The most important thing is too pay the most extra you can at the beginning of the mortgage. all things being equal. Don't forget, most areas of Canada has much less expensive real estate than the Buffalo area.

Kaner didn't help himself by crapping the bed for the last how many weeks? Believe me when I say that the Sabres are a better team without him. The racism angle is a load of crap, especially in Winnipeg. The most popular Jet is not Laine, it is Buff. He was a cancer in the locker room and we have some very strong leaders in there. He was playing his rock star image and his team mates had enough of it and pretty much forced Chevy to trade him. Be glad with what you got for him and move on. GMJB is not GMTM in any way, shape or form. He isn't going to try to rebuild this team in a season or two. He'll pick out the core players he wants to move ahead with and target other ones around the league and try to make a pitch for them. He will also trim the fat a bit. The one thing he won't do is give up high draft picks (until you're contending) like the last GM.

Any team can still make a trade but noplayer traded after the TD is allowed to play in the playoffs. Two examples... TB makes a trade with AZ and TB makes the playoffs and AZ doesn't. No players traded to TB can play in the playoffs this season. TB makes a trade with NSH and both teams make the playoffs. No players in that trade can play in the playoffs this season. Really rare. Nice to see you guys batting 1.000 without Kaner.

I was comparing Kaner to Stastny, didn't mention the trade. Glad you guys are rid of him and he is in our conference...short chopper ride for him to Vegas now.

In which universe is Kaner a better rental than Stastny? Especially at 3.5m? He's not even a better player let alone rental. He's played in 55 more playoff games than Kaner and has scored .79 ppg over his career. He has more assists in a couple of years than Kaner has ever scored in points! One thing about Kaner, the team he leaves instantly becomes better. Be glad he is gone and you got what you did for him. Thanks for the laugh though. Just a heads up, he won't be re-signing in SJ. Now where's that guy I bet that Kaner was going to be gone before his contract ended?

No teams mentioned...it was about 10 seconds...they did a quick rundown of the top 10.

Five teams serious about him...nobody willing to pay high asking price at first but there are 5 teams circling since Nash was moved...Sabres willing to eat 50% of Kaner's salary to help the deal along.

Except he was coming to Winnipeg and it would have been the 3rd round, not the 2nd. I hope Boston gets Nash so we don't. If I were Chevy, I would give the Oilers an offer they couldn't refuse for RNH.

Kane was injured when you guys traded for him??? Jets want no part of Beaulieu and the talk for Antipin is Petan and I wouldn't do this but we probably lose Petan to waivers this fall... The Ducks won't give up Manson or Lindholm.

I think Kaner goes to the Ducks. They need D too but they need a scoring winger. I don't think the Ducks will be sellers at all like some are saying. A first and a very good prospect is probably what Kaner gets you guys. edit ... Forgot to mention, Vegas and Van are places Kaner might end up this off season.

Kaner will bring back a 1st plus... I hope the Jets acquire Brassard.....we'd have a scary set of forwards with 4 excellent lines.

Botterill will move players like Pouliot and Kane at the TD but I think most if his wheeling and dealing starts after the season is over. He and his inner circle have had a full year of evaluations of all players in the system and the league for that matter. He should know what he wants and what he doesn't by now. He will select his core players and try to build around them. I think he has a busy off season.

I think he would make a really good back up goalie that could fill in if the starter went down. 4m is a bit much though. I am waiting for that first big trade to set the tone and see what shakes out!

Some Jets fans are wondering if Chevy should pick up a backup goaltender with Mason and Hutchinson out with concussions and Comrie not showing well his last game in the bigs.

I took the Sabres with 2.8 odds and also bet the over on 5.5 goals. The Bruins can go piss up a rope and suck on the soggy end as far as I'm concerned. Not a hockey team I hate worse than the Bruins. Plus, the bastards are a point up on us in the standings.

Americans playing on the Jets... Wheeler Trouba Buff Myers Kyle Connor Connor Hellebuyck Adam Lowry Jack Roslovic Brendan Lemieux Andrew Copp Matt Hendricks Tucker Poolman Plus, Mason Appleton is one of the best players on the farm team... I'd say the Jets know a good American hockey player when they see one. I highly doubt they would care where he was both though. Unless he was born in Buffalo... jk

Maurice probably figured leading the AHL was enough to try him on the first line.He has scored a goal tonight and he has certainly had enough chances to score goals since he has been called up. He plays with Wheeler and Laine and is honestly better than both of them defensively. I see him as a 2nd liner.

Didn't hear a peep from Stamkos/Kucerov thanks to the Copp Lowry Armia line. We're 1st in the division 2nd in the conference and 3rd in the league...Roslovic is on the first line with Wheeler and Laine....I hope Chevy goes put and beefs us up for a long playoff run.

The Jets beat the Bolts 3-1 last night with their 1C, 1D, plus Kulikov out and their 3rd string goalie in net!!!

Myers only played 11 games last year and then had knee surgery followed by hip surgery. I'm not sure if it is the same type of hip surgery or not. I am not a big fan of his but I do admit he is playing a good offensive game. I just do not like his defensive game. I think Bogo is another example of the Atlanta franchise rushing a player into the NHL when he is not ready. Burmistrov and even Kane are other examples.

You would have to get a lot for Kane to even out the trade.

I just saw that Bogo is hurt again.......sure he isn't in rehab?

Roslo was the points leader in the AHL when he was called up. Armia had the most TOI of any forward the other night and is arguably our smartest D forward on the team. Lemieux can't crack the team at LW with Ehlers Connor Perreault Copp and Matthias ahead of him. He'll be on the team full time next season. If you think Myers and Bogo are a wash, well, I really don't know what to say. He has 23 points and is our leading points D man. Last year he had 5 points and he only played 11 games....how is this a wash? Bogo has one assist this year... Add what Staf contributed (especially the season he was acquired) and you would have to be a die hard Sabres fan to think this is a wash. Somebody on here asked me last year while the Jets were sucking how the trade was doing for the Jets. The Sabres were x amount of points better than the year before and the Jets were x amount of points worse...well, I will ask that question back this year...how is the trade working out for the Sabres? Last time I looked, the Jets were in sole possession of third place overall and the Sabres were in sole possession of 2nd last.

Starting skaters for the Jets... Lemieux Roslovic Armia Kulikov Myers just kidding
