the players are texting with Byfuglien because they care about him and think he is better off playing hockey. Its a work in progress...
I call BS, Ek. Not a single player has ever gone on record saying anything along the lines of "x player should come back because it's better for your life if you play hockey than retire because of nagging injury"
Get real, guy. |

After just 2 games the Jets will not be trading with those 3 teams as they don't have a d-man worth Ehlers or Lainen which is what posters will want from Winnipeg. Risto is not worth either of them except in the minds of Buff fans so don't even post trades with him part of it. Also the Jets don't need any 5/6 d-men as that won't improve their situation. I think if the Jets D is still a problem into November and Buff isn't back with the team they will look to making a move, but it's highly unlikely it will involve any of Eks 3 fantasy teams. |

Are you high? What exactly do you think a player thatās broke 60 points once in his career so far is worth? Last year he had a whopping 37 points in 62 games. Let me ask you this what would you trade us for Brock Nelson or even better what exactly do you think you would get in a trade for Ehlers? |

I think he got off track trying to say Ristolainen sucks and the Jets shouldnāt want him period, but especially not for the price tag.
Ehlers was hurt for a big chunk last year, and played hurt when he came back yet still led all Jets with points per ice time, while not playing on top line or top power play.
He leads all our forwards in anylitics and is our best play driver.
This is why we get defensive of Ehlers, he is very very good |

WPG looks better than I expected but without Big Buff - it is going to be tough to make it all the way and it was only one year ago that this was EXACTLY their expectation.
Buff has to do what is good for him. His teammates should leave him alone and not pressure him to come back.
With that said, as a Flyers fan - it was BRUTAL to lose Pronger. It was a loss that didn't get better for a long time (yet) and Big Buff will likely be the same kind of loss for WPG if he hangs up the skates.
I would warn about a rash trade for D. Remember Luke Schenn for JVR? Ouch. Yes, we got JVR back but there is no = between those two players. One gets it done and the other doesn't in the NHL but D is always more valuable than O. We know this.

It's mostly a case of home town fans, looking at their own team with rose coloured glasses.
The most glaring question is when is Ehlers going to get first line power play time? So far this season, he's shown that he's miles ahead of both Laine and Connor. |

I wonder if Pittsburgh got the message that d is more important than offence when they won their last two championship teams. Those d-corps were brutal! |

adding a 5/6 dman would be an improvement over 4-5 of the current dmen. |

Iām not saying heās not I would love to have him on the islanders but heās a player that exceeded 60 points as a winger once in his albeit young career. Fandom does not up a players value. Jets fans calling Pulock a 5/6 defenseman is almost as funny as Sabreās fans thinking Ristolainen is a first pairing defenseman on any real team in the NHL. |

Me saying ājets fansā doesnāt necessarily lump in the entire fanbase. |

Personally I've always been down on Risto, but there is no denying he looked great the last two games under a new coach. While I would still shop him, his value is so low at the moment, and I can see the sabres just deciding with every additional win not to mess with a good thing.
Besides, the sabres have 4 defensemen on IR or injured so they can't really make a deal until Montour comes back. |
