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! 

Don't know where this Fleury hates Winnipeg talk comes from.

well this is kind of depressing

It isn't that he doesn't like Winnipeg. It is that most players don't put non playoff teams on their trade list unless there is some other connection or appeal to that city. 

so I assume Hellabuyck is starting tomorrow

There are no assumptions with this team.

Where did you get that from my post. I'd be very surprised if he waived to come here.  He wants to win. Look at our team d. Look at our team goalie stats. Why would he be excited about that?

on the other hand of teams willing to take his contract Winnipeg might be among the most promising. So you never know. 

If this is true I'm surprised. Yes they'd still have to deal with Vegas but if in December some hockey wizard said I'll trade you the best shot at making the playoffs for a 2nd round pick, is that worth it?

and you'd still have the asset to play with before Vegas. Fleury here in December could very well have been the catalyst to the Jets making the playoffs. Then again Fleury and a decent D man would have been better. 

He did say Myers is close and might play for the worlds.

Not your post but a bunch of peeps saying Winnipeg not on his trade destination. That info is rarely leaked.

It's a likely prediction. I mean sure maybe he likes Winnipeg for some reason. But most people, especially rich people, if you have them 30 cities to choose from, Winnipeg won't be the one they choose to live and work. 

 

Tampa beat Hans. Leafs still control their own fate but it's interesting now

He said rich.

But you have to figure some guys want to go back home or to their own country.

Make that deal.

Wouldn't Vegas just claim him then?

well that's that all the playoff spots are filled, we have 5 Canadian teams in playoff contention

Two ways of looking at it. If Chevy realizes in December that jets are playing poor goaltending and D and Fleury can make what needed to be a fairly small improvement to get us into the playoffs, then consider it as a 2nd round pick in exchange for playoffs. 

Secondly you'd still have the asset so if you want to trade Fleury or Helle or make a deal with Vegas to skip them so be it.

This club even with Fleury did not seem like a play off caliber team.   Any other season I'd be upset but for this season it makes sense to pass on that trade.    Now if for some reason he's available after the expansion draft for that same price then I'd do it in a heart beat. 

38 games. 909 save percentage 3.02 GAA 

56 games 907. 2.89 

Fleury vs Helle 

BTW Helle is the one who played 56 Games

So now we can stop pretending fleury is the answer 

Give me bishop 3 years or Darling or really anyone other than Fleury. He's not good. He plays on a better team than the Jets also and has worse GAA than Helle and only a tiny tiny bit better save percentage 

Helle probably gets 1.5 to 2 million a year this off season 

Fleury makes over 5 

2nd round pick? Maybe a 4th instead

Jets missed by 7 points.  So does Fleury get them 3 more wins and one more OT?  Probably.

Meh.  Fleury is a good goalie.  Would probably have made the playoffs with him, Stats aside.  

Id go for Darling first but I wouldn't be upset at Fleury.  I would have made that trade.

Jets currently 6th in goals for. Only team in the top 10 in goals for to not make playoffs.

Whatever team faces the leafs is my new favourite team. I hate Toronto. 

 

well it sounds like Trouba wants to come back but why do the agents have to make all the decisions?
