The Jeff Marek Show: Discussing the Winnipeg Jets and plan B options

Starting at the 26:33 mark Jeff Marek and Elliotte Friedman discuss the Winnipeg Jets the day after the loss to the Islanders. Friedman went into the whole Kevin Cheveldayoff having the toughest GM job in the NHL with players who have Winnipeg on their no trade lists. Says it eliminates a big pool of players. Feels Jets would be all over Timo Meier but Jets need to believe they can extend him and he says he isn’t convinced that they can. If Jets don’t go ‘big game hunting’ then he thinks they could be in on a player like Schenn as well as Coyotes forward Nick Schmaltz (16G 21A for 37 points in 42 games) who has three years left after this one at $5,850,000 and cannot block a trade.

Working hard on a daily basis to provide the latest Winnipeg Jets and Manitoba Moose news for our readers and listeners. I also appear on the Illegal Curve Hockey Show every Saturday on our YouTube channel as well as the Illegal Curve Post-Game Show after every single Jets game. And I occasionally jump in the play-by-play booth at Canada Life to provide colour analysis during Manitoba Moose games.
