This guy is terrible. I don't know the Jets that well but you're telling me you couldn't bring a prospect up to play weak minutes on the 3rd pairing or something?
Confirmed Signing with Link: [WPG] Brian Strait (1 year, $600k)

I'm pretty sure that pairing would shred the fabric of the space-time continuum and cause the offensive zone to disappear through a wormhole.

This is the best thing that could have happened to the Isles this offseason. The guy is a terrible hockey player,

Weird signing. I'm not sure how Winnipeg will manage to maximize Strait's fantasy football potential in Manitoba.

Any chance that the puck would fly in the direction of the wormhole? That would bring their CF up to 1, which is about 1 more than that pairing reasonably should get.

Typical Chevy depth signing, nothing more, nothing to be upset about.
Chevy loves to hoard backup D; Strait fills the Adam Pardy press box spot, or gets buried on the Moose ala Jay Harrison.
Wouldn't surprise to see him sign more of these types yet, insurance.

Stay safe!
I can sleep in peace tonight. I had a recurring nightmare that we were going to re-sign him, even if it was a 2-way deal. With Capuano around, he would have found a way to get this guy into the lineup.
No one bashed this guy more than me, I'm actually going to miss him in some sick way. I wish him a lot of luck, glad he's no longer an Isle.
Isles fans, we can now have the parade. Jack Capuano is going to have to cry himself to sleep tonight.

It's indeed typical for Chevy to hoard the worst defensemen in the NHL. Pardy is ten times the player Strait is.

Oh When the Spurs
Jets have the weirdest management and scouting.
Sometimes we're really smart and sometimes we're incredibly stupid.

Is it really a dream if more than 1 person has it ?
I may have bashed him more than you.
Let's start a poll to see

It isn't as if he'll be in the opening night lineup for the Jets; he might be for the Manitoba Moose though.
I choose not to get upset when I see someone take out an insurance policy.

Jets fan: I suggest you start stock piling Freddie Mercury gifs now for the GDT when he ****s up. You're going to need them.

Please don't go there.
This is possibly the worst D man in the NHL.
Before you know it he will be playing his 40th game for the jets and you will remember this day

That's not how insurance policies work.
Fire insurance -- I'm sorry your house burnt down, I'll give you some money to compensate.
Brian Strait -- I'm sorry your defenseman suffered an injury, I'll kick you in the nuts repeatedly.

If he is playing for the Manitoba Moose though, or is sitting in the press box, then how does he qualify as being the worst D man in the NHL? He is clearly just a space filler here. Sorry that he sucked when he played for NYI; that does not mean that he means anything more than being Jay Harrison redux when here however. He is just injury insurance, a practice dummy.
