Perf is scratched tonight

Guy played well last game. Not sure taking out a skill guy is a smart move honestly.

Talking this thru, I could trade away a player to another team after the trade deadline but write in the agreement that this player will start employment with his new team in the off season (deal is null and void if said player incurs an injury between now and then) but is still under contract with us till the end of this season (i.e., still playing for us this year and post season)? 

 

Why make the trade at all in season then? Just wait until after.

JMO, but with Vilardi out for a while, I would keep Perfetti in but move him to the second line to spark him hopefully. Run Ehlers-Scheifele-Connor as 1, Perfetti-Monahan-Toffoli 2, the usual 3rd line of Nino-Lowry-Appleton, and put Iafallo on with Barron and Namestnikov with Kupari or Gus as the back-up there. We will need more scoring, and Perfetti is better in that role than 4th line grinder/energy guy. Iafallo is more versatile (as is Namestnikov) and could provide a positive edge on the bottom 4. Just my random thoughts, and I am loathe to question a coach of Bones’ tenure and success. Nice to have these depth options though.

I think 

Connor Scheifele Perfetti 

Ehlers Monahan Toffoli. 

 Iafallo Lowry Nino 

Barron names apples. 
 

because then u getting the 2nd line some time to find chemistry. Gabe comes back. He takes fetts spot. Fetts either scratched or moved to 4th line and apples or Baron sits. I’d be trying hard right now to put together as many lines as possible that will work in playoffs. 
 

Connor Scheifele Vilardi 

Ehlers Mony Toff 

 

that’s the top 6 when everyone healthy.

Money, tickets & write-off's to charity will be involved.

If there's not already, there should be a stat for high, medium and low quality shots that has nothing to do specifically with Ehlers, just a thought as I read this.

Rutger McGroarty's UofMichigan is out of the Frozen Four.

He's free to sign with Jets 😀

Or go back to UofMichigan for another year and headlines the 2025 draft 🤬

Says he has a great relationship with the Jets including a lot of respect for management. Not sure how you read that he is not signing with the Jets eventually?

It's the Winnipeg born and bred that gives me a psychological advantage

On a positive note...

Despite decline in ticket sales, the Winnipeg Jets have never lost money, True North says.

I'm torn here and I know it's probably for conditioning but I'm surprised they didn't sit Vilardi.

In case anyone was wondering Patrice Cormier's team, Eisbaren Berlin, is in the finals of the Deutsche Eishockey Liga, playing against the Fischtown Pinguins, who is the team that Jake Virtanen ended up on.
