An Autopsy of the Winnipeg Jets: The Depth Forwards (+ Recent Additions)
July 9, 2024
It’s the final addition!
Summer begins so let me know any topics you want me to cover, whether that’s analytics or hockey or Jets. Current or stories from when I worked with NHL teams. Etc.

appreciate the breakdown! It kind of felt like all of our new acquisitions were destined to be healthy scratches or Moose (since the prospects and familiar faces in the bottom 6 all kind of seem better) but it’s nice seeing the numbers confirm the quality in the depth we already have. I wonder if we’ll end up packaging any of them in a trade, since it does seem like we’ve got a *lot* of quality 4th liners.
Also, I’m kind of hoping your projected lineup at the end is a little bit off, because it’d be nice to see more of the younger players start to make their way up the roster. It’s also a little funny and a little sad seeing how the 2C position is still a thorn in our side – I wonder who we’ll buy to slot in there this deadline, lol

Any and all stories from your time with NHL teams and their varying approaches and thoughts on analytics would be great! Those are always interesting to hear about.
Another option that I don’t know if you’d be able to do or have the data for given it’s SHL: I would love a breakdown on Salomonsson’s role on Skellefteå in terms of ice time/responsibilities, performance etc – maybe with some info about how he’s looked at development camp and such so far. I know he was on the top pairing for the championship team in one of the best non-NHL leagues in the world, but I’d love more detail on exactly what his role was and how he fared. Like, how hype should I be?
I’d be pretty disappointed if Kupari is on the NHL roster ahead of any of….Gus, Toninato, AJF.
I haven’t seen someone do more skating and never get near the puck.
