‘”It’s been all rumors. If there’s anything that the Jets are really good at is dousing those flames and trying to put those out as they try to work behind the scenes. It’s been an interesting offseason for Winnipeg,” Hamilton said on WGR. “Certainly Ristolainen has been a guy that’s been rumored in this neck of the woods. Jake Gardiner has also been a guy that the Winnipeg Jets have been interested in and have kind of pushed the buttons on. They’re really looking for guys that fit into that Tyler Myers range for what they had before ($5.5 million AAV)… A guy like Ristolainen making $5.4 million a season, he’s the kind of guy that would certainly fit in that group.”‘
Are the Sabres and Jets a match for a Ristolainen trade?
