If Lucic is an issue, imagine Buff lining up across from him at the faceoff circle...Lucic would run home and crawl under his mother's bed...
No, he wouldn't.

Attracting free agents was never a way realistic Jets fans thought we would improve. When you look at it, there are very few high profile free agents left, it seems, year after year.
We have to draft well and we have done that. Whatever people say about Chevy you have to give him big points for that. We had the worst prospect pool in the league when the team moved here. Most fans are happy with the path we are on, I think we just need fine tuning.
Also, don't knock that winter. It protects Canada economically.
I live in BC and have seen first hand how runaway foreign investment drives housing prices through the roof and shrinks the middle class. That winter protects canadians from predatory foreign investors. Won't say anymore on this, getting way off topic.
How about Buff for Scherback and a 2015 2nd? Keep Tinordi..
Desharnais + Thomas + 3rd?
Buff only shows up when he wants to. Just say no to Buff and his lazy attitude.
Your going to go deep, very deep in the playoffs so I understand reluctance to part with roster players.
However, that means higher end prospects will be required to get a deal done.
Tinordi and a healthy Scherback?
No, he wouldn't.
No dice. Scherbak isn't available. One of Tinordi/Beaulieu + 1st is the max for us.
I don't think the majority of Habs fans here would agree to that. But that's just my impression.
I know, but I'm trying to look at it from Winnipeg's perspective. How exactly does it h After all, we all value our own players higher than others would, and we vastly outnumber Jets fans, so you can't just trust popular opinion.
Not that I'd trust it, only that the Jet fan who started the thread seemed convinced that our fans would buy into trading Beaulieu and a first for Bluff.
No, he wouldn't.
A dman who was drafted in 2010 and still can't make the NHL to go with a winger who everyone was so quick to label a bust ?
This is immediate, NHL caliber help. No one said giving up Scherbak. It's a 1st and Beaulieu. Could cost less, but I wouldn't imagine much more.
If this were reverse all of you saying you wouldn't give up much for him would be demanding that exact payment, if not more.
I'd seriously consider that deal, and I'm a homeristic Habs fan.
Looking at Beaulieu's potential, it's tough, but Byfuglien is just plainly a much better player. If the 1st were a 2016 1st, I'd likely pull the trigger on Beaulieu + 1st.
I'm the same way, and I LOVE Nate, but I'd also consider that deal.I'd seriously consider that deal, and I'm a homeristic Habs fan.

Buff was a HUGE piece for Chicago when they won their cup in 2010. He was all over Luongo, and he was truly a difference maker. Him on the right wing in the top 6 would be awesome.
I don't see it as the cut and dry. Buff is overrated and not that amazing.

This is how I see it.
BTW, just so you don't think I am a dick, I totally support all Canadian teams not called the Leafs or Senators. Every time the Oilers, Canucks, or (I'm embarrassed) the flames have been in the playoffs, I have rooted for them when they don't play the Habs. I was also extremely pissed when the Jets were forced to relocate, because the fans in the Peg are awesome! And, I love the Avro, too ... and was sad that the project was sunk. Although, I spent time in the Peg, and would never want to live there .... but that goes for most Canadian cities, that are too bloody cold ... but Winnipeg brings that all to a new level.
I hope that the Oilers and Jets turn their teams around, and that soon, we have a Stanley Cup playoffs filled with Canadian teams not called the leafs
are you kiding he's 6" and 170 pounds soaking wet. buff is an established force when playoffs time come. buff is around 6"5 265 now thats big.
