Fun fact: Jets were offered Crouse and Florida 1st for Ladd... said no. 

At the 2016 draft b4 trading pick 22 and 36 to Philly for pick 18 and the 3rd Rd pick... Florida offered Crouse for pick 22. Jets said No again. 

 

Crouse probably not as good as some think he will be. Pretty average player. Probably 3rd liner at best 

 

 

not sure how much of the above actually happened, but its no surprise the Jets turned down the offer for 22.  They had tunnel vision for Stanley.

All of it happened. Jets have no interest in Crouse. 

Scott Gomez is calling it a career. The two-time Stanley Cup winner told Doyle Woody of the Alaska Daily News that he's retiring after 16 National Hockey League seasons.

The Jets will probably go 4-4-1 if nothing on the D changes so Vegas will get a choice of Lowry, Armia, Dano, Stuart, Chiarot, etc... I am guessing they take Dano or Lowry.

And so it likely will be Desert Hawks, Red Hawks, Nighthawks, Desert Knights, Silver Knights or Golden Knights. We think.

And the Black Hawks are okay with that?  I think he wanted Black Knights but the push back made him change it to a different "Knights".  Should have just gone with Black Knights.  Or Knight Riders.  Or Aces.  Apparently the NHL rejected anything gambling related.  In this day of gender equality how about Las Vegas Showgirls? ;-)

Gonna need another 17+ on the farm once they get one.

 

How bout the Vegas Vaudevillians

Nice deal.  He is a legit star and a great young piece to build around.

Florida definitely building something down there. Some really good pieces...

Huberdeau signs for 6 years $35.4M.  $5.9M cap hit.

Florida going for it.. they basically have no cap space left anymore tho 

Bolland for 5.5m for 3 years and Yandle for 6.35m for 7 years???????

Reimer at 3.4m for 5 years to back up Luongo???

 

wow...

wow...

Bolland was traded to Arizona and probably wont play ever again

Still, 3.4m for a back up goalie?

Yandle for 7 years at 6.35m?

Yandle got the going rate, i would never have given him that contract , Reimer could become the starting goalie by the half way point of the season.

Luongo is getting over 4.5m.

Luongos contract is even worse pays him till 42 years old definitely buy out probability 

Surprised he got more than Scheif

??? Didn't he average 5.9m?

Ya, Scheifele is getting 6.125M and Huberdeau 5.9M

Scheifs deal bought more ufa years I believe do that's the difference really. Huberdeau played on his elc now bridge... starting next year it's his new deal. There was no bridge with scheif plus 1st line center vs 1st line winger. It's a good deal for Florida tho
