August 9, 20168 yr comment_214449 The majority of his contract is in pure bonuses not performance bonuses. This is the new rage to future proof players from lockouts and buyouts.
August 9, 20168 yr comment_214458 More like signing bonus. I think on July 1st of every year Ladd will get most of his money. So let's just say it's 5 million. He'd probably get 4 on July 1st. I think that's how his deal works
August 11, 20168 yr comment_214796 Send Stuart to the Moose today and Trouba will resign tomorrow. LOL just kidding I think?
August 12, 20168 yr comment_215110 It's not even about Stuart. It's about Trouba wanting a top 4 role and quite frankly... Buff Trouba. Enstrom Myers. Postma Morrissey is a Damn good d group. Trouba should be top 4. This isn't really about Stuart or Chevy for that matter. It's about Maurice. Maurice needs to stop with his love of the veterans. Pavelec. Stuart. Thorburn should not get that much time on the ice. It's Maurices biggest downfall as a coach. Relying on 3 guys who should easily be replaced by younger talent who are a part of the future

Relying on 3 guys who should easily be replaced by younger talent who are a part of the future I'd be a little worried if that's our 3rd pairing - don't get me wrong, better than Stu in the top 6, but still.. If I had to send a critique Chevy's way this offseason, it's the lack of additions to the blue line. Strait isn't a viable option for the big club IMO. Morrissey is unproven (so far) and Postma is a 27 yr old journeyman with all of 120 NHL games in 5 years. Hopefully Trouba is locked up & maybe more player movement happens - until then I don't think our D is good enough to get back to the playoffs. 17/18 feels more like our year...
August 12, 20168 yr Author comment_215156 Whether we make the playoffs depends on three things... Goaltending, special teams, how well the rookies (Laine, Connor, Morrissey?, Lemieux?) and younger players like Amia, Ehlers, and Dano? play. Not sure Dano starts with the team as he can still be sent down. Ehlers, Scheifele, Wheeler, Perreault, Little, Connor, Laine, Stafford, Lowry, Thorbs, Armia, Burmi and Matthias will probably start with the Jets. ESW Laine Little Staf Connor Perreault Armia Matthias Lowry Burmi Thorbs pressbox... unless of course they keep 2 extra forwards and only one extra D man. or something like that.
August 12, 20168 yr comment_215187 I dont expect to make the playoffs this year. Not this young of a team. Not with LHD &, goaltending short-comings. Postma/Morrissey? Aiiiee. Postma's got the O but lacking in D and at 26 he's only ahead of Cormier in terms of chances. Edited August 12, 20168 yr by FrostyWinnipeg
August 12, 20168 yr comment_215203 is Logan Stanley going back to junior? Or will he stick with the Moose?

So back to Windsor for him. I think Windsor hosts next year's Memorial Cup so he should get some good playoff games in.
August 12, 20168 yr comment_215290 Yeah, Trouba's days with Stu are over. The only issue would be if he really doesn't want to play LHD. And I doubt thats an issue.
August 13, 20168 yr comment_215385 When the Jets drafted Stanley they specifically said... 2 more years of junior then 1 year in the A at least. Don't think LHD is a huge issue. . It Will come down to the young guys the special teams and goaltending
September 4, 20168 yr Author comment_220246 Ehlers Scheifele Wheeler Little Staf Perreault Laine Mathias Burmi Lowry Armia Connor Thorbs will be the starting forwards...add Copp if they keep 14. Buff Trouba Myers Enstrom Chiarot Stuart Morrissey will be the starting D if they keep 4. Pavs and Helle for goalies. Dano is good enough but probably starts with the Moose.
September 4, 20168 yr comment_220256 Last couple years Jets have had 2D/1F as the extras so factor that into the thinking.
October 1, 20168 yr Author comment_227460 Connor is really making a case for staying up with the big team as is Morrissey and Tanev. Ehlers Scheif Wheeler Perreault Little Stafford Laine Matthias (injured) are locks to make the team. Lowry Armia Connor Thorbs Burmi Copp will probably make the team. Petan Dano Tanev Peluso and the rest will probably be sent down. Buff Enstrom Stuart Myers are locks. Morrissey Chiarot Postma likely stay with big team. The rest will probably go down as I think the Jets only carry 7 D men this year.
October 1, 20168 yr comment_227467 No need to rush any prospects, the only guys out of that pool that will start with the Jets are Laine and Morrissey. Everyone else can go back to the Moose or Junior, or course a trade or 2 may change things up.
October 1, 20168 yr comment_227499 Connor will make the team. Laine will. Morrissey will. Tanev might due to his hustle and PK ability. Right now I'd have Copp also. I don't think I see a place for Thor other than the press box Edited October 1, 20168 yr by Goalie

October 2, 20168 yr Author comment_227509 If Matthias is still injured at the start of the season, I would think Tanev stays up or maybe Petan. This is based on the few games they have played and I know nothing about practices so... lots can change by the opener. Hell, Trouba might sign!!!!!!!!!!! Seriously though, the Moose should be a lot better this year. Tanev, Petan, De Leo, Dano, Peluso, Thorbs (if I had my way), H, P, or H (one of the three goalies), Howden, Comrie and Lemieux who has had a tough break. What happens with Phillips? ECHL? or Tulsa or wherever? If Pavs were gone, he could back up Comrie on the farm.
