The Winnipeg Jets announced today they have acquired defenceman Simon Bourque from the Montreal Canadiens in exchange for goaltender Steve Mason, forward Joel Armia, a seventh-round selection in the 2019 NHL Draft and a fourth-round selection in the 2020 NHL Draft.

Gezz, is that a steal.

Me too. I'm beginning to wonder why Jim isn't getting it done.

I would be talking to the Canadiens right now about Nilsson for Mason and a pick.

Then swooping in and trading Markstorm to NYI for Pulock.

Demko and Mason it is.

Its such a huge price to pay for wpg but they really wanted stastny. Picks and good prospects for 1 year of masons salary. I would rather the canucks brjng in "veterans" through cap dump trades (ennis, spezza, etc) than UFAs. Atleast we get picks and prospects out of it at the same time lol

Exactly. My only hope is that JB is driving the price up for UfA's but isn't going to sign any. So teams are like WPG are forced to sell others.

When I met my daughter, she had no team. Had her in Canucks stuff for years. Now that she is able to make her own decisions. My friends convinced her to be a Jet's fan.

Yup. That’s 100x better than overpaying Bottom 6’ers. I think these are the exact type of moves a lot of us were hoping Benning would make.

I’m still holding judgement until official moves are made though

MTL trades a 6th round pick for a 1st, 4th, 7th round picks because of Cap space.

Property taxes in MB are just a rip off.

Wife and I were discussing moving out to Kelowna area last year but she has really fell in love with her job here.

Now with the baby coming in October, they said if she puts in another year after her maternity leave, they will top her up to 97% of her pay. So we are staying for 2 more years.


Edit: Septic is meh. they are actually putting in sewer to all the places between selkirk and winnipeg. It's costs the people about 8800 each.

Don't really get what Eklund is on about there. I would 100% inquire about dealing Markstrom but I suspect once again that JB actually wants to win, which I respect but god dammit that top pick would be nice.

#hughesvandraft2019

anybody else planning on going to the draft?
