The best part about preparing for the draft is reading all about these guys and now I can’t wait to see who the Jets take on Friday.......If we keep the pick
- Ross77


I sure hope we keep the pick or do something decent with it. I like Apples and Demelo, but let the Kracken pick one or the other as if they pick DD, hopefully this will free up some cap space for a big splash like Hamilton.

If they select Apples, then hopefully Ves can get a regular shift, or Gus. I just hope Chevy doesn't go out and sign the 4th line retreads again.

Got to believe, when you say it won't be popular here, that it is a deal that involves Heinola, Copp or Pionk. Just my hunch though from what you said.

You would think when Ross says he will let us know by Saturday - that it involves a first round draft pick (Friday night).

This damn detective work!

there will be a waive of moves made around the league post expansion when the trade freeze is lifted. I have a feeling and a source telling me about one potential Jets move I know I will loathe and hate with a passion if it comes to fruition. I am already praying each night it doesn't happen. sorry to be open ended but that's all I will say.

Are they signing Cody Ceci?

What if its Erik Johnson? He has been left exposed for the expansion draft. Could be a deal with Seattle to take Erik to only trade him to Winnipeg for the Jets first round pick? After getting Erik, they sign Gabriel Landeskog and Dougie Hamilton. Holy smokes would that not be some crazy weekend.

33 year old Erik Johnson for a 1st?

That would be grounds for termination

If Kraken took Tanev I could live with him back here

Or maybe a Cal Foote? I have no idea, don't ever remember seeing Foote play. All I know is he's big and rugged, shoots RH and comes from a hockey family. Not much!

I'm just grasping - speculation is fun!

What if they also sign Jack Johnson. Together Jack Johnson and Erik Johnson could form the Johnson & Johnson defensive pair. They could also provide for a great marketing for the Johnson & Johnson vaccine saying that not only can they defend against other teams, but they also provide great defense against Covid-19.

But will the Kraken take Carey Price? That is the $10M $ question!

Price, Vanicek (spelling) and Kahkonen - pretty set in net!

I think they will! They want a name to market. What bigger name who is still a quality tender when healthy. If not healthy - LTIR!

I floated the idea when Montreal picked up Allen that Price would be left exposed for Seattle. Price gets close to home, is face of franchise, quality veteran goalie. Montreal gets the opportunity to do a vet a solid, gains cap space and flexibility to move in another direction. Its going to happen, medical be damned - book it.

I'm going to make a prediction to what Ross is saying the Jets might do that he's claiming will be a bad move, my guess is they might trade their 1st round pick in this upcoming draft to Seattle so they won't take either DeMelo or Appleton in exchange for future considerations (which is usually nothing!), maybe if there has to be a selection by Seattle it'll be Niku or Harkins, so the Jets 2021 1st round pick, Niku(or Harkins) and expansion draft considerations(which is not taking DeMelo or Appleton) to Seattle for future considerations(nothing).

Idk, just a guess, will be an interesting few weeks in the NHL, hopefully Chevy doesn't do anything stupid!!.. Lol

With Risto having only one more year to UFA can see why this would be unpopular. Extremely unpopular!

Yes, guess that's possible, but hope not. But unpopular move, like Ross says, at least in this corner.

Trade our 1st and we got far less ammunition to trade for that stud that we need on the b-line, that rugged RD 1st pairing stud. We'd look a lot like last year - don't see a major pending UFA coming this way. Need to deal!

Ross, good move for taking Pastujov. I voted for ya! Rated anywhere from 22-56, but moving on up the draft charts quickly. USDP - might be a decent chance he is our pick - if we still have one.
