    As good as the Jets are right now, the idea of adding at the deadline is one thing but getting Trouba and Lowry back would essentially be the two best "additions" they could make this time of year.

    Money well spent considering he was a big part of a solid D corp that helped get the team where it is now.  If he has a long term injury, they can move the money to LTIR moving forward and insurance k

Is that his ceiling for his pro career or just looking at it as breaking into the league as a rookie?  

His cieling was always projected as a really good 4th liner...and maybe a 3rd liner if he over-achieved.  The hope is he's not just an interchangeable 4th liner but a really effective one.

If he's like his old man he'll grind all year on the third line not doing much and then get 30 pts in the playoffs. Claude always had that extra playoff gear. Like John Druce John Tonelli and Dougie Risebrough.

With all due respect to John Druce, he doesn't belong in the same category as Claude Lemieux. Druce only had that one big playoff run.

The Big Show guys were talking about Hutch this morning too.  They make a good point that Neimi sucks and maybe the Pens are looking for a back up too.

really I didn't think they would be so desperate that they would want a jet....oh wait I forgot Tanner signed with them after season 1

 

what's the Pens record right now again?

I could swear we were in OT at least once.....maybe I'm thinking of something else

Confusing OUAT with OT

 

Minnesota Wild forward Zach Parise is expected to miss eight-to-ten weeks after undergoing surgery on his back. The Wild announced Parise underwent successful microdisectomy surgery on Tuesday.

Did they make the point that Hutch sucks also and isnt really an upgrade on Niemi at all? 

Im not sure its that strong a point.  Although their stats are very similar.   Hutch is a lot younger and might still be seen as a reclamation project.  He was better last year than Niemi. 

I havent investigated other back up goalie options.  But I'd suspect Hutch would be on most teams list of potential back up or #3 goalies.

The Florida Panthers have claimed goaltender Antti Niemi off of waivers.
