Posted January 25, 20178 yr comment_244924 5 assists in 27 games for the Moose and possibly their worst d man. Called up... If Toby can't go tomorrow, our top 4 D will consist of Buff Morrissey Trouba Strait/Melchiori/Stuart Postma/ Strait/Melchiori/Stuart You think the D zone play is bad now, OHHH boy... Hawks are gonna steam roll us.
January 25, 20178 yr comment_244930 Yeah just posted this in 51 thread. I know its to replace Toby but part of me wants to think it was Stu's position on 4th goal which while not his fault completely that guy was already being chased by a dman right? Edited January 25, 20178 yr by FrostyWinnipeg
January 25, 20178 yr Author comment_244934 Yeah, it needed it's on topic in my opinion. It's a recall. It's definitely to replace Toby if he can't go tho as Ken Wiebe on the twitter feed right there says that.
January 25, 20178 yr comment_244936 Wow. Strait is the 'best' option? He is terrible. What about Kichton? I didn't like that Czuczman in the preseason, but it looks like he's doing pretty well with the Moose. Stoykewych? I don't get it. Edited January 25, 20178 yr by BomberBall
January 25, 20178 yr comment_244941 It's probably because it's a road game. What happens if someone stubs his toe or comes down with a bad flu? I think he is just insurance. Our D depth stinks Chevy.
January 25, 20178 yr comment_244943 Winnipeg Jets defensive depth... 2011 Buff, Bogo, Enstrom, Oduya, Stuart, Hainsey, Postma, Clitsome, Kulda, Flood 2017 Buff, Trouba, Myers, Morrissey, Enstrom, Stuart, Postma, Chiarot, Melchiori, Strait I guess there's some progress... I guess. Nothing in the pipe for another 2-3 years though Edited January 25, 20178 yr by Floyd
January 25, 20178 yr Author comment_244950 Poolman and Niku look like they will be good players. Gotta start drafting more D men tho, Valimaki would be a guy I'd hope they look at this draft.

Given that we're essentially out of the playoffs anyway, I'd be fine with that.
January 25, 20178 yr Author comment_244959 Problem with Czuczman is he's on an AHL contract only... they'd have to sign him and then he'd have to clear waivers and theres a chance that perhaps he doesn't.
January 25, 20178 yr Author comment_244960 Just now, Floyd said: At this rate, we'll draft Liljegren. Given that we're essentially out of the playoffs anyway, I'd be fine with that. He's gonna be this year Chychrun, by that i mean someone is gonna get him later then they should.

January 25, 20178 yr comment_244986 1 minute ago, Floyd said: Like he'll go Jimmy Vesey on us? Yeah. Just a gut feeling. I believe he has until August to sign with the Jets then he will become a UFA.
January 25, 20178 yr comment_244988 I'm not surprised we would bring up Strait. We are down to our 10th defenceman... can't expect them to be pulling a superstar out of their butts. I'm not expecting much but don't think we have any better right now. Maybe Czuczman I guess but as mentioned he is not Jets property.
January 25, 20178 yr Author comment_245018 For the most part when college guys go the FA route it's to play closer to home. For Poolman the closest city to home for him is Winnipeg This is a guy who has come to all our Development camps... who has said he stayed at ND because 1. His dad is part of the staff and 2. His brother started playing there this year. He is not some bright lights big city kid... he's a prairie kid from Grand Forks. I think its 95 percent likely he signs here.

January 25, 20178 yr comment_245056 For the love of goodness, when is Myers back? Myers: 'Coach, I can't even skate'. Coach: 'I don't care.'

In our playoff year, around this time of year... the Jets were fielding a D core of Pardy, Harrison, Brouillette, Kellerby... and winning. Harrison or Pardy would have actually been an upgrade for this year's 'depth'

Byfuglien is our best defenceman so I know you're not referring to him. But hey, losing is awesome! We're number young! We're number young!
