iHeart Posted June 21, 2017 Report Posted June 21, 2017 would it be wrong if I compared the fans of the winnipeg jets facebook page with Reality Steve?

Mostly what's coming out so far are the trades pre-draft. I haven't heard any reports yet about what moves Vegas is making after the draft, which is what we would be interested in.

Goalie Posted June 21, 2017 Report Posted June 21, 2017 Jets are so tight lipped about things you had guys on the day of the draft last year thinking convinced puljujarvi was their pick or they were trading it. Heck even when they traded kane and bogo.. Nobody had a clue b4 hand. The Unknown Poster 1
Goalie Posted June 21, 2017 Report Posted June 21, 2017 And... Why do we need to make trades... We wanna upgrade our goaltending and there were reports jets talking to rangers about raanta but thats an after expansion draft thing. Also quite a few UFA goalies out there july 1st.

They were saying the same stuff. Theres a difference between me saying they might vs Sportsnet insiders saying they might

The Unknown Poster Posted June 21, 2017 Report Posted June 21, 2017 The insiders played it up big time even when they knew Laine was the guy. Even Lawless said "its Laine but...". Because its their job to have something to talk about. And it benefits everyone to create hype and suspense.
The Unknown Poster Posted June 21, 2017 Report Posted June 21, 2017 (edited) So of the rumours making the rounds: Cody Eakin selected by Vegas from Dallas David Perron selected by Vegas from St Louis Brendan Liepsec from Toronto Mark Methot selected (and possibly flipped) James Neal might be selected but Nashville were determined to convince Vegas otherwise.

Enstrom would also be cheaper to protect over Myers, so getting Enstrom to waive was important. Hopefully, it's not costing much. Dano becoming the pick with and a third rounder? The Unknown Poster 1
Goalie Posted June 21, 2017 Report Posted June 21, 2017 Wiebe suggesting Dano and a pick or forward like Petan.
The Unknown Poster Posted June 21, 2017 Report Posted June 21, 2017 Word is out! The 30 teams have been informed which player they are losing to Vegas. All are in the process of informing those players of their selection.Source: John Shannon

If I had any confidence in our ability to sign good veteran players I'd be okay with it, but the prospect of entering the season with Morrissey - Chiarot - Stuart on the left side scares the living daylights out of me.

No Karl?
Jimmy Pop Posted June 21, 2017 Report Posted June 21, 2017 I like Alzner, mostly 'cuz I traded him to Wpg in NHL14 and it's paid off. Seriously though, how much of an upgrade is he on Enstrom? And if you're only D acquisition is the guy replacing Toby, that's trouble too. D wasn't near good enough or deep enough.

bustamente Posted June 21, 2017 Report Posted June 21, 2017 I'm okay with Enstrom not being chosen last year was a real down year for him, we could use a rebound year from him and need him on the left side Goalie and Atomic 2
Jimmy Pop Posted June 21, 2017 Report Posted June 21, 2017 This still feels odd to me at face value. I can't be the only one seeing at least 3-5 better D than Toby who are unprotected and/or protected but rumoured to be traded to VGK, like Shea Theodore. ..almost makes you wonder, ahem, if Toby's value is a lot higher than many here think.

Jimmy Pop Posted June 21, 2017 Report Posted June 21, 2017 I guess what I hope most ISN'T happening is GMGM schooling Chevy...
