That's an extensive survey. It will be interesting to see the results (so article 2/10 for me this month, I guess).

 

[Hank Chinaski]

The Sun should really do a better job constructing these poll questions. But it's the Sun.

 

[Evil Little]

What the **** does Keep, Cut, or Give Him a Raise even mean?

 

[JC Numminen]

What the **** does Keep, Cut, or Give Him a Raise even mean?

Yeah, I wasn't sure completely either. Was assuming "raise" meant if they were coming up to UFA/RFA. At least that's how I did it. Scheifele, Trouba got raises ect.

Needed to be a trade option. Kind of wanted to put that for Staff instead of keep, but oh well.

 

[TheDeuce]

"Which UFA should the Jets sign?"


Well I went with Stamkos but that's kind of a silly question.

I kinda just changed to to 'Okay', 'Bad', 'Good'.

You're right that Stafford was not worthy of cutting, keeping, or giving a raise to.

"Which UFA should the Jets sign?"


Well I went with Stamkos but that's kind of a silly question.

I would've gladly taken 'none of the above' or 'Ladd at $5mx4'.

I went with Perron, expecting him to be the cheapest option.

I went with Reimer. If the Jets need a decent goalie to "mentor" Helle... might as well be a goalie with a decent SV%

Ya, I wish none was an option

 

[ennsjd07]

None would definitely suffice.

 

[raideralex99]

Actually they don't have to do too much.
Fired all the coaches except Maurice.
Cut Pavs, Stuart and Thor.
Sign a couple of cheap vets.

 

[sipowicz]

Kept Helly, Little, Schief, Wheeler, Ehlers, Buff and Meyers, no fooling around rest of the players, coaches and management GONE!

No half measures!

I took 'cut' to mean move by whatever means so I cut Stafford (traded). Also 'cut' Pav (bought out). 'Give a raise' I took as meaning 'keep with extra enthusiasm' since we can only give raises to those who are eligible for extension/renewal.

 

[BigZ65]

What the **** does Keep, Cut, or Give Him a Raise even mean?

Means they cut and pasted the Jets questions into the template they made for the Bombers.

Winner!

Its so simple it might just work. I can't really disagree with you.

Probably correct too.

I selected Loui Eriksson. Stamkos wasn't even remotely realistic and I hated a lot of the other options.

Yeah, I wasn't sure completely either. Was assuming "raise" meant if they were coming up to UFA/RFA. At least that's how I did it. Scheifele, Trouba got raises ect.

I just mentioned trading Myers for a LHD in the extra comments at the end, but yes... this would have been nice.

And the results of the poll...

[Koonta]

Would rather they just have two options

keep or get rid of.

the 3rd option of giving a raise is stupid and just muddies the water.

A quote from that poll:

"How anyone can blame goaltending after watching this team for 5 years is crazy. Save percentage is a team stat."

LOLWUT? GAA is a team stat - the goalie owns their SV%.

 

[Aavco Cup]

^ I think the 1% who want to give Stu a raise might be even crazier. He made $3.7M this past season.

I couldn't agree more. It was a terribly worded survey I thought. By raise did they mean pay more money or play them more? Because I would rather just 'Keep' Scheifele at his ELC seeing as how its apparently an option? Like for some of them 'Raise' and 'Keep' aren't valid options (Scheifele for example - raise essentially means keep. Wheeler - can't really raise him yet but definitely want to keep him...)

Another example:

'Who should the Jets trade for New York Islanders defenceman Travis Hamonic?" and they give the option of 'Someone else'?

How about Mark Stuart and a Jeanne's cake?

I mean maybe the point is to get feedback but I thought it could have been done a lot better. Then again this is the Sun.

That

Im surprised Stuart had below 50% approval. Most people I know loves them some Stuuuuuuu.
