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! 

 

Two Jets on the list. Gennaro and Karlstrom. Seems the expectation is Jets will sign Gennaro.

Gennaro is looking like a pretty damn good prospect for a 7th-round pick.  He had a great year with the hitmen.

Yup here's a good story about him:

Has some offensive upside.  Could be a solid 3LW.  Couple years with the Moose and who knows.  He's 20, would the thought be he'd be signed and play for the Moose this season or can he go back to the Hitmen?

Well the Jets let Karlstrom go back home so that question was answered last year. Expect Gennaro to sign.

Can hardly wait for the new Adidas NHL Unis

Holy Hannah, big ouchy's for the Ducks...and possibly teams looking to acquire a D-man.

Any truth to the rumour going around twitter that's a Toby has agreed to waive his NMC?

Sure hope so.  I don't hate Toby but I honestly think Vegas wouldn't take him so this would be the best case scenario.

I'd go to Vegas and offer them something to *not* take Toby.  Then go to Toby and offer him a 2-3 year extension to waive.

Seems like a little much.  I'd just try to strongly persuade Toby to waive and then count on Vegas not taking him.

we wish you a merry Jetsmas, We wish you a Merry Jetsmas, we wish you a merry Jetsmas and pray for playoffs next year

Ideally yes.  Problem is, if you're Toby, there is not a 100% guarantee Vegas wont pick you.  Knowing the Jets, I cant see them framing a discussion as "we dont want you".   But offering him an extension might entice him. 

As per TSN, Golden Knights close to agreement for van Riemsdyk.

Are they allowed to sign free agents already?

Now I get it 

The Vegas Golden Knights and Chicago Blackhawks could be working out a deal ahead of the expansion draft in June.

TSN Senior Hockey Reporter Frank Seravalli reports the Blackhawks could allow the Golden Knights to select Trevor van Riemsdyk in the expansion draft, on the condition Vegas also takes forward Marcus Kruger in a trade.

They've technically been able to do so since the Mar. 1st trade deadline, IIRC. Their first actual player signing was on Mar. 6th: https://www.reviewjournal.com/sports/golden-knights-nhl/golden-knights-make-first-ever-player-transaction/

Quote

The Golden Knights made history Monday with their first-ever player transaction when they signed Duke, a junior free agent center, to a three-year entry level contract.

When does he sue his agent and lose?

I never said it was a bad thing, I rather enjoyed watching it, I can still remember the theme music

 

well it's june now, this month either way we're getting a new player that probably won't be ready til the season after the upcoming one, and we are one month away from gaining and losing players
