Am I missing something? The trade worked out to be Laine for Dubois and Roslovic for CBJ's 3rd round pick this year and we picked Danny Zhilkin. So for now the Roslo part of the trade is uber bad as he has 34g 45a for 79pts in 129 games. Danny got some catching up to do

Kind of tough to do a trade when you have non-performing assets that have to be moved versus having them performing. Edited July 14, 20222 yr by kelownabomberfan

July 15, 20222 yr comment_578282 I'm starting to believe the room issues have been exaggerated and that everyone but Dubois wants to be here Move out Dubois.

July 18, 20222 yr comment_579578 Jets resign Harkins...The Winnipeg Jets have signed restricted free agent forward to a two-year, $1.7 million contract, it was announced Saturday. The deal carries an average annual value of $850,000.
July 18, 20222 yr comment_579624 What a shitshow this Dubois situation has become. Wants what he wants didn't Chevy vette this guy before trading for this weirdo? Guy sounds like a child who wants what he wants. I guess he is going to sit out on us or his beloved Habs will make an offer,my hope it is over 8 million and we get 2 no 1 for us. These selfish millionaires are gonna kill small market teams...

These selfish millionaires are gonna kill small market teams... It would have to be a crazy high number for the Jets not to match. And he won't want it to be a long term contract to get locked into Winnipeg that long if the Jets do match. The Jets will be under cap pressure with the other signings they have to make, but the Canadians don't have a lot of cap space either.
July 18, 20222 yr comment_579627 I’m taking Nick Suzuki or nothing. Montreal has no other forwards we need. Perfetti should be able to contribute a lot more this year as well.

PLD talked to his dad a lot prior to coming here to find out about the city & organization and he was excited to come here. So if the city and organization aren't the problem, maybe the locker room is a bad as speculation would have it?

Why this is only coming out now? Guy had definite issues in Columbus and now this? Guy travels to Montreal draft? There is some issues with this guy and we are going to get screwed. It's almost like Dubois has this creepy man crush for the Habs....... Edited July 18, 20222 yr by bb1

It's almost like Dubois has this creepy man crush for the Habs....... We don't know how long the talk has been going on behind the scenes. There was obviously discussions going on beforehand if PLD went to the draft, expecting a deal to be done. I agree bailing on two consecutive teams is not a good look on him though.
July 18, 20222 yr Author comment_579643 Suzuki okay but a first round pick in 23 is also good. I still see MTL as a bad team. Plus a MTL offer sheet win would free up 6m for Kadri 😝
July 18, 20222 yr comment_579656 We better get something for Dubois or the Columbus trade looks like a hosing of great proportions ....Anything less than Suzuki and a high pick would be viewed as a total fail by our management...What the hell is going on in our dressing room, that's not being outed, IF that's the issue with PLD
July 19, 20222 yr comment_579712 Maybe it’s city more than dressing room. Of all the cities to spend a winter in while playing, where do you think Winnipeg ranks? Dead last across the board every year. And the only way to rectify that is overpaying. And with a hard cap, for every overpay you have to sacrifice salary elsewhere. Maybe drafting fewer Americans and more Canadians could help keep some locals here. Maybe not. Edited July 19, 20222 yr by TrueBlue4ever
July 19, 20222 yr comment_579715 I feel like we're spinning our tires. If our market is this undesirable, and we have no chance to even draft and develop a team, perhaps this was all a mistake.

How did we go from being one of the best teams - to being a place where players don't want to play?

I don't know that those two things are necessarily related. Being a top team for a season or two never really factored into the market being a more desirable place for players. Winnipeg consistently ranks amongst the least desirable locations for players, be it PA polling or trade lists.
