TSN panel speculating that the Jets move Hutchison today, possibly to Montreal to back up Price.  Jets are apparently looking for 3rd liner and LHD (I hate that term so much).

Maybe he could borrow your crystal ball.

 

That's not a prediction, its common sense.

Some rumors out there linking Jets to Edmonton in a Trouba/RNH deal.  And ofcourse linked to Yak also.  If Chevy ends up with the Oilers 1st and keeps our 1st, I might make love to a photo of the GM tonight.

 

And I say that because I know it wont happen.

Zero chance Edmonton deals their first round pick in any deal.

Oilers would deal the 1st for a stud D, I think.....but I'm not sure that deal is out there, even in June/July. And any deal for RNH/Hall/Ebs, happens in the summer...not today.

Tradecentre has been awfully quiet... not even any rumours being circulated.

As for Yakupov...  I'd trade Burmistrov & Stuart for him and nothing else lol.    His value is ultra low. 

 

 

I may have overheard that another team claimed Pardy off waivers... thought I heard Edmonton but the office was kind of loud at the time.

 

Edmonton gets the D-man they they always needed!  Sort of a weird claim.  He's a UFA so whats the point...

To fill spots for guys being sent down for ahl playoffs

Trouba isn't being traded lol. 

 

LTIR?  What's with all of these acronyms?

Its funny watching TSN - they just keep recycling the same stuff over and over again as there has been literally nothing happening today.  Kind of like the let-down during "Free Agent Frenzy" back on July 1st.

Long Term Injury Reserve?

Steen, Elliot, Ott are all out. Think Pietrangelo is back now...

No but people have routinely discussed not signing Stemp as a failure of management.  As you said, bottom six.  A guy who NO ONE signed until NJ offered a try out.  And he wouldnt have scored 20 goals in our bottom six.  I mean sure, if Chevy DOES have a crystal ball whereby he can see how guys will perform during the year, then its a failure to sign someone he knew would do well.  But assuming he doesnt, Stemp is, was and will always be irrelevant to the Jets.

He scored 6 goals in 18 games last year for us as a bottom 6 player.

Figure out the math for what that translates to over an 82 game season.

Done with the Stempniak talk. He makes no difference to a team who is tied for 3rd last in the league 

Do I want Stempy back? No, that ship has sailed.

Speaking of sailing. Pardy is on to EDM.

Postma you're next.

People actually take the day off work for this trade deadline crap. Lol. 1 trade so far involving basically 2 nobodies. The biggest news is waiver pick ups. 

Kris Russell who has similar fancy stats as mark Stuart and a washed up Dan hamhuis are the big deals today maybe? Man. What a joke this stuff is. 

Nobody ever claimed Stempniak was a saviour... but what was missing this year was Chevy's annual waiver wire or low cost signing - Perrault, Stemp, Santarelli, etc... 

Jets got bit by lack of depth this year - then again, if we're in the playoff race, probably lose Ladd for nothing...  maybe this was the plan

Stemp was so good for the Jets last year that exactly ZERO teams wanted to sign him.  'Nuff said.

Perhaps the NHL should have a roster freeze for a week before deadline day!  No one wants to wait til the last second anymore...

Leafs just called up half the farm.  The Leaf tank is on!!

Im surprised.  Some of those kids are pretty good.  i figured they'd leave the good kids on the farm in case they accidentally win a game or two.
