I don't think the Jets have any interest in Brossoit, been there done that
I expect they like Brossoit quite a lot, just not at that cap hit. They'll ride Rittich when they need to, expect a game from him, likely in Seattle. Otherwise it's Vezinabuyck for 65 or so games.I don't think the Jets have any interest in Brossoit, been there done that
What I can't believe is that the team continues to have success at that level despite really poor choices and the terrible way they treat their players and staff.I still cannot believe that the Golden Showers traded away Suzuki for Patches.
Location location location means everything in hockey. Young millionaires love southern states.What I can't believe is that the team continues to have success at that level despite really poor choices and the terrible way they treat their players and staff.
Just goes to show that location and winning overcome a lot in the eyes of a player.
Probably In an attempt to win now. Patches was good for them but evidently older player who dealt with injuries and cap got to them. Similarly, trading Brannstrom+2nd for Mark Stone was an absolute coup.I still cannot believe that the Golden Showers traded away Suzuki for Patches.
Yup and spending the nights gambling, eating at great restaurants and going to strip clubs might be something pro athletes might like to doLocation location location means everything in hockey. Young millionaires love southern states.
You leave Evander alone, he just a very serious injury!Yup and spending the nights gambling, eating at great restaurants and going to strip clubs might be something pro athletes might like to do
No we shouldn't. That move cascades down the org for minimal benefit.
He's coming off a bad season, he's coming off an injury, and he carries a $2.3M cap hit.I don't see it that way.
He prospered here before, backing up Helle. I think he can again. BU goalie is important.

I'm aware of all of that.
BTW, how can they waive a guy who is on IR? Thought they needed to take him off IR before moving him.
His bad season was better than Rittich has been so far for Jets. Waive Rittich, Bro adds 1.4 to our cap.
Didn’t rittich steal us a game in Arizona?I'm aware of all of that.

Why? Helle will play 60 65 games easily
Why waste money on a backup goalie? If helle gets hurt? Sure i guess but he's playing 60 65 games if he's not.
Backup goalie is really the least of the concerns
Didn’t rittich steal us a game in Arizona?
First game was shaky.
So Rittich goes on waivers then, when he clears do the Jets carry 3 goalies? Do they send Rittich down? Holm and Salminen need time to play, so which of them sits?
That's the cascading effect. Brossoit costs like an extra $1.5m for minimal benefit.
This team doesn't need Brossoit and they aren't going to pay that kind of dough even with Vegas retaining some of it.
He would also add $3,000,000 to the organizations bottom line as that is his base salary this season. Not sure Chipman/Chevy want to add $1.4 M towards the cap and $3 M out of team profits for approx similar back up goaltending. Also the problem of adding another goalie to the mix on the Moose where they are developing Salminen and Holms. My guess if Rittich struggles the first choice will be to give Salminen an opportunity to prove he can be the backup. If not there is likely someone you can pick up cheap at the TD.I'm aware of all of that.

I'm assuming .500 is winning percentage not SV%Doesn't matter who the back up is here this team wins and loses and makes the playoffs on the back of Helle, a back up that can give you as close to .500 is good enough and Rittich could be that.
