Colorado not making another trade is a big surprise too - rumors were they wanted to push all in for one more year while MacKinnon is still cheap.
Also surprised by Winnipeg. Hellebuyck is a UFA in 18 months...at some point you need to try to win with that group and try to add to them.
Actually all of the West was a failure to me - there is no real good team in the West. Somebody should have pushed the chips in (I actually didn't love Edmonton's moves which were kind of lateral too Bjugstad = Puljujarvi, Ekholm > Barrie but not by what they paid for the upgrade)

Agreed on the Jets. Are they too dismayed by their late crash to make any moves? Are they counting on injury returnees? They added Nino and Namestikov but surely they need D depth and maybe an improvement at backup G.
