Yeah that one is a concern, I recall she was complaining about the weather and shit already LOL, she might be nagging Gabe to GTFO hahaha.

Need to find him a good ol Manitoba girl me thinks.
That's where you hope that the tight knit community that has developed in the locker room has extended to the wives/girlfriends, too.

Maybe she's made some good friends in that group

Seems like the chatter seems to be the Islanders are trying to sign Nelson to an extension so we will have to see if that comes to fruition. If so thats another center off the table.

Also seems to be some rumblings that Dobson is in play for Petterson.

I stand by my thoughts yesterday that a cheaper RD option would be Seth Jones if we can convince him to waive to come here.

I bet we would get the blue jackets version of Jones if we paired him with Morrissey. Get him retained to 7 or 8mil aav and that could be a really premium player for us.

We'd need him to waive though, so probably not on the table

wouldn't Parayko be a better option?

I assume CHI would have to retain salary.

Hard no to Seth Jones especially at anything over $4m a season...

If we are looking at Chicago, Connor Murphy would be a very good 3rd line/PK option - with only one year left at $4m too

Maybe they throw in Pat Maroon so we can PB him as our good luck charm
 
Seems more likely seeing as he's an Alberta guy.

We'll find out if he's paired with Josh on Monday I think (first Canada practice), if they get along and have chemistry we've got a shot at him waiving
I'm so excited to see them play together (hopefully) I've always thought they would be an amazing pair together. Unfortunately he's been pretty up front that he doesn't want to go anywhere. Don't really see the Blues moving him either they seem to want to continue to try to complete.

Want no part of Schenn at the price that's being floated he's producing at the same level as Vlad but makes 4.5 mil more. His contract does back dive in the final 2 years so I guess that's a positive for a Jets team that's unlikely to be a cap ceiling team past next year. If the price was just a pick and a prospect or maybe a pick and a low end roster player sure that's a fair deal but that's about it.

Laughton makes a lot if sense of we are doing the Lowry 2c idea. He's also played top 6 and special teams for the flyers often as well.

Apparently the room and org absolutely love him in Philly so I don't think team chemistry would be an issue.

Connor - Scheif - Vilardi
Perfetti - Lowry - Ehlers
Nino - Laughton - Appleton
Barron - Kup - Iafallo

Gus as the extra
 
23. Thinks Rickard Rakell would be a perfect fit for Winnipeg

He's had a fantastic year playing alongside Crosby, but where would he fit in on the Jets?

Connor – Scheifele – Vilardi
Ehlers – Lowry – Rackell
Niederreiter –Namestikov – Perfetti
Iafollo – Kuppari – Appleton

Any forward acquisition is going to come at a roster forward's expense. Iafollo, Gustaffson, Barron, perhaps even Kuppari would have to be dealt.

Rackell has a cap hit of $5 million & is signed 3 years beyond this season. Ehlers?

It's not a hard no, but I'm not sure if Rakell is the "perfect fit" as is suggested.
If we wait until the deadline I don’t think anyone has to go as roster limits no longer exist. Just cap limits. Which we have about 12 mil of at the deadline.

But you are correct. Prior to that, our roster would all have to be dealt or placed on waivers one for one for each player added. I’m not sure how moving anyone would be received on the team. I really think we are doing all our moves last minute.
