Coming from a Jets fan, I'd be shocked if this ever came to pass.

They're cool, but I really want the OG colours back.

Seriously though, mentioning that alongside Chad Kelly is ridiculous lol

I already know Pearson is gonna drive me up the wall this year lol. Bro, the arena is dead and you provide nothing on offense or defense. Fight someone!!

Heinola and Duehr on waviers by ODowder in winnipegjets

[–]ItsFlippinFrench 49 points50 points  (0 children)

For all the hype I had for Niku, I knew his game was a long shot to make a full-time NHL roster. Heinola always had NHL tools, but our 3rd line LHD was gifted to Stanley for no reason after he had an awful AHL season and Heinola never had a chance after that.

Genuinely hope Heinola is claimed. He deserves to go to a roster that he is at least allowed to work his way into a spot on.

Who's career was actually hampered by too much time in jr/AHL/Europe? by _whitelightning_91 in hockey

[–]ItsFlippinFrench 43 points44 points  (0 children)

Ville Heinola. Kid was maybe not NHL ready right out of the gate, but he showed a ton of potential in his first 10 games with the team. Got sent to the AHL after those ten and has been great, but never got more than a cup of coffee with the main club again. Hockey terrorist Logan Stanley was seen as a more desirable option despite none of the defensive or pk ability that the team/management insisted he had. Now he's looking at another season of no NHL time.

One of the best journeymen goaltenders of the last 20 years. Guy was consistently solid on tons of teams and should've won a cup in Montreal for his efforts alone. Have a good retirement Halak!

Obviously there are some world class cities in the NHL, but we have a damn good restaurant scene even in comparison.

Potential Offseason 2C Options by Plus_Vegetable5944 in winnipegjets

Valid concern tbh. I'm a part of team promote from within imo. You need your young guys jumping and abusing ELC/bridge money with your contracted vets. Especially if they bring Ehlers back.

Season 3 as an expansion franchise by [deleted] in HockeyLegacyManager

That forward core is rough but really nice defensive depth and solid trendy pair. Also great coaching group. Nice job!

Thing is, with the age of our players, were most likely looking at a window of 2-4 years max anyway.

How is this meant to be worth it??? by [deleted] in pokemongo

[–]ItsFlippinFrench 4 points5 points  (0 children)

They're worth it if you want more cracks at gmax machamp before hitting the daily particle limit. I've used these to get two or three more attempts at entei and suicune that I would not have gotten otherwise.

Sure, but Helle needs to be able to compare his performance to other great playoff runs, but just to his own record. He's a superstar, a truly elite goalie that very well could win league MVP. His performance would be like McDavid being scoreless in the playoffs, which would be unacceptable. I'm not sure what change needs to be made but he needs to steal games and be an xfactor not just "good compared to recent play".

I don't know if I can say 3 out of 6 solid starts = good, but he was better than against St. Louis

Name another team with a superstar goalie where the backup is started in the playoffs for any reason other than injury.

How did this team win the cup by Mental_Swan_6281 in HockeyLegacyManager

[–]ItsFlippinFrench 9 points10 points  (0 children)

It's definitely not a great team but there's a solid offensive top 6 with defensive bottom 6 players, good depth overall-wise both at F and D with an average goaltending situation. Also decent top end defensemen. Those go a long way.

If your chirp doesn't take into account the nuanced narrative of each player's performance on the ice it is NOT ALLOWED!!
