My rational side says this is a good deal on both sides but my heart wishes he wanted to be here and score 50 goals a season. On 2021-01-23 at 4:42 PM, iHeart said: well won't it be longer anyway since he'll have to quarantine when he arrives? Expand 14 days. He'll miss 7 games. On 2021-01-23 at 4:16 PM, Noeller said: Jets retained salary on Laine, according to Frank Seravalli, which makes a questionable deal worse. Feels like a big overpay by the Jets... Expand 26% to make the deal work. No biggie because it comes out of Thompson's pocket. We don't need cap space this year, anyhow.

GCJenks Posted January 23, 2021 Report Posted January 23, 2021 I don’t know enough about Dubois to just whether I like this or not from the hockey side. From the Winnipeg side of the game this makes us look bad to fans across the league. When I talk to my friends I. The US the player they talk about is Laine. I’ve already been asked what sucks so much about Winnipeg that no one wants to stay there?

M.O.A.B. Posted January 23, 2021 Report Posted January 23, 2021 Winnipeg is slowly becoming the farm team for other teams. Truba, Laine and Roslovic. Who’s next? blue_gold_84 1
FrostyWinnipeg Posted January 23, 2021 Author Report Posted January 23, 2021 Well since i called this trade a while ago. I'm happy with it Roslo like Armia has the chance to be 20g guy but it's not going to happen with Wheeler/Laine ahead of him and Laine still ahead of him. Laine on top line in CBJ now but whose his center? 🤔 Cap space? We save 1m+ Schief/PLD/Stastny/Lowry After 1 game Laine finally became the Jets best RW and never played for us again 🤷♂️ On 2021-01-23 at 5:01 PM, M.O.A.B. said: Winnipeg is slowly becoming the farm team for other teams.

Expand Armia is not a 20 goal scorer. Laine I'd on the top line and will have Domi centering him. It's laughable. Belehind him they have Roslovic.

Who’s next? Expand That’s a huge stretch. Winnipeg likely had very little, to nothing, to do with those players leaving. You could probably make a better case that our coach had a bigger impact.
JCon Posted January 23, 2021 Report Posted January 23, 2021 (edited) Okay, the Jets finally made a long-term deal to address a shortfall in their team, a centre. We moved from an area of strength, the wing, and added a piece that will mean out centre depth is set for many years. We have goal scorers and two way centres. We obviously need help in the back but we have a few pieces already and a few coming up. I feel like we should be a contender this year. We're better than Vancouver, Edmonton, Calgary, Ottawa and Montreal. We may be better than Toronto too. This team will be a top 5 team for the last quarter of the season. I'm saying we come out of the northern division on the playoffs and compete to go to the Stanley Cup. Edited January 23, 2021 by JCon Noeller, Mark F, FrostyWinnipeg and 1 other 2 1 1

rebusrankin Posted January 23, 2021 Report Posted January 23, 2021 Totally speculating but since PLD's dad works for the Moose is it possible that Chevy knows that PLD is willing to sign long term with us? Stickem 1

Expand I would say,yes, but they can't extend him until after this season.
Goalie Posted January 23, 2021 Report Posted January 23, 2021 Looking at the fancy stats. PLD Is a play driving center. 6 3 220. Laine had 1.5 good seasons elite seasons here and 1.5 not so much. Ppl remember couple years back when Laine was the worst player on the ice for 25 30 games? Roslo had no value.
BomberBall Posted January 23, 2021 Report Posted January 23, 2021 On 2021-01-23 at 5:46 PM, JCon said: What's the facepalm for? Expand I kind of agree... Why move Stastny to wing? So Lowry won’t be on the 4th? IMO he’s a solid 4C. One thing I like about Stastny on the wing, is it gives Gustafsson a shot at 4C, but didn’t Maurice already say Harkins is getting that chance?
