Hey guys, to kill some time before the big announcement thought it would be fun to create the 2011 Winnipeg roster we'd like to see. NAYSAYERS: I don't want to hear your "don't count your chickens before they hatch" comments. This is just for fun, hence the off-topic discussion thread.Anyway, check out the Thrashers roster via these sites: thrashers.nhl.com/club/roster.htmwww.nhlnumbers.com/teams/ATL?year=2011And the UFA list here: www.sportscity.com/nhl/2011-nhl-free-agents-by-position-unrestricted/Assume that: -you have $17 million to spend in FA cash. -guys sign for a reasonable price e.g. Bieksa wont be signing in Winnipeg for 2 million bucks. -all of our RFA's resign. ------------------------------ My 2011 Jets Signings:C Rob Neidermayer - $1.5 mil LW Simon Gagne - $3.5 mil LW Nikolai Zherdev - $2 mil D Christian Ehrhoff - $5 mil D Kevin Bieksa - $5 mil My 2011 Jets Roster:Kane - Little - Byfuglien Gagne - Ladd - Antropov Wheeler - Neidermayer - Stewart Thorburn - Slater - Zherdev Ehrhoff - Bieksa Bogosian - Enstrom Stuart - Oduya Hainsey Pavelec Mason

My 2011 Jets signings:
F Jussi Jokinen - $4mil F Ville Leino - $3mil D Kevin Bieksa - $5 mil Leave the remaining 5 mil to sign players like Kane and little to long contracts
That would give us two great lines...two great Def pairings and solid goaltending.....
Now lets get it done lol

My signings:
LW Leino 3 mil
C Connolly 4.5 mil
RW Upshall 2.2 mil
D Wisniewski 3.5 mill D Ehrhoff 4.5 mil
Kane - Connolly - Byfuglien Leino - Little - Antropov Wheeler - Ladd - Stewart Thorburn - Slater - Upshall
Ehroff - Wisniewski Bogosian - Enstrom Stuart - Oduya Hainsey
Pav and Mason
4 million left to play with! I'm just playing around here so don't shoot me for it.
I"d love to see Connolly and Leino for sure at Forward
And Ehrhoff for sure. Wisniewski did well in Montreal last year but who knows what he'll do this year. Should be fun to watch the Chipmans give Dudley some money to play with!!

I want Schneider so bad. I don't really know why. It just seems right...

Don't touch Gagne or Connolly, they're both made of glass.

Interesting point - why did Atlanta put Buff back on D and is he worth keeping up front?

Buff was put on D because he wanted to play there.
I'm keeping my expectations really low for free agents - this team will be built through the draft and developing prospects in St. John's, hopefully with a lot of patience. I want to see this team stay away from silly season on July 1st.
For free agents this summer, I'd be happy if we signed Arron Asham or Andrew Murray for depth forwards. I'd like to see us sign Anton Babchuk on defence.
