Game 48 : BeDevils @ Jets

[Ducky]

I hate to agree but to a large extent, you are right. We are about 11m under the cap.

The team has had some not great luck last month or so..... been more than a few  games where they were all over the other team, but the puck went everywhere but in the net. Over it, beside it, just can't get it to go in.

That'll change. They're actually pretty good I think. It's not the CFL.....it takes more than a few years to get ahead in the NHL

as far as money goes... don't know how much of their money is from ticket sales, but those are canadian dollars....revenue in canadian money, player salary in American......that's got to hurt. It's good that they are thrifty, or they'd be leaving again soon enough.

I think a team that can't win more than 2 games in a row all season doesn't deserve to be in the playoffs.

We aren't going to make the playoffs and I hope Chevy holds out until the TD and gets as much futures as he can for Ladd.

This has been debated many times. There are things built into the CBA to mitigate the poor dollar. It's not perfect but thenjets aren't going to operate a lean business over IT. 

They are spending $400m on a new development. They'll be fine.

Lemieux can actually touch the ceiling.

Cause 6 goals in 18 games was not good enough for the Jets last year.

Stempy made Chevy look bad tonight.

 and yet he scored twice on saturday
