  • I honestly don't recall.  Winnipeg isn't for everyone but in my opinion that's what makes it good.  I've seen lots of articles in tourism magazines recently and other types of magazines sayi

    I distinctly remember sitting in a Perkins in St James across from my best female friend who I was crazy about and who kept waffling on whether she felt the same, the Jets had just left and said to he

    We won last game...you go with that goalie. Actually the idea was Branson of the North with Pantages, Walker, Met and even that one dive on Main Street(since bulldozed) being used as venues.

I don't know what Torts is doing but......good god, why are the BJ's suddenly the best team in the east? they were the very first team that we beat in the preseason

They have a very good D and very good young players and their vets are playing well above their expectations really. 

Plus Bobrovsky is 1 of the bestgoalie in the nhl. 

Columbus is what the Jets will be soon... maybe next year even.

Another game with no forwards over the 20 minute mark...Petan, Dano and Staf all got less than 10 minutes.

PK looks better with Armia and Matthias on it.

Now Armia just needs to learn to score or his linemates do, somebody on that line needs to start scoring, they were the only line last night who didn't but probably had the most chances to score.  They need a goal scorer on that line and quite honestly, there isn't one. Matthias averages 7 to 10 goals a year, Armia hasn't score more than 4 or 5 in his career, Lowry? Be lucky if he gets a few more.

I like Matthias but I think they can move him off that line for someone a bit better as a scorer. Armia gets chances and will score. Lowry will from time to time. But Matthias is a black hole. Petan between Lowry and Armia would be better. perreault too

Perreault Lowry Armia might work

 

Petan Little Wheeler would be a nice line

 

Laine Scheif Ehlers

 

4th line could be...

 

Matthias Copp Dano..

 

Don't need stafford thorburn or Burmi on the ice anymore.

Maurice likes that line and probably doesn't care if they score much he only cares that they don't get scored against. He wants that line against the other team's top lines. He likes a big Center so I can't see Lowry going to the wing.

I like those lines.  Keep Thorburn and maybe Burmi as extra forwards for injury insurance (Burmi can play all positions).

Yep I guess, but it's still this kind of logic IMO ... ;)

Its still focked up though that a sitting Burmi is still better then a sitting Copp or Tanev.

Because Copp and Tanev have a future with the Jets and benefit by playing.  Burmi doesnt have a future with the Jets and is an extra forward...and likely traded by the deadline.  Same goes with Thorbs, he might have more of a future with the Jets but he gains nothing by playing more minutes.  He is what he is.

Burmi tradeable? LOL!

Ya really...1.55m and a RFA this summer and he hasn't been traded yet? Nobody wants him.

Chevy on the phone to Washington's GM Brian MacLellan:  Hey there, have I got a deal for you!

Mac:  Oh no, is this about that Russian guy again?

Chevy: Ah...well I...ah...

Mac: Look bub, no one wants him, at any price.  Why you guys brought him back from the KHL is a mystery, but it's your mystery to solve, not ours!

Chevy: Well you know, you've got that Madison Bowey guy in the minors...

Mac: Yeah, and??

Chevy:  He'd sure look good playing with Morrissey again like he did in Kelowna...and on the gold-medal world junior team...

Mac: Yeah, and??

Chevy: So I was thinking, Burmi, Stafford, and a third rounder for him?

Mac: Stafford and a third rounder.  Keep Burmi.

Chevy:  No deal!

Mac:  I am hanging up now.  CLICK!

I agree with most of this except the part about bringing him back from the KHL. He flourished there and he's an asset. Not much of a risk at a decent price.

Really, if Chevy was just looking to unload the contract, he would put him on waivers. Someone would take a chance.
