WPG could throw in a few thangs to even out the trade.

Winnipeg would have to, especially with that new 'whiz kid' Kyle Dubas on board they could probably get Wheeler or EKane thrown into the deal

Does Chevy have the stones to deal one of those players though? I mean Reimer isn't worth all the things but he's worth a lot of the things and probably some of the thangs. But probz not all the things.

So....JVR + a bunch of scraps for a top line winger and two top 4 Dmen....

I'm sure Winnipeg cant wait to accept...

- Iggysbff

A bunch of scraps? LOL. Franson would be your teams number 1 dman, Kadri would be your #1 center, JVR would be your best winger, and Reimer would be your best goalie. Top scraps in the scrap yard i suppose.

You failed to mention that Byfuglien is 265 lbs (more like 280lbs really) and hasn't played a real full season since his first year as a Thrasher more than 3 years ago!!!, which was also the last time he had a 20 goal year (other than this year)...

They are the same player buddy...one guy is a bit quicker and can score of the rush (Lupul) and one guy is a heavy shot big body front of the net player (Byf). Neither is the next coming of Cory Perry or Jaimie Benn. Each has their warts and size is the reason Byf is more coveted, but the Jets need help in Goal and on D and the trade helps them in both aspects.

I mean take a look at trades that have really happend with scoring wingers in this age range. I mean James Neal was traded for Hornqvist and Spaling, and dude scored 40 around 2 yrs ago, Spezza went for a package for never beens and a 2nd rd pick....buddy the NHL is full of 20 goal guys....at this point its about filling spots, and the Jets need to fill 3 spots. You have to get real, no one is giving a 1st rd pick for Byf even if it's at the trade deadline and they are desparate, as if they would this trade would have been done last season or by now for sure.

you failed to mention Lupul is injury prone, has never played a full season in his NHL career (missed significant time his last 3 seasons) and is making 5.25M for the next 5 years. That's an expensive 20 goal winger ain't it? Why would Winnipeg handcuff themselves like that?

Leafs are having enough of a hard time without you on their side.

Thinking about putting you on waivers again...

You've already said something to this effect. You need to present another point or shut up. You'd make an abysmal lawyer (the list of reasons is lengthy).

Victor Fasth- 3rd rd pick, 5th rd pick
Ilya Bryzgalov- 4th rd pick
Ben Scrivens - 3rd rd Pick
Devin Dubnyk- Matt Hendricks
Corey Schneider- 1st rd pick
Johnathon Bernier- Scrivens, Frattin, 2nd rd pick
Sergei Bobrovsky-2nd rd pick, 4th rd pick, 4th rd pick
Jonas Gustavson- 7th rd pick
Ben Bishop- Cory Conacher, 4th rd pick
Steve Mason- Michael Leighton, 3rd rd pick


I'd say Reimer is probably worth around a 3rd rounder.

This comment was highly suspect until I read further than "I'm reaching for the Captain....need a stiffer...".

Bryzgolov rental player. Barely an NHL goalie this year.
Reimer over scrivins
Dubnyk. Bad contract.
Gustafson was a UFA. Traded UFA rights at the draft
Bishop at that time was a fringe starter. Concher was sussposed to be a top 6 winger
