Wonder if they are sitting him to trade him?
You wouldn't think Niku would be the type of player that would be sat if he was being discussed in trades. I would guess he doesn't have enough of an established track record that teams wouldn't want to get some viewings of him before making a trade.

That makes more sense I was just throwing it out there. My guess is if they were involving Sami in a larger trade it would be in the off season.

Good battles together have had these Jets; these grunting prairie schooners,
While the faithful boardsfolk sharpen their clench
2:00 starts, and played to the dead vast and middle of the afternoon
Been thus encount'rd.
Aye, and now behold!
Skaters like your Kapitan and Shuffles
Armed at point, at centre exactly, sticks ready,
Will appear before the Keybank throng and with blinding speed
Blast and blaze around sundry wallowing Buffaloes.
In recent history, have we skat'd hard? Aye,
Giving Woofalo oppression and fear-surprised eyes,
Pincered within the grip of the human clap bomb machine Laine;
Whilst they distill'd to jelly with the act of fear!
Stand not still you forwards
Farmboy, Apples, Fly, Rosario, and young Eaker
But rather summon and gather thy courage,
Skate with urgency, and let thy skills speak for themselves.
In dreadful expediency impart thy vulcanized rubber will,
And I with ye on this afternoon’d night keep the watch;
Where, I would guess you will deliver, both in time,
Before this sullen Eastern throng - each play made true and good,
And stay the apparition of playoff elimination.
For in this, our minds are not more like.
But beyond this; the time to shake hands with history,
We of the cheering Winnipeg crowd,
Shall think themselves,
And their team, anew,
In the wake of this great year,
And we will hold our heads high whiles any speaks
Of the Jets’ grit and skill on this Buffalo'd-game day.
Gawd you are skilled with these!

Pre-game audio:

Player: Cody Eakin.

Coach Maurice: How will he use Cody Eakin today? Getting Eakin involved in his first game. Logan Shaw comes out? Who starts in net? What were his thoughts on Ralph Krueger and facing him twice in a week. More on the relationship between himself and Krueger. What does the move for Eakin do for the team at this time of the year? Any changes on D? On the game played in Philadelphia for Wheeler and Scheifele?

Since the trading deadline is tomorrow, I thought I would post this gem I found years ago. Still makes me laugh today, and features a few former Jets...


We need to win this one today, we can't let yesterday's loss affect us! Go Jets Go! :hockey:

Didn't realize there was a Part Two to this video...

I thought this is where he was going to slot in. PMo was not putting Eakins on the 4th line. Hopefully they have a good day.

Surprise surprise, Moe messing with something that is working.

Put Eakins on the fourth line....

That was never going to happen and Chevy would have been aware of that. Either way Paul is who he is and Eakins is a tenured vet and there is no way Paul was playing Sadie over Cody.

I'm sure he was doesn't make it a smart decision imo given that lines chemistry. I would have thought a smarter use of him would be to make a functional fourth line.
