GDT: All things training camp

[KingBogo]

True. I just thought of acquiring someone in the sense of finding a silver lining, an opportunity. Fleury, Coglan & Lundmark strike me as being pretty good at #s 8,9 & 10.

Fleury is a better player than you give him credit for. He has played mostly 6/7 roles in the past. Certainly not the player everyone expected as a top 10 pick, but serviceable and likely better than most players that will be available on waivers.

I anticipate he'll get in his customery 25 to 30 games with us this year.

Yeah, he was much smoother with the puck and was playing more within himself.

When I first read that...

The first time I saw Fleury play he was dominating Nolan Patrick physically in the Memorial Cup. Players careers can ark or decline to varying degrees. Luckily for the Jets Fleury was drafted ahead of Ehlers. But behind Michael Dal Colle and Jake Virtanen.

Jets are a good landing spot for him, I hope he sticks around for awhile. If/when the two injured players come back, may or may not be a spot for him.

Funny to see some of the same guys who commonly use the Kova and Chis couldn't make the jets roster so who cares if they leave... are now Hayden Fleury boosters.

He's a 7/8th Dman - he made Cernak worse... and he's coming off a pretty bad injury season.

Coghlan is the same scenario - he's a 7th D at best...

I'll say it again - its just baffling to see the Jets develop two good 3rd pairing D and by all reports really good locker room guys and just throw them away and replace them with real waiver scraps - who can't score at all.

Hope it works.

I also think this is an ideal scenario to see if anything we have is able to play. We're not in the middle of a playoff battle. I guess it depends how long term Stan and Ville are

Wonder when we see CHL trades with Barlow and Yager involved?

Would think they get moved early in the season. Hopefully Barlow can play meaningful playoff games this spring.

I didn't say a word about how good or bad Fleury is.
