Monahan Gone

[johnnyonthspot]

What will the Jets do not that they are back to no real number 2 centre?
I guess he does not care about winning since he chose Columbus so good riddens
I hope Chevy has something up his sleeve.
CHI, NSV and Utah all got better.
The Jets are in tough.
I realize getting these shiny new toy on July 1 does not always work out but it does always remind me of how undesirable a location Winnipeg is for free agents and I will never fall for the trade deadline additions who wax poetic about the "peg then take the first train out.

Kyle Wellwood is making a comeback.

Laine Perfetti Ehlers

So Jets get AHL Comrie, so who is Helly's backup this coming season, average AHL Comrie sure isn't an NHL goalie!

Jets lost a first for Monohohan, piss poor management on full display here!

His .920 save % his final year in Winnipeg is the only hope for Comrie to be an NHL goalie.

That monahan contract is horrendous

 

[JetsFan815]

I am not shedding any tears.

 

[Winnipeg Jets]

Monagone

 

[sipowicz]

Chevy asleep on the hammock again…..Comrie back, can’t wait until he trades to get Harkins back…..can never have too many AHL level players!

 

[RabidOne]

Not interested at that term.

 

[wasup]

Not interested at that term.

I agree on this , maybe two years but his injury history would worry me at 5 .

 

[winnipegger]

This contract will be very bad as soon as next season. It was a good non sign.

 

[enuffidiotsalready]

Gonahan

 

[DRW204]

looking at Namestnikov as a 2c from last year:
3.49 GF/60 prior to the Monahan acquisition. the 2nd line performed fine w/ names down the middle.

i do think there there's for sure higher skilled fwds that can raise the ceiling of that line. but the centre market stunk this UFA class. I know the team loved monahan and tried re-signing him, and still appears to be looking at Henrique, however, if Names is there they could be ok.

really if they want an upgrade it'd have to be via trade.

Maybe we'll get Laine and Wheezer back as well

 

[GeorgeJETson]

Maybe Chevy will learn not to squander 1st rounders

It’s a pro-ceth as he likes to thay!

 

[WolfgangPuck]

We can’t match the CBJ offer It’s over pay Let’s see if there is another 2C available in FA

 

[SCP Guy]

Zero chance we should beat that offer and pay him 5X6 ….. my head would explode!

 

[WiscoJet]

Feel the same way I do about this as I did about the contract Dubois signed last year. I think we dodged a massive bullet.

 

[GNP]

I like Mono, but he disappeared in the playoffs for the Jets this year. Considering his injury background, and the term and dollar amount of his contract, I think it was best to let him go elsewhere, to be overpaid.

That Henrique from the Oilers did impress me in the playoffs, so maybe we can take a shot at signing him.

 

[PhilJets]

What was Brian Little Salary 7 years ago around 5.5M for 7 years at age 28 signed?

Too late about Henrique, looks like he's returning to the Coilers

Is that $ 5mil over 6yrs
OR
$ 6mil over 5yrs ??

If it's $ 6mil over 5 years -- way too much.

Sorry 5 year 6 mil per to beat CBJ by 500k (Winnipeg tax)

 

[GNP]

Too much, and considering past injuries, and no playoff push, I'm glad the Jets didn't go down that road on Mono. I'd like him at around $ 4.5 to 5 mil, over 3 years -- likely what the Jets wanted.
