PLD says hi...

Damn for some reason I thought Rob Blake signed that contract. Regardless PLD getting traded was the only reason Scheif and Helly signed. And I doubt the Jets put out pressers about Stanzilla coming back to ship him off...Especially with a better contract than Ville...the kid is now in the prove your worth stage after a long and somewhat bumpy development road...

A good 2 year show us what you can do contract. Now the big question... will he actually get to play?

I think barring an injury or catastrophically bad tc/exy Ville will get a legit shot this year. With his waiver eligibility and contract there's no way he doesn't get picked up.

I guess there's a possibility he just sits in the pb but it's up to him at this point. He has to come into camp with the mindset that he has to give the coaches no choice but to play him.

Poolman? Niku? He made the team out of camp last year lmao.

he made the camp out in 2019 too...

It was the only way PLD could get the extra year on his contract if the Jets signed him. I wonder if Rob Blake regrets the trade? I know Chevy doesn't...

Chevy signed him to the contract so it could be 8 years, but it was Blake's contract IMO.

Time to see how Heinola performs in the NHL over a longer period. If he can use his skating and smarts, great. If he can't perform over the long term, then at least the team knows.

Just want to see him get a legit shot, he may very will not turnout but we need to see what he can do. Give him some time to develop, don't give up after a couple bad games.

Here’s hoping we don’t use any of Gus’ bubblewrap ………

Blake’s time as the GM has to be ending soon.

I'd wave back with 1 finger.

Unfortunately for Heinola last season our defense was pretty healthy all season, very unlucky for him because usually you lose 1 or 2 defenseman with injury throughout the year.
