They've never won another playoff series after 04. Then, they couldn't even make the playoffs with Iggy on the roster. wait didn't the flames advance to the second round in 2015 only to get doused by those damn ducks?
The Unknown Poster Posted April 29, 2017 Author Report Posted April 29, 2017 Too bad we don't have any picks like that to give for a good goalie. Of course they do have to sign him. He's a UFA. But he was my pick. Lawless is probably right. It will be Elliott
Goalie Posted April 29, 2017 Report Posted April 29, 2017 We do have picks. But unlike Carolina who has an aging ward and a worse than hutch Lack... we have a goalie (helle) that we care about losing to Vegas. Carolina doesn't. Fwiw Darling and his Agent had no idea he was traded. Elliott makes sense but lawless is just guessing like everyone else. He's probably bottom of my want list.
The Unknown Poster Posted April 30, 2017 Author Report Posted April 30, 2017 Yes lawless is wildly guessing. He and you and me all have the same level of insight. Lol
Brandon Posted May 1, 2017 Report Posted May 1, 2017 Lawless has said on the radio that Elliot would be most likely since he would be open to playing in Winnipeg and he would come cheap and would be ok playing 30-40 games per year unlike some of the other guys who would want to be clear cut #1.

The Unknown Poster Posted May 1, 2017 Author Report Posted May 1, 2017 Yup. Jets aren't looking for a starting goalie. They believe that is Helle. They are looking for a solid back up. If the Jets goaltending is below average again next season the fans are going to get angry and loud.

Brandon Posted May 1, 2017 Report Posted May 1, 2017 What Lawless said is that Helle would get 30 starts, Elliott (or whoever else) would get 30 starts and of the two whoever played better would start the remaining games. I definitely believe him when he says that is the Jets plan.

Signing Elliott would tell is that. If they thought Helle couldnt be a starter, they'd look at Bishop, Darling or Fleury.
iHeart Posted May 1, 2017 Report Posted May 1, 2017 wouldn't it be nice if the Jets could get Bishop?

Rich Posted May 3, 2017 Report Posted May 3, 2017 http://www.tsn.ca/nhl-issues-list-of-expansion-exempt-players-1.741493 NHL released their list of expansion draft exempt players. These players can't be picked by Vegas nor can they be used by teams to expose their minimum requirements. For those hoping ... Myers is not on the list. Quote The players include forwards David Bolland and Craig Cunningham and defenceman Chris Pronger of the Arizona Coyotes, Buffalo Sabres forward Cody McCormick, winger David Clarkson of the Columbus Blue Jackets, winger Johan Franzen and centre Joe Vitale of the Detroit Red Wings, New Jersey Devils winger Ryane Clowe, New York Islanders centre Mikhail Grabovski, Pascal Dupuis of the Pittsburgh Penguins, and winger Nathan Horton and blueliner Stephane Robidas of the Toronto Maple Leafs.
Atomic Posted May 3, 2017 Report Posted May 3, 2017 Honestly I want one of the Caps' goalies - Holtby or Grubauer. They are going to lose Grubauer to Vegas FOR SURE if they keep Holtby. I believe we could trade for one of them. Not cheap. But I'd be willing to move two first round picks and more for Holtby (he could be on the outs if the Caps have another early exit... stay tuned). I'd pay less for Grubauer but still a decent price, perhaps a first rounder and a good prospect like Roslovic.
The Unknown Poster Posted May 3, 2017 Author Report Posted May 3, 2017 (edited) A lot of people who didnt think they would miss Lawless' input is going to miss it. Must have been a heck of a deal to leave TSN. He had to be well-compensated for everything he did. But living in Vegas sounds amazing! CFL Insider Gary Lawless leaving TSN According to the club, Lawless will serve as the Vegas Golden Knights “insider.” In this role, Lawless will author in-depth breaking news stories, columns, features, event recaps and player/staff profiles on vegasgoldenknights.com and will serve as the team’s lead on-camera reporter, filing daily video recaps from Golden Knights practices, games, events and press conferences. Lawless spent the last 18 years in Winnipeg as both a newspaper and radio personality and wrote extensively about the Winnipeg Blue Bombers. Originally from Peterborough, Lawless was also the public relations director of the Toronto Argonauts in the mid-1990s. TSN moved Lawless into a CFL Insider role in September 2015 when he joined the network full-time. Edited May 3, 2017 by The Unknown Poster
