his NMC so the Jets can go 7-3-1 he's doing it as a favour to the Jets, so the chances that this translates to Enstrom traded if he waives it does not increase at all.

Especially if he does it after the trade deadline.

It's an off day so we wont know if anyone missin from practice.

They could be pulling a Bourque and sending him to contender if they get him to waive NMC now.

This is exactly my thought.  Make a deal with Pens today.

I thought Jets practiced at noon...

If they dont trade him for anything they are stupid.  Even if the offer is a $50 Montana's gift card and a hearty pat on the back.  ANYTHING is better than keeping him.

Wonder if Lowry could get us Hjalmarsson or TVR...  Chicago is in a real bind for exp draft

If I'm reading this right, Hjalmarsson has a no move?

Id be very surprised if Jets traded Lowry but if they feel they cant protect him from Vegas and will lose him for nothing, then its something they'd have to consider.

Yep. Modified - provides a list of 10 teams he can be traded to.

Wanna make a bet the Jets are NOT on that list?

He also only has one year left on his deal and is 30 years old this summer.  Not the Jets' usual target.

Two years, and you're right.

Why would we take him? We might lose him on the expansion draft.

Anything the Jets might want to do is better left til after expansion draft.  They need to make some moves.  Today should be about cutting the dead weight for anything offered.  Only other deals should involve things that help them with expansion, such as moving Toby or trading someone they think they'd lose (like Lowry, I guess).

Hjalmarsson would be the perfect D pairing for Buff...  once you have him, losing Myers is not such a big deal.

But I really don't see Chevy trading Lowry.

More likely, we trade Stafford for a 4th because Chicago has a soft spot for Chevy.

Chevy loves to help CHI win the cup so this would not surprise me.

Nice going Jets.

On the Drew Stafford watch, he's out on the ice for NHLJets workout. Guess there is a work out today at least optional.
