Thread: Make Winnipeg Great Again
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>WPGSK</b></div><div>Nino came out and said he is happy to be in Winnipeg and playing. He plays the right way. He's a role model for the younger Jets and plays in the top 6. WPG needs a guy like that for as long as possible to set the right mood and play style for the dressing room. He's far more valuable to Winnipeg than points or anything else.

The JETS need a HUGE culture shift and guys like Nino, Namestikov, Lowry, Ehlers and Morrissey embody that. They play hard, say the right things, etc.</div></div>

Ever consider that perhaps the reason guys like Namestikov stick around is because they're offered term? They don't like Winnipeg, it's just that Vlad has played on literally 8 teams in 6.5 years. He likely would play in Tijuana if they offered him 2 years, guy is just sick of moving.

Thread: Depressed Flames Fan
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>benjgc</b></div><div>I did! And your D corps would have been an exponential improvement on what Columbus was able to run out there night after night.

I'll put it this way: remember Erik Gudbranson, the D you were ecstatic to see sign elsewhere at $4M AAV for 4 years? He had the 2nd-most minutes of any of our defensemen, and logged a -24 +/-. Andrew Peeke led our team in minutes... and he had a -41, good enough for (checks notes) worst in the league.

Our best defenseman by +/- among those who played at least 30 games was Adam Boqvist, at -12.

Zach Werenski, easily our best D on talent, played all of 13 games.

Please don't patronize me about CBJ's defense.</div></div>

My issue wasn't with the personnel in Calgary's core, rather the systematic errors which led to an abnormal amount of high danger chances.
