jets traded a 2nd round pick for 5 years of nino ...who has been tremendous on the third line with Lowry. Good job Chevy
Cap goes up, Pionk, Schmidt, and Wheeler are off the books. How much of a raise could Ehlers realistically ask for? 7.5 means we only have to find 1.5 million for him.Not sure what this means for Ehlers in two years with regards to cap structure.
That said... as deep as this forward group appears to be now, it might be even better as our high end prospects like Rutger start pushing guys down the line up
Gus and Barron?Prob need to make spots for rutger and at this point Chibrikov and lambert sooner rather than later. Iafallo and ehlers?
Agreed, this was a nice use of assets by Chevy. When you break it down to draft capital GMs would take the exchange of a mid 2nd round pick for 5 years of a solid middle 6 forward everyday of the week.jets traded a 2nd round pick for 5 years of nino ...who has been tremendous on the third line with Lowry.

I don't think the organization will be in any particular hurry. These guys are all 20 y/o and younger and are on year 1 of their ELCs or haven't even started them yet. I'd expect Chevy to run an experienced vet heavy group for a couple years yet and use the prospects as waiver exempt injury replacement guys as they prove ready.Future Decisions made on Gabe Iafallo apples ehlers required and KC and Fetts.
Pressing Decisions required on demelo Dillon and bro eventually here
Schmidt is a buy out at this point. Waive him.

Name the last ufa elite player who made it to ufa, bottom line they normally don't. And the ones who do have their destination in mind already
We were good for a while so our cupboard emptied but
Rutger lambert chibrikov salomonster Barlow lucius zhilkin = recruitment on its way
Little rhd light but lots of teams are
Totally agree.Perfect.
Again.
Chevy being Chevy. I like the fact that you never ever never hear a whisper.....then BAM! Wow, that is better than what I was hoping for!
Names extension
Dubois Deal
Helly & FeFe signings
Those are just from the last 6 months.......
Chevy has built up some good will since the last TDL and especially through the summer with the PLD trade and the Scheifele and Helly signings. Signing Nino to a nice fair contract, gives him a another nice little bump. How the season plays will be crucial, but for now I think the majority of posters are quite happy with where he has gotten this team to. IMO Bones is much closer to seeing this board's wrath if things go south then Chevy is at this point.Totally agree.
And totally expect that within a few weeks there's going to be a mob with pitchforks demanding Chevy's head for something he's done or not done or for no reason at all.
Bedard, who hails from North Vancouver and played his developmental hockey in that area, won't be playing in the city closest to his hometown until Dec. 17. There's a difference between a hometown team and the team that drafted a player into the WHL.Connor fn Bedard seemed pretty excited to play in the city closest to his hometown
You don't like dry, above average temperatures in the winter?Hope this is the only El Nino that's big news for the winter.
Forgive this fan living far away but why does Winnipeg have such a negative reputation? My friend that migrated to where I live, Columbus, Georgia, is from northern Manitoba that is a huge Jets fan and has literally gotten into fights if someone says anything bad about Winnipeg.
So where does the negative reputation come from? My friend says is a great small city and is extremely proud of it. I know for as long as I've been a NHL fan going back to 1980 I've heard about how hard the Jets had it in keeping players.
From my own research it seems it is a very nice city to live in FWIW. I know you guys and gals on this board are very friendly and nice and I think that speaks well for the general Manitoba community.
Totally agree!!Totally agree.

It's not just other posters. I've seen it from our hf Jets posters quite often.Agreed, elite UFA will never come here but I'm tired of hearing especially from other teams posters that we can't even keep our own free agents let alone try to sign some.
