First camp in a long time that it seems like they cut some guys and bring more in. I like it.

They did say blockbuster but who knows if anything happens. Mackinnon for Trouba is blockbuster. Could be trouba 22 for Duchene and 10. But Then Scheif Little Duchene Lowry seems like overkill. Trouba Little for Mackinnon? ?

Yup. Wwe approved it. Rumors are so they can use Rousey at next year's mania

Try Duchene or Mackinnon. Of anyone read Mckenzies piece it said think Jones RyJo type of deal.

Trouba is better than maatta tho and healthier. Rielly contract is comparable.

Jets won't be after forwards. They could be after a guy like Perreault for example. A team had to dump him due to salary issues. Bartkowski and Schlemko aren't really upgrades. But a team who are tight to the cap and needing to move a LHD for example might be the jets target

Sounds like it might be Achilles for Richardson according to Penton on twitter.

Basically it's just a guess. He's got lots of guys possibly being traded. Trade bait 2016. I wouldn't be surprised but I wouldn't guarantee that they trade him either. It all comes down to how much he wants. If it's ridiculous yup traded. If not..maybe he stays

Opening up Portage and Main debate
I would agree with FrostyWinnipeg that when cuz it's a when not if but when they take down the world war 2 style bunkers.... an overhead circular type of walkway would be very nice. Let's just stop pretending that traffic is an issue here. It's bigger in places like new York LA Calgary Edmonton for that matter and they don't have issues with traffic and people. I hate the argument about traffic. It's winnipeg not some city with over 1 million people. Time to tear down those walls Mr Bowman

I'm gonna make a bold prediction here. Leafs take Laine first. Jets get the franchise Center Matthews 2nd. Matthews Scheif for 8 9 10 years is solid. Jets then trade Jacob Trouba to Edmonton for the 4th overall plus and with the 4th overall pick select. ... yup gonna say it..From the London Knights Matthew Tkachuk. Bold but.... wouldn't surprise me at this point with the trouba rumors and Toronto being coy about who they are picking and Matthews quote today saying he will be happy to be picked by any team. As opposed to Laine and his I want to go first overall stuff. Myers isn't a 1 rhd because Buff is but like it or not Myers is probably better than trouba and there are no off ice concerns with Myers. Trouba? I think I might be guilty of over rating him. I think his off ice issues and I'm not talking about things that some people might think I am but I'm talking about his commitment to the game off the ice and the fact that it sounds like he really does want huge money long term means he's more than likely traded. I'll say this .... I think at this point.... Trouba is more likely to be traded than myers is. Jets have no problem paying marke value for guys. I think they won't overpay tho and if trouba wants more than the 6 years 30 million Rielly got in Toronto.... adios pretty much. Rielly is better

We don't need Simmonds. Lindholm isn't available. Ducks won't trade him. That's why. Lack of organizational depth on the LHD side is a reason to trade an rhd for an LHD. Lindholm isn't really realistic
-

The fact that he's 30 and probably wants 5 or 6 years at big money. Ladds a 3rd line winger on the jets in 2 years. Is that worth 6 million. Nope

Kypreos has a history of being dead wrong. But I could see Malkin moving on from Pitt. They got some cap issues there and moving malkin does make sense but I'll believe it when I see it

I'd be somewhat surprised if muller ended up here. I'd be happy but I'd be surprised

But then you'd have to protect buff Toby Trouba and Lindholm. Bottom line here. We will be protecting 4 d men regardless. Anaheim won't be trading Hampus. If you are gonna insist on trading myers ... perhaps aim for a LHD on an ELC. Sanheim in Philly Myers plus 22 for Sanheim and 18. Done and Done lol.

NO. Lebrun was saying they might be exempt all together. Meaning you don't need to protect them. It's all being negotiated still. It's 1 of 2 options 1. NMC are exempt completely meaning you don't need to protect those guys, they are basically ineligible to be picked or 2. You have to protect them. In which case, Oh well, I'll protect my top 4 d man every day of the week over a bottom 6 forward.

Let's see, expose or trade a top 4 d man or expose an extra bottom 6 forward? Tough Call there for sure. It's obvious actually. You protect Myers if you need 2 and you expose one of your bottom 6 guys Guys exempt on the Jets Comrie,Morrissey,Petan,De Leo,Connor, pick 2, Ehlers, <--- those guys don't need to be protected. They are all exempt Need Protecting - Myers,Buff,Toby,Trouba,Wheeler,Little,Scheif,Lowry(maybe),Perreault (maybe, he's UFA at the end of the year, not sure why you'd protect him if he doesn't have a new contract in place), Goalie = Helle. The Jets won't be losing much in this expansion draft, not much at all, It's one player, one player from the bottom 6 more than likely You'd rather trade Myers and keep a bottom 6 forward over a top 4 d man? That's crazy talk. How will the Jets survive with losing 1 of Stafford,Burmi,Thorburn,Copp,Dano,Armia, Stuart,Chiarot,Postma, Pavelec. OMG we are screwed!!
