Winnipeg Jets GM Kevin Cheveldayoff trade deadline day presser

The Jets GM spoke to the media today after the conclusion of the NHL Trade Deadline day.  A day in which the Jets stood pat.

Topics: Initial thoughts on Trade Deadline day.  How does he feel about the value he got for Andrew Ladd, especially when judged against the market today?  Does he think getting ahead of the market helped him with what they got for Ladd?  Is this a vote of confidence in the core?  Will he recall another defenceman or a third goalie?  Not planning on using any recall today?  On losing Adam Pardy.  Speaking to Wheeler on the future of this franchise and desire to win now.  Bringing young players up to play for the Jets.  On naming a new Jets captain.  What are the most important qualities he is looking for in a new Jets captain? Why are they spending so little on players this year?  Does he regret not signing some short term deals to make this team better?  On other teams “tanking”.  On the Jets financial flexibility advantage.
