Those Florida mosquitoes are surprisingly wimpy too. Tiny, frail Heinola mosquitoes, as opposed to the Byfuglien like mosquitoes we get here. Winnipeg's had a pretty good run when it comes to mosquitoes over the last decade, though...nowhere near as bad as it was in the 90s and before.
Yeah, I have to agree totally. Over the last 5- 6 years, I may have only been bitten maybe 1 or 2 times, in each year. That’s way better than it was about 10 - 15 years ago, when you’d get swarmed by those blood thirsty skeeters.
 
Do some GMs wait until after a game is played to announce a trade? Or is this bad form?

Wondering if we might still hear something before I go to bed. Im getting worried.

Anyone hear anything from any Saskatchewan Gas attendants lately? They always seem to have the inside scoop on these things.
 
Assuming Nelson doesn't re-sign with NYI, I can understand from the Jets perspective getting Nelson as a rental. Not sure why from a Jets perspective we would won't to sign long term? He will be 34 y/o at the start of next season and you would have to think he would be looking at at least 5 years, maybe more if he can get it.
He’ll be 34 before next season begins so a three year deal makes sense. Maybe four. But anything more is likely to be bought out.

I am surprised people want to offer Nelson 3-5 years at his age. Look how fast Wheeler declined at around the same age. Anything more than 2 years is too much. 5 years, and I hanging up the phone right there.

Columbus really screwed up their end of the trade by putting themselves in a bad financial position. A good rental usually gets a 1st. Considering he has another year, it's more than fair IMO.

They chose Laine over Bjorkstrand... wild choice in hindsight.

Replacing iaffalo 4 mill with Nelson @ 5 million isn't big deal.. still decent cap space avble to sign our free agents... will have about 10 million to play with buy out clearing up and cap increase.. let Appleton go to

Going three years rather than two brings the AAV down presumably and you can eat the third year if he falls off a cliff. Wheeler was a problem because you couldn’t just move him down the line up. That wasn’t going to work and there were fractures in the team.
