Chevy, TNSE, July 1st UFA Frenzy and the Stanley Cup
During Chevy’s news conference today Chevy said some really interesting things and I will add what my thoughts that are in brackets here and there alright and you can listen to Chevy here:
Chevy’s News Conference today: http://jets.nhl.com/club/blogpost.htm?id=47061
Time 3:55 Chevy said:
“we knew who was going to go early and those things transpired and well you know where you’re going to go after thatâ€
(Jets will almost never over pay or offer crazy contract time to older UFA’s, it’s one of the Winnipeg Jet’s Commandments of not what to do ever, period.)
Time 5:47 Chevy was asked how would you describe the climate or the reception of over the last little bit and how you approached free agents I know it’s something we talk about each year:
Chevy said at 6:28 about UFA the Jets did talk to:
“and but what you do find out is when you sit down and talk and explain where we are at as an organization as long if there is not a specific reason why someone wants to go somewhere or someone doesn’t want to go somewhere um than they are receptive they are receptive to what’s going on here what’s transpiring ahh they certainly know the Dustin Byfuglien signing they know Blake Wheeler they know obviously our young guys in Trouba and Sheifele they know Nicolaj Ehlers and certainly they know Patrick Laine so um they they see those things they see the youth the plan that’s in place they know umm the that there is a plan in place that we been trying to methodically execute since the day that we got here so there is receptive to that but again when a player has a right to go to free agency they’ll they’ll choose to where they can go.â€
(The UFA’s see, know and really like the Winnipeg Jets Plan and want to be part of that plan but the Jets didn’t resign Ladd a UFA why? too much pay and too much contract time needed that is why Ladd was traded so again Jets will almost never over pay or offer crazy contract time to older UFA’s, it’s one of the Winnipeg Jet’s Commandments of not what to do ever.)
So some of you fellow HF Boards folks whished that Chevy could have or should have stepped up for (insert your UFA name here) but Chevy didn’t pick your guy so you’re glum.
Well I am not glum at all.
Take a real good look at the forest that makes up our NHL Jets instead of the individual UFA tree Chevy didn’t pick today.
TNSE and Chevy have earned my respect over the years but more importantly they have also earned my faith that they will never ever deviate to much far away from the original plan of building a new kind of NHL Team that will be the envy of every other NHL team in the league, mark my words.

We are so lucky to have a management group that will never throw out the baby with the bath water.
Thanks to TNSE and Chevy for it’s only a matter of a short time before they are proven right and we do win the Stanley Cup and have a team that will compete year in and year out for the Stanley Cup for a very, very long time!
Go Jets Go
