Trade Barker & Milanovich for O'Shea & Walters?
Who started well both seasons but faded pretty bad. I'll reserve judgement for a few seasons more.
-
The Expansion Draft
Yes. June 18-20. NHL draft is 23-24.

He found one QB? Callaros? Who else am I missing?

The Expansion Draft
I'll be surprised if Trouba remains a Jet come the expansion draft. Pleasantly surprised.

Haha! Dubnyk is one of the best keepers in the league?

Vegas Mighty Knights?

The Expansion Draft
There would be some advantages for Enstrom, to be sure. I'm not sure why the Golden Nuggets wouldn't take him, unless they didn't see value in one of the other kids. I'm not sure why they would agree to not take him either.

VEGAS
No doubt. I still think Seattle gets a team before Quebec does.
-
The Expansion Draft
I think that's it right there. On good faith, you tell him that you'll open up contract renegotiations on July 1st.

VEGAS
I'm not. Why come to Canada now when the dollar is low. I know Quebecor has deeeeeeep pockets, but paying a $500M USD franchise fee is very steep.

The Expansion Draft
I don't know if they're all using the same source material and they're all wrong, but I'm seeing Copp as exempt on every list I see. I know he played a couple of games at the end of 2014/15 but perhaps he's still exempt? That would be nice.

Vegas Golden Nuggets. That's what I'm calling them.

Yep, my bad.

My point is that it's only fair dollar wise, if it's for a shorter term. If you're tacking on 3 garbage years, the AAV should go way down. The most he could get on the market is 7 years. So why pay him for 8 and not get a discount at all? I'm glad the Sharks are paying him and not us for those terms.

He recruited QBs and let them walk away. He's stuck with a broken-down Ray and a broken Willy. I'm not discounting the value of a Grey Cup but all that value has been spent. Look no further than the stands. That Grey Cup may as well have been 20 years ago. He has not been able to field a quality team in years, despite the East being a dumpster fire.

How is it fair? You're going to pay him $8M when he's 37? 38? 39? I know it's AAV but it's an anchor. Seems desperate for a player that's already at your club.

He'll be 39(?) when this contract is done. Wow. Chevy looks like a genius once again.

The Argos won the 2012 Grey Cup. He was the GM. He did not bring in Ray or Owens, who were their best players. Same question as above. Good job with QBs? Explain. He already had Ray. Milanovich was the HC during the Grey Cup. Ray was the QB during the Grey Cup. He can't be praised for them and then blame them when things come apart. Knowing stuff and execution are two different things. EDIT: He barely put an imprint on that 2012 Grey Cup championship team. And his teams have only been to one Grey Cup.

I haven't seen that before. It says the Jets will travel ~8,000 fewer miles this year over last. If accurate, that's pretty incredible. We're nowhere near the top in terms of miles traveled.

Has to be the Las Vegas Strippers. It works on so many levels!

RethinkIng Paul Maurice....
If Maurice had to deal with the ratio, he would leave left the non-import too. Apples and oranges.

Sounds like Chungh might not be a free agent
That's interesting. I'm glad both sides agreed to it. I would like to be a fly on the wall of those talks. Well, any talks, actually.

I'm curious why this was done?

Next .... What changes will bring a Championship?
Absolutely. Protect the ball. Move the chains. Be a leader. He does all of those.
