Note: We are now in the quiet stretch of time which silence may be broke with news of a signing of the remaining RFAs (Vilardi, Barron, Stanley & Chisholm) as well as a potential free agent or two. We did learn courtesy of the NHLPA the arbitration dates scheduled for Gabe Vilardi and Morgan Barron.
Note II: The Moose confirmed on Monday the signing of former forward/Jets draft pick CJ Suess to a two-year deal. It wasn’t “breaking news” as his agency had already reported the deal being in place last week.
Note III: Somehow I totally missed the news last week that the Sharks had signed former Jets prospect/Moose defenceman Leon Gawanke to a one-year, two-way contract.
Jets news:
TSN: Contract question complicates Hellebuyck trade. There’s always going to be a degree of risk committing to a 30-year old goalie, even one as good as the perennial Vezina contender (and past winner). Maybe a short-term deal can get done at a higher dollar value but there doesn’t seem to be much appetite right now for any sort of deal.
TSN: Pats GM, former Sens and Jets coach Paddock announces retirement. It was quite the career for the Manitoba product and former Jets 1.0 coach who decided to retire.
