@WPGMurat I also like the fact that this opens up the window of options for different teams vying for Hellubuck. Personally I hope he stays but this does soften the blow and allow them to make a deal for needed help that we CAN'T get in free agent signings.
@WPGMurat Extremely good pickup for us. I always wondered what skinner would look like after our goalie whisperer coaches could do to help him round out his game. He always seemed so close and then something would fall apart. Having said that, he's never had a solid D team in front of him
@WPGMurat I'd love to see it. I think trouba would force the mean side of Stanley to come out more often than he shows. I think when Stanley is at his most intense he's also at his most focused. Trouba plays intense all the time. That will always stir the pot and anyone not there will be.
@JetsAtNoon you were absolutely right yesterday when you said that listeners were sick of the hellubuck trade talk. He didn't ASK for a trade. Only a idiot would want to trade one of, if not the best goalie in the world, before all options and opportunities have been exhausted!!!
@nielsonTSN1260 To me this is a completely understandable decision. As a Jet's fan of course I would like to see shief's recognized but this is an international training ground tournament. This is where you get the Celebrini and other young guys to get some experience as players and leaders.
@680CJOB@JimTothSports you definitely take the best player available. Once you have that you can decide amongst all players and prospects who you're willing to package up for your 2nd line centre. No guarantee your pick will ever make 2nd line centre.
@JimTothSports re Patrick Liane. Absolutely not interested. He can't stay healthy. Physically or otherwise. Extremely controversial and divisive in the dressing room. Floor unknowingly low. Ceiling is potentially high but extremely unlikely and at what cost to the dressing room.
@JimTothSports re Elias Peterson. I would be pro this trade as long as the return isn't too significant OR a significant salary retention. To me, pro, he's got a decent floor but extremely high potential. Obvious con, salary considering last few yrs production.
@mnwild@FriedgeHNIC@680CJOB. A wpg jet fan here. I'm so very sorry and devastated for Jessi, her kids, her husband, all family, friends, colleagues and the Minnesota wild family. My heart breaks for you all.

@WPGMurat I've always been a Stan supporter, even when it wasn't cool. In many ways I feel this is a huge mistake but I do get it. The shit of it is now we're going to start looking for that big D man that can be physical, drop the gloves from time to time, be defensively responsible. π€¦ββοΈπ€·ββοΈ
@MarkusCross97@jpolly22 If you look at him as the second coming of Zedano Chara you will be disappointed. If you look at him as an average to strong 3rd pairing D man with the ability to move up the lineup to be a solid fill in I think you'll be happy. He could possibly work his way into solid sec pair
