Lucas Johansen - LHD - 68 games - 40 pts, +23 (WHL) Kale Clague - LHD - 48 games, 40 pts, -8 (WHL) Stanley - 35 games, 17 pts, +2 (OHL) What does the Plus Minus have to do with anything? I don't really get the point of this post besides? what? I mean, are points the be all and end all of D men playing in Junior? Stanley was improving until he got hurt, He's a project, he's a few years away still if ever, Johansen and Clague aren't exactly sure fire picks either. I didn't like the pick but i'm not sure what posting points and plus minus really proves

March 30, 20178 yr comment_256254 Just now, FrostyWinnipeg said: Time to start the Myers watch? LOL. Seriously? C'mon man. Poolman is a project, that appears to be 3rd D pair money for sure that he signed for but... I highly doubt Myers moves anytime soon...Quit over rating our prospects, Poolman is good but he's at best maybe a 2nd pairing guy in the future but in reality, hopefully an improvement on Postma. He can also play the Left side so keep that in mind.
March 30, 20178 yr comment_256257 Lawless Twitter... Poolman and Jets agree on a one-year ELC for $1.775 million (salary and bonuses). Contract starts next year. Will be a Group 2 free agent after his one-year ELC expires (RFA with arb rights). AHL salary will be with $70,000.

As goalie said, I'd expect him to pencil in at the 3LHD spot. Morrissey-Trouba Toby-Buff Poolman-Myers If Huddy doesnt screw it up, that could be a solid D corp.
March 30, 20178 yr comment_256266 ELC contracts are 925k. No choice. Max signing bonus is 10%. The rest has to be in performance bonuses.

Plus minus doesn't really mean much at all... unless its really an outlier like +23 Points means a lot in the lower leagues... if you're not scoring there, you really have zero hope of making the NHL
March 30, 20178 yr comment_256276 Thats what I meant, he didnt sign for the minimum. Ofcourse, he had some leverage. But hopefully the salary represents the projected talent level.

Strait sent back to the Moose today so that should tell you what they think of him. Melchiori is a gongshow... the play dies on his stick every shift. He's awful.

Melchiori is a gongshow... the play dies on his stick every shift. He's awful. Not defending their puck handling or skating skills at all. Buff's recent 'mistakes' are because he tries to do everything because he has no faith in Melchiori... They are plugs... but plugs that outmuscle guys in front of our net. Jets are still a .500 team with Enstrom or Melchiori as your #4 D. That's disturbing.
March 30, 20178 yr comment_256305 7 minutes ago, The Unknown Poster said: Toby isnt terrible I'm not a Toby hater... but this season is by far his worst for whatever reason. He's taking one bad stick penalty a game and getting beaten to the puck and in the corners. The fact that Melchiori is not a recognizable drop off is not good. He has never had any chemistry with Buff... I'd re-sign him at 3 mill for two years as our third pairing after next season Morrissey-Trouba Chiarot-Buff Enstrom-Myers (Poolman-Postma)
March 30, 20178 yr comment_256309 Toby was playing well until leaving the team to deal with a family illness. He wasnt the same when he got back. And obviously been hampered by injuries (he had knee surgery today). The days of him being #1 are over. But I'd feel good about him as #3/4.
