Had to be done. It’s been a hard road for working in Winnipeg. Jets aren’t desirable to play for so need to try twice as hard as competing teams to entice high value players
Thanks again Gio! Loving the content bud. At work now on break tuning in. Keep it up, looking forward to the prospect reports 🤪
WASH is about to put Backstrom ($9.2 x 2) on LTIR, Wheeler would perfectly fit not just filling cap space but also his age. Which matches the teams leadership age of OVI (36) and Backstrom (34). Problem lies because it’s 2 years, what happens if/when Backstrom and his $9.2m returns which runs into the year after. For this year, they have about $9 mil. Need to re-sign Samsonov and a backup. Which will take up $7(?)m of the $9m. Leaving $2m for next year. Maybe WASH has a plan for next year cap space.
Guess you didn’t see PLD has basically said he’s leaving Winnipeg
Don't want him in Vancouver, too old and was a part of the Laine controversy
I appreciate the upload frequency
kyle connor to vancouver plz so underrated
Trade him to Philly for JvR and a pick
