The Winnipeg Jets Need to Fire Kevin Cheveldayoff

21 comments

1. confidence in the head office is nearing 0

2. been saying this for yrs

3. We need to meet in the boardroom…and someone will be fired.

4. Hasnt answered a question in 15 years, amazing

5. Chipman has hung on to dedication far too long. He cannot make the big move to get another GM to steer the team in the right direction. I rather see them tank at this point. They need high draft picks to bring in new talent and speed

6. He never should have been hired. He knows NOTHING about building a winning roster. He's a politician that knows how to deal with contracts. That's all. Stan Bowman built the Hawks, NOT Chevy. So many mistakes. Too many to number. I've been saying he should have never been named the GM and so few agreed.

7. I feel like the jets can get hot again. Just need some younger players, younger base + veteran core is a great combo and hopefully they achieve it.

8. Kevin Cheveldayoff been a Great GM, Jets would be stupid to fire him.

9. The thing that’s not talked about enough, is that we have two of the better leaders in the league in Lowry and Toews. And you’re telling me even with above average leadership, we can’t steer this group in the right direction? Somethings not right and with Scheifele snubbed from the Olympic roster and even the roster reserve spots, it tells me there’s a lot more to this story

10. There is no fight in this team. I've coached 12 year olds with more grit. There is no flow to there game. They have no system. Schenn looks like he's a hundred years old. Perfetti should be in the press box. where the Jets put him 2 years ago in the playoffs. Iafollo, Niederreiter, and Namestnikov look totally disinterested, and should be benched. And what is Cheveldayoff's response? NOTHING. He's not making any changes. So why do we need him? Let's get a GM who finds players with grit and toughness, instead of lightweights who want no part of the rough going, and who lose every one on one battle for the puck. And Arniel has clearly lost the room, so he has to go too.

11. I find myself confused by the lack of trust in guys like Salo/Chibi/Lambo…but all the trust in guys proving they aren't NHL regulars anymore like Toews/Nyquist/Schenn.

12. Fire Chevy. If he had any dignity he would resign. What a mess. It won't improve in the near future. Fire him

13. That lowry contract shoulda been the nail in the coffin

14. I don’t know why we would keep giving aging players huge contracts, when they can no longer play hockey. We are now the oldest team in the league. Get rid of everyone except for Sheifle, Hellebuck, Connor, Vilardi and Mourrisey. Otherwise I feel we should replace the rest with moose players.

15. W video. Eventually change has to happen. If a championship is the goal. He's has 2 teams that's had the talent. But hasn't gotten it done

16. ROTFL the only fan who has any say is the owner and you want him to shut up because he doesn't know hockey like you know hockey

17. Only one Top 10 draft pick since Laine(Perfetti), all mid-late 1st round picks and so far none have worked while Buffalo, San Jose and Chicago have stockpiled high-end talent. We need to draft some skilled young players before our aging core are out the door and I doubt Perfetti or any current prospects are good enough to top line this team in 5 years.
    Being a middle-of-the-road team for a decade has crippled this team's future. Finish last and draft TALENT.

18. Chippy's meddling is the sole reason for the Jets being where they are

19. I agree that presser was awful. He gave garbage answers. No explanations. The team has gone from #1 to DEAD LAST. He needs to show that, at a minimum, he is taking this seriously. He failed. Would I fire him for that? No.

20. Being able to disagree with you is awesome ! It’s called freedom of speech. It’s idiots that take sports personal that are the problem

21. 1:22 the smile tells it all 😂
