Offseason keys for Winnipeg planes
ESPN’s Ryan S. Clarke and Kristen ShiltonThe Winnipeg Jets lost to the Vegas Golden Knights in the first round in five games. The injuries had taken a heavy toll Josh MorrisseyAnd Nikolaj EhlersAnd Mark Shevell And Cool Perfetti All are missing varying numbers of games.
Do the Jets bring most players back and try to fill the holes for another round or do they take a long range approach?
What will happen with the RFA pending forward Pierre Luc Dubois? Will they be able to sign him to a long-term extension? They will also need to make decisions about RFA advocates Dylan Samberg And Logan Stanley.
Acquisition trade deadline Vladislav Namestnikov He is a UFA suspended and played well. The Jets may be interested in re-signing him.
Goalkeeper Conor Hellbwickand the Schefeile attackers Blake Wheeler They are entering the final year of their contracts.
Mike McIntry: With Dubois, Scheifele and Hellebuyck entering the final year of their contracts and one year after being UFA, if they can’t sign them to long-term extensions, they can’t lose them for nothing as free agents, so they should consider trading them out of the season.
Bowness is not happy after the loss
Sean B. Roarke from NHL.comWinnipeg Jets coach Rick Bowness After last night’s loss he was “disappointed and disgusted now”.
And he continued to resent him.
“Don’t hold back,” Bowness said. “It’s the same thing we saw in February. Once we were fighting for first place (in the Central Division) and teams were chasing us, we had no going back.
“We had no opposition this series. Their better players were a lot better than ours, and it wasn’t even close.”
