iHeart Posted July 5, 2017 Report Posted July 5, 2017 god I hope at least we'll have made it to round 2 of the playoffs by then, no better yet at least winning a playoff game
Jimmy Pop Posted July 5, 2017 Report Posted July 5, 2017 Sounds like we're stilling looking for FW help. Anyone got a fresh list of FA's available?

I'd prefer to take it at face value. He is under no obligation to say anything. I'd prefer to believe he isnt just lying. Sometimes players choose the best fit, regardless of money. Sometimes they have multiple offers with similar money and it comes down to fit, best chance to win, team mates etc. Either way, he specifically singled our two of our leaders as reasons that positively influenced his decision to come here. Oh please...you take yourself way too seriously . Chill out a little.?

Floyd Posted July 6, 2017 Report Posted July 6, 2017 Only guys left that I'd look at would be Dwight King, Teddy Purcell and maybe Jagr.

JCon Posted July 6, 2017 Report Posted July 6, 2017 33 minutes ago, Atomic said: Not surprising. He will get a 2 year deal between 2 and 3 million per season. Up to Jets to decide the years, 1 or 2 years. I wonder if they'll take 2 knowing that he's going in as the 2 (or 1b) goalie and may not get much of chance as the 1 (or 1a) goalie, hurting his negotiations next year?
Rich Posted July 6, 2017 Author Report Posted July 6, 2017 No guarantee he is going to arbitration, filing is just part of the process. Chances are they will work something out before it gets there. Jimmy Pop, Goalie and blue_gold_84 3
bustamente Posted July 6, 2017 Report Posted July 6, 2017 Comparable would be John Gibson and he's at 2.3 m for 2 more years, Helle won't see more than that. Goalie 1
Goalie Posted July 6, 2017 Report Posted July 6, 2017 Pretty common. Deal will be made b4 then. Little Wheeler Bogo Kane have all done this also. Never made It to arbitration tho. Not sure why Helle would tho... Hes not coming off the best year tho.

This is a discussion forum. Grow up.

If I remember correctly, Jets had interest in Jokinen a few years ago. He;s a left wing but known for his prowess at faceoffs (and shoot outs) which would be helpful to the Jets. I was surprised to see he's only 34 years old. He scored 11 goals last season in 68 games and 18 the year before. He might not be a bad veteran on the team. Could see him taking a lot of defensive zone face offs. Another name Ive heard people mention is Mike Fisher but I doubt he'd come here if he was going to play another year. SPuDS 1

Gotta think it's Nashville or nowhere for Mike Fisher. SPuDS, blue_gold_84, The Unknown Poster and 1 other 4

Atomic Posted July 6, 2017 Report Posted July 6, 2017 I know Dreger said we're looking for a center but I don't think that's a deal-breaker... if the best player available is primarily a winger I don't see why we wouldn't go for it. Honestly I'd love to see Thomas Vanek here on a one or two year deal.
