Ducky

Connor-Lowry-Stafford ... lucky Connor... I can't see Armia or Burmi in the pressbox and both have to clear waivers and Dano doesn't. Lemieux Petan Dano for the Moose? I would like it if Burmi, Staf, Stuart, Thorbs Pavs and Peluso all didn't start the year in a Jets' uni. LIttle Wheeler Laine Scheif Perrault Ehlers Connor Lowry Copp Dano Lemieux and Armia would all start. Laine Little Wheeler Connor Scheif Ehlers Lemieux Perreault Armia Copp Lowry Dano Mathias in pressbox. Trouba Buff Enstrom Postma Morrissey Myers Chiarot Strait in pressbox. 1stPK...Armia Copp Trouba Enstrom 2ndPK...Lowry Little Buff Myers 1stPP...Buff Perreault Scheif Ehlers Laine 2ndPP...Trouba Wheeler Little Armia Connor Helle 55 games / Hutch 27 games It would be nice to get a young LHD but with Trouba on the left side, it isn't a MUST. Roslovic is developing nicely and should be a 2nd/3rd C for us in a couple of years. Sure hopes he goes to the Knights. I know we aren't going to trade Staf before the TD but it would be nice if we did. We aren't winning the cup this year anyway.

I remember Armia making a good play in about his 3rd game or so and Maurice walking up and bending over his shoulder and saying something to him. When Maurice was walking away, Armia had a mile wide smile and was saying "wow".

A legit 2LHD...he has his faults but he has a lot of good points too. Best passing D man and smartest D man we have. He scores less points now because of the system he plays in now compared to the one he played in back then. Plus, he sees way less time on the PP.

I think MacKinnon continues his upward progression but what is it going to cost to re-sign him at 27? Scheif at 31 might take a 2 or 3 year deal to finish off his career here. Fingers full of rings and name on the cup so much the engraver doesn't even have to look it up to spell it...

nope nope

It looks like the head coach will have some players for his team this year. Tanev Lemieux? Petan? De Leo Copp? Comrie Morrissey Peluso Howden Strait Dano? Melchiori Kichton Lipon Kosmo Nogier Kostalek Olsen ... anyone I miss? Phillips?

He will be an UFA at 27 and Scheif at 31. Mac.........153 points in 218 games 63, 38 and 52. Scheif......145 points in 227 games 34, 49 and 61. Both very good players. I think 31-32 is the perfect age to have a contract run out if you are the organization and 26-27 if you are a player. My opinion.

Scheifele's deal is better than MacKinnon's deal and plus it is a year longer. Scheif is 31 when his is over and Mackinnon will only be 27.

I am bored so, in no order whatsoever... Laine-Scheif-Wheeler Ehlers-Little-Armia Connor-Perrault-Dano Matthias-Lowry-Staf Trouba Buff Enstrom Hamonic (haven't given up) Morrissey Myers Helle Comrie

We could actually use a quality 3rd pairing RHD. 1st or 2nd pairing LHD goes without saying.

Ceci is a right hand shot and what about the expansion draft? I'd trade Myers and Petan for Fowler and a 1st rounder though.

I am with Goalie though, Lowry and Staf in a package plus something of more value (1st rounder?) for a 2nd pairing LHD but the expansion draft throws such a wrench into plans.

Lowry 2 years for 1.4m per. Armia 1.2m per for 2 years.

I would make that trade...

I hope Burmistrov is involved in that trade too. Lowry not being on the team wouldn't be a huge loss. Ditto a lot of players. You think the Jets start 3 rookies up front? Enstrom Trouba Morrissey Buff Chiarot Myers would be nice...

In four or five years when the cap is 78-80 million a year, everyone will be wondering how we got him so cheap. I can't see Trouba signing until just before TC and Lowry and Armia getting a bit more (not much) than Goalie quoted above. What a great time to be a Jet fan. Chevy's real cap test will come around 2018-2019 and 2019-2020 when some of the young stars like Ehlers, Connor, Laine, Petan, Morrissey, and Comrie become RFAs and Wheeler, Little and Myers are UFAs. Next off-season doesn't show any really big names coming up for renewal outside of Helle. Interesting times ahead. TUP, I listened to that interview. What a great individual. He is way up in Bumfart, Northern Ontario with his strength coach for a golf tourney to raise money for charity. Spoke about it being an honor and how he knows he has to continue to keep on getting better every year.

if is the 20th highest paid Center in the league we got a real bargain.

I think the captain should go to wheeler but he should definitely get the a

is he our new captain?

A great move by Chevy. He's been busy the last couple of days. This deal will look like a real steal in three or four years.

Hamhuis is steady...steady in his decline. He peaked a couple years ago. Hamhuis is going downhill, he isn't getting any better. 7.5m for two years I think? No thanks.

I'd rather see both Dano and Armia playing with more experience. To all the Chevy haters out there, our cupboards were bare and now they runneth over.

another stab at it for the forwards... Laine - Little - Wheeler Connor -Scheifele - Ehlers Perreault - Petan - Armia Matthias - Lowry - Dano no Staf no Burmi no Thorburn no Peluso no Copp

Good signing for the going rate. Does well on the farm but will never make the Jets.
