I am not the guy you want to be wrong about.
Yeah, adding centre depth like RNH would be nice, but oilers would have to retain salary on that contract. He just makes too much money. No way should he be paid more than Scheif or Little.

I would do that but we would have to add. Myers doesn't get #4 straight up.

Actually I wonder now that the Isles are out, if Chevy and Snow will have any discussions
I've been hoping that the Isles drop out of these playoffs since they started. I'm hoping that Snow and Chevy can come together and get a deal done to let Hamonic come home. I'll go pick him up if he needs a lift.

According the Isles fans the Jets brass can't be trusted to keep a secret and Snow won't be dealing with Chevy ever

Chevy can't keep a secret?
That's a new one - he never shows his hand on anything, much to our chagrin.

It is certainly an exciting though. A more defensive type RHD would balance out Trouba & Buff nicely According the Isles fans the Jets brass can't be trusted to keep a secret and Snow won't be dealing with Chevy ever
what?? They need to understand its a process with us

That's because he folded pre-flop.

Read an interesting take on that a few years ago (from Friedman, I think?)... long story short, 2 GMs having a grudge happens more than you think. Generally, they just get their assistant GMs to make a deal in that case

Travis H trade request. NYI blogger reports/suggests Chevy's camp leaked Travis's trade request.

Ohhh thanks Hunter
Yeah - doesn't sound like Chevy's style at all. Sounds like the furthest thing from Chevy's style actually

If you asked Chevy what day of the week it was he would talk for 10 minutes and you still wouldn't have had your question answered.
He isn't going to tell anyone anything about hockey related business - ever.Not every day that someone WANTS to be traded to Winnipeg. I'd have a hard time keeping that under my hat too.

"What's the time Chevy?"
"Well, certainly that's a fascinating question because we need to remind ourselves of the process and prognosticate about the details. The biggest thing for us is to remember how we get there. We get there by earning the opportunity to get there, by looking back at the time the last time we looked at the time. It isn't coming through the back door. It isn't getting lucky. There is going to be a little bit of a feeling out period. But we need to be sure that we follow the process and make the right decision."
"Ok....ok.....Could you give me a hint, perhaps on the 24 hour clock or perhaps a different time zone?"
"Well we like to keep these dealings private as they should be. That professional aspect is important to us and our organization. However what I can disclose is that it may or may not be afternoon depending on which side of Greenwich you are on. I cannot reveal specifics at this time but perhaps at a later date when it is appropriate to do so"
"So...um...Its just that I forgot my watch at home..."
"That is what training camp is for. Siting here last year at this point in time, it seemed like we had a tough call to make on what the time may or may not be. However we look at the players that have made their way onto our roster and climbed their way up the depth chart. Our young players that made an impact. That is what the process is for the Jets. For us is giving those young kids an opportunity to spred their wings and grow. For us that is how we are going to have to grow as a franchise. That is how we know the time."

IMO there is only so long Snow can dick around. My GUESS is that his window is between now and mid summer. Garth needed to get the playoff run out of Harmonic and that he did, now the clock is ticking. The thing is Chevy doesn't really need this deal so there is no reason to sell out.
Some key things have changed since this deal was warm:
Pulock has emerged as a decent RHD option for the Isles
Buff has been inked long term in Winnipeg
We traded Ladd (added 1st round pick & Dano and left more budget available)
We landed the second overall pick (Cost controlled top 6 asset frees up budget and assets to spare)
Myers has had major surgery to clean up existing injuries..
Trouba remains unsigned
Does Snow even need a RHD coming back any more now that the playoffs are done?
Season is over so its deal making time again soon.
How much leverage does Travis have in this negotiation?
So I think there has been allot of change and there is probably going to be a reboot on this "process". As a guy who didn't use to give a **** about this I am starting to think with Buff extended Harmonic becomes a really attractive option for us. I still wouldn't flip Trouba but I might add a bit to Myers. I think a stronger defender might be exactly what we need going forward now that we are adding so much firepower up front.
If I was Edmonton I would be bending over to make this happen. Travis is exactly the kind of asset they need and we know Chia and Snow like to make deals.
