[tornado24]

Just wondering if a deal could be made where the primary pieces are around the Jets sending Ville Heinola to the Flyers for Risto Ristolainen?

I don't think we have the cap space to add him atm. Not really sure he's what we need either.

 

[Dr Amazing]

No use Heinola for a better trade.

 

[Snowman]

For Winnipeg's sake I hope not. He doesn't fill a need for the Jets.

 

[Mr Kot]

No real need for this trade, does nothing for jets.

 

[Romang67]

Why would anyone want Ristolainen?

 

[Coffee]

A deal will not be made

 

[SnS]

I mean sure from this Flyers fan. But I doubt the Jets want it.

 

[CanMerc]

Why would WPG want to do this?
Risto is absolutely not a need in WPG nor an upgrade on anything they already have

 

[Tasteless Beaver]

Not a fan of this at all. Give Ville his shot.

 

[Finnen]

A deal will not be made

Ristolainen hasn't lived up to expectations in the NHL, but the form will come, the Finn will stay, the Finn is an important cog for Philadelphia.

Send him to San Jose

Ristolainen actually plays ok, not sure if his salary ok though.

You'd have to pay the Jets to take Risto and I wouldn't even want him at 50% retained.

to sabotage the jets honeymoon.

you didn't know everybody hates mon...

sorry. wrong thread.

 

[LEIFey]

Ristolainen has actually been better this season, but the contract is a concern. He’s shown promise before just to fall apart again.

 

[Wpgpage]

I'm for sure in the minority among Jets fans but I would actually love to get Risto with the Jets right now they have Collin Miller as the #3 RHD and I think that's a spot that could be upgraded.

A deal involving Heinola though is probably not going to be on the table. The Jets certainly appear to believe in the player and the impatience for getting a guy with some size for the #3 RD spot would be Heinola taking that job from the current incumbents Logan Stanley and Hayden Fluey. A Heinola Miller pair is a little on the small side and one of them would need to play 2nd PK which isn't ideal. If you move Villie that need to bring in size opposite to him isn't there.

 

[FlyguyOX]

Risto a bit redundant with Samberg, but I guess that could be a good thing.

This flyers fan would do it

utter nonsense!

Cannot think of a worse fit for Heinola than PHI and a worse fit for Ristolainen than WPG
