ntMyers is playing better than Trouba. Trouba's puck handling in his own end isn't very good. He's not as good as he or his agent think.
The Jets will have at least 26.6m in cap space next year. They don’t need to move any of their players. Why would they cheap out now that the team actually looks good?If Trouba signs, we should move on from Buff. He's still got it but we will need the cap space. Trade him while he's still got pretty good value.
Probably a first pairing LHD. Either straight up, or one team adds to even the value.interesting - what would winnipeg be looking for in return

I don't want Buff hitting anyone on the Jets that often!Would love me some Buff on the Blues! But that contract ... In any case, I don't see the Jets and Blues as good trade partners, being that we are fighting for the Central title. (Aside, looking forward to a Blues/Jets tilt! I wish you well, Jet's fans, until of course, you play us. )

I conquer.Something around Sekera perhaps?
Helps balence the L/R split on Winnipeg's defence
Morrissey-Trouba
Sekera-Myers
... And Edmonton has enough defensive defencemen to cover for Buff...
Nurse-Larsson
Russell-Buff
Davidson-Klefbom
He can get all the offensive minutes he wants in Edmonton.
If you think he has been “pretty bad” you haven’t been watching him much. He is playing a solid defensive game while being a strong physical presence. He has had a few bad games where he tries to do too much when we were down a few goals, but we can live with that. He has obviously been asked to stop the roving and the team has benefited from it. He may be traded once he starts to decline but the Jets are loyal to their troops, for the most part.This guy's 32 and has looked pretty bad from what I've seen from him this year and has four more years at $7.5m. I don't know if any team offers Winnipeg full value.
You obviously haven’t watched him play if you think he has been bad. The jets have asked him to play a more responsible defensive role, and take less chances making unnecessary pinches, and look where it has the team. Classic case of someone not watching games, and making matter of fact statements based on looking at the stats pages.This guy's 32 and has looked pretty bad from what I've seen from him this year and has four more years at $7.5m.

That will depend on the team budget. If they are willing to spend now is the time.The Jets will have at least 26.6m in cap space next year. They don’t need to move any of their players. Why would they cheap out now that the team actually looks good?
