Dallas? Lol. Niemi sucks

Dallas puck stopping tandem is better than most of the western conference. Top 4 forwards are probably the best in the West also. Defence a little weak but getting better. Def playoff contenders

Which Western teams do you think they have better goaltending than?

 

 

 

Calgary, Colorado, Edmonton, Phoenix, San Jose, St. Louis, Vancouver, Winnipeg

They have almost 10 million in goaltenders and both aren't very good actually. Niemi has regressed big time and Lehtonen while good, is very injury prone. I'm not worried about the stars goaltending at all. 

 

Honestly, I don't even think it's as much about goaltending as it is about playing good strong defensive hockey. Dallas has tons of fire power, aging fire power at that but.. they lack the ability to actually play D. Niemi doesn't change things, actually he might be worse than he was last year with San Jose.

Don't think that you're giving Dallas credit for there off season moves which i believe are enough to get them into the post season

 

Yep we heard this exact same refrain last off-season.

6 yrs / 40.5M deal for Giordano in Calgary. Lower aav than I expected. He'll be pretty old when it's over so I suspect it's as front loaded as is allowed.

Not too surprised. They made it to the 2nd round without him :) So much for my Buff for Giordano trade.

Looks like the Jets may have found their backup for the Moose signing journeyman goalie David Leggio to a PTO

 

 We have one already.  Comrie, Eric.

 

Comrie will probably play in the ECHL to get in as many games as possible.

Really? That's the first I've seen that suggestion. For me, the talent drop off is too great there. Besides, in 4 seasons in the WHL he only averaged 42 games. To me, 30-34 starts in the AHL is better than 60 in the ECHL.

As per his wiki "On July 1, 2015, the Jets signed Jussi Olkinuora, to play for the AHL Manitoba Moose for the 2015-16 season."

Comrie will get max games in ECHL, Helly will max games with Moose, Olkinuora is signed backup, Leggio is signed PTO and has to beat Olkinuora for backup spot. Comrie needs to keep progressing and he wont do that sitting on the Moose bench,as Helly will play 3/4 of the games

Chipman was on 1290 and said both Buff and Ladd had expressed "strong" desire to stay here.

 

So did Frolik.

 

He also reiterated rhe Jets draft and develop model.

 

Is there a team in the league that does not draft and develop?
