BEING REALISTIC: Setting TANKING Trade Goals For The Winnipeg Jets

The Winnipeg Jets are rolling along in their quest for a top NHL draft pick, but trade rumors continue to swirl around the team. What, exactly, do the Jets intend to accomplish? Are there any players out there Winnipeg should actually be investing in, or should the Jets become cap space middlemen? What trade timelines make the most sense for Winnipeg to pursue? Will Luke Schenn be the first trade domino to fall?

  2. I say we do a fire sale, San Jose Sharks type rebuild and trade everyone (except Schifele, & Vilardi) for picks and depth. Logan Mailloux, Cody Glass, Jesper Kotkaniemi & Mackenzie Blackwood would be fantastic depth pieces to trade for. We also keep tanking to increase our chances to draft Gavin McKenna this year and maybe tank next year too for Landon Dupont.

  3. Luke apparently hasn’t asked to be moved. His kids are in school here and play hockey here. I believe the jets have respectfully asked him if he’d like to move to a contender if the possibility arises which they should do and get whatever they can in order to stick the shelves with draft capital

  6. The last 2 head coaches before Arniel weren’t fired, they quit. And both are back coaching. I didn’t love Bones but what is going on here?? Is the Winnipeg HC position just a figurehead?

  7. Bowness being hired I'm sure it's similar to Jets just for a year and he will retire.
    They probably want the room/culture to change they have some pieces are probably tired selling off being mid. The jackets have been bad even when I was little at least sabres had hasek/drury/made a run before.

    Jenner similar to Lowry,Werenski/Morrissey they have youth Fantilli,Sillinger,Mataychuk,Johnson I believe they are hoping Rick can come in and fix the team.

    It is weird coaches in wpg say they are done then come back few months later in Maurice and Bowness.

  8. Tbh, only the connors, sheiffele, vilardi and lowry are my untouchables. For the right price, everybody else should be avaliable. I just want us to focus on being younger again. Accept the tank year already and just do a heavy retool. This team should still be good to contend for the next 3 years at least.
