I love honesty on this site. While Short term defense is a need, long term should be locked down.
We also have knazko and svozil plus blankenburg who are all under 25.
Have a great weekend!

Yeah, and render the draft capital as interactive components as a result of that. I made a suggestion for ACGM's to expand and support the rosters of AHL and development leagues teams, and having them all interwoven would support the notion of having multi-year projected NHL ACGM's.

Thread: Recall Holloway Skinner and demote Smith

I don't think Holloway is ready. Last I heard he still had some pain in his wrist. I'd like to see him at 100% for a few weeks (say, 10 games) in AHL before recalling him.

holloway hasn't found his game yet. He doesnt deserve a recall.

This is mostly a plan I can get fully behind. Skinner has to be the guy going down the stretch.

Thread: They Need Nemec

If we continue to play the way we are then win a lottery pick, 100% we will take Nemec.

I do agree, he is exactly what we need. A true No. 1 right-shot defenseman who plays a well-rounded game. If the draft were to happen now, Winnipeg would have to make a trade to select him. I currently have Nemec at 6th in my custom draft rankings but we will see what happens.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>GMs</b></div><div>Nemec is going top 5 doubt WPG draft that high</div></div>

If Dave Lowry maintains his 0.429 points percentage, Jets would end the season 9th from the bottom. A new voice hasn't improved the team.

TSN has Nemec as #9 on their draft rankings, but who knows where things end up.

Thread: They Need Nemec

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>GMs</b></div><div>Nemec is going top 5 doubt WPG draft that high</div></div>

Yeah, but he really is what Winnipeg does need most.

Other than that. Given the field around him, Nemec could realistically go anywhere in the top ten imo. While a top 5 pick isn't going to happen. If the Jets season continues to go down the toilet for the rest of the year, it's more than possible he could be there for them if they wind up having a pick in the 6-10 range.

That said, I don't see him getting past Philly. Who's currently in the 6th overall slot right now.

Not pointless at all. But doubt if NJ wants Barrie and his contract.

I haven’t seen much of Barrie, but seems like reasonable offer to me. Reilly Walsh is probably the biggest reason to say no.

Thread: Load up one line and pray

I mean if there was ever a time to see what Benson and Marody were made of, now's the absolutely perfect time. Put the younger AHL skill guys on skill lines tonight and see what you've got bubbling underneath.

Foegele - McDavid - Yamamoto
Benson - Draisaitl - Marody
Perlini - Sceviour - Kassian
Griffith - Ryan - Turris

Not sure I'd want Koekkoek playing with walkabout Barrie. Keep Wild Billy Lagesson there and let Slater have the steadier partner for his first game back.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>aadoyle</b></div><div>No it does. Getting that 8th year is a weapon in this modern age. Either pay up or deal with it. That 8th year was worth more than a 6th. Holland could have had an extra year of Hyman over a guy like Bourgault but chose otherwise. Oh well for him

<img class="for_img" src="https://miro.medium.com/max/1400/0*Ug7we6Mg06KfpHX2" alt="0*Ug7we6Mg06KfpHX2"></div></div>

Are you suggesting the 8th year for Hyman should have cost a 1st round pick?? Because that's ludicrous. Bourgault is leading the QMJHL in scoring this year so far and looks a lot better than that chart might suggest.

Fantastic talent. 1st overall in the OHL Import Draft but 180th overall in the NHL draft... 14, 10-8-18 +4 in the OHL as an 18-year-old. Great skater, creative, great shot, 6'2 - this guy has all the tools to be an NHLer in 2-3 years.

Great late draft find!
