I think he's right up our alley but someone will pay him too much. Jets might be done. With Stafford, Burni they have their top nine set I think. Unless they have a trade in mind
@CJOBSports: Updated #NHLJets Burmistrov Story with contract terms http://t.co/KNvZ79VmFohttp://t.co/EmX5yO6Tx9
The Jets told 680 CJOB they would not be releasing the terms of Burmistrov’s two-year deal.
Contradictory.
Ladd-Little-Stafford
Perrault-Scheif-Wheeler
Ehlers-Lowry-Burmi (or reverse the wings)
Thorbs-Copp-Armia (this is probably wrong...Armia is more a Skill guy I think, will probably season with the moose)
@SiriusXMNHL: Bob McKenzie reporting that Ruslan Fedotenko has signed with Minnesota on a 2-way deal #wild #NHL #offseason #FreeAgency
That's interesting
@CJOBSports: #NHLJets Adam Pardy " I didn't want to go to another team. Never really thought about going, #1 priority was to stay here"
@DarrenDreger: Term and fit still being discussed by Matt Beleskey, CAA Sports and the 4 key interested teams.
@DarrenDreger: Joel Ward has 1 offer on the table and is waiting for two others.
@DarrenDreger: Jets sign Burmistrov to help team...not trade bait at this time.
@WiebeSunSports: Don't be surprised if #NHLJets consider F Andrew Desjardins an option. Just won Stanley Cup with #Blackhawks long-time member of #SJSharks
@RobRossi_Trib: Scuderi and Kunitz had #leafs on list of teams to which they could not be traded
But but but I thought Everyone wants to play for a big market
@garylawless: and now Alex Burmistrov is back with #nhljets on a two-year deal #bn
@garylawless: so #nhljets not releasing aav on Burmi deal. why? not because they over-paid. is it a sign and trade? or did they drive a real hard bargain?
@garylawless: Frolik was a 4 and 4 guy for me. interesting #nhljets didn't sign him at $4.3. have to wonder if market broke down a bit. 5 and 5 was word
@NHLFlames: "I’m really excited about it. Calgary had a great year last year & they got a great young group of guys." - Frolik on signing w/ Calgary
@NHLFlames: "I know the city is pretty good, too. I have a family now so it mattered too in that ... I’m really happy to be a Calgary Flame." - Frolik
Jets wouldn't go to $4.3 mill for Frolik...????
Calgary probably matched Winnipeg's offer. All of a sudden re-signing Tlusty not look so bad, better be min wage tho.
Rather secure Burni to be honest. But Tlusty is a good player for bottom six
Better opportunity in Calgry? He's pretty much squeezed out of the top six here. Plus if they want a 3rd line winger might be comparing a much cheaper Burni to Frolik
Guess jets didn't want to commit for five years. I'll assume jets wanted 2-3 years and Frolik wanted North of $5m for less term. Frolik does a lot of good things. But jets aren't going to pay a 3rd line player top line money. And I can never be disappointed when they make that decision.
