In keeping with the theme from the past couple of game day threads, we shall look at the final line of defense for the Winnipeg Jets, that being the goaltender position. Currently, the Jets have a tandem of Pavelec and Hutchinson being the placeholders, with Hellebuyck, Comrie and Phillips in the depth chart. What changes would you like to see? Can a goalie be used as a piece to move up in the draft? I wonder if there is another diamond in the rough goalie out there for the Jets to steal? Let me know what you think in the comments below.

What do you expect will happen with Kyle Connor? Will he follow Trouba or Copp’s example? Or return to school? https://t.co/4msHjq5uA3
