Thread: Boston Bruins Offseason Scenario 2

If I were GM of the Jets, I would rather give you Stanley. I like Geekie, and I think he's a good add depending on how Cheveldayoff tweaks the forward group this summer.

If that's what it costs to get rid of Schmidt, Chevy would just buy him out lol.

Thread: Flyers next season

Gotta be honest, not really interested in Sanheim at the moment. If the Jets are dumping Schmidt, it think it would be a lot cheaper to just pay a draft pick for future considerations.

Thread: Who says no

I think the Jets are keen on keeping Stanley, so they would decline.

Utah just gets way worse for no reason lol. As does TO.

Thread: Keith Farrelle Cozart

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>NJTM</b></div><div>So what I’m being told is is that the $6M in savings is fair but the general Winnipeg sentiment is that they are pessimistic that they can get any kind of free agent.

FWIW, John Marino has trade protection in his contract next year and I can’t see New Jersey wanting to trade him anyway. Winnipeg can always take lysell and the 2nd rounder to the trade market themselves and get a right shot defenseman.</div></div>

Respectfully, when is the last time you heard of a big name free agent signing in Winnipeg? Winnipeg isn't an attractive destination for highly skilled players that can choose where they wanna play.

I'll add that Winnipeg could just cut out the middleman (Lysell and the 2nd) and use Ehlers to acquire a top4 RHD. Maybe a 3-way trade?

I suppose what makes bait good is when you can't tell if it's a real post from a delusional fan or a troll post from a rational fan. Kudos, lol

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Jets12Kozy</b></div><div>I doubt he comes back but Brossoit will never be a starter</div></div>

Should at least be getting a tandem job on a decent team.

Thread: interesting offseason

Vilardi isn't a centre
Pionk shouldn't be on the 1st or 2nd pairing
Heinola should be in the lineup over Schmidt
Brossoit isn't going to be a backup again
Lambert needs a shot in the top 6

There's also no cap space to add pieces at the deadline.

This would be an interesting off-season indeed.

Thread: Isles

I appreciate taking a swing, but you whiffed on the needs of the Jets organization. An established right-handed Dman is what the Jets need, not an exchange of fringe roster players, picks and a cap dump.

I think Jets and Isles fans are mostly in agreement that an Ehlers deal involves Pulock going the other way.

Thread: Building off of this year

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>theleano1</b></div><div>Your probably not getting much more than this, price of scoring wingers has decreased severely over the years</div></div>

It's less about value and more about roles. The last thing the Jets need is an LHD prospect. In fact, the second last thing the Jets need is a leftie Centre prospect.

Kevin Cheveldayoff is going to take the best offer, but the team really needs a solid top4 RHD, not more prospects in areas where there's already a log jam.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>CamdenHamilton</b></div><div>I mean they may aswell, did it with the Dubois move</div></div>

They already did it though, no need to do it again. Tbh I'm okay with futures being part of the package, but the absolute last thing the Jets need is more forwards of any level.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Vegas_Better</b></div><div>i retained salary just for it to work. personally i dont think there will be salary retained if this deal were to happen. But Atu Raty was projected 1st overall majority of his junior career and so was brad lambert. Jets took a chance on someone with a low floor and high ceiling I wouldn't be surprised if they did it again.</div></div>

The problem isn't the potential, it's the position. Jets already have quite a few high ceiling centre prospects similar in age. What the Jets need is a right-handed Dman.

Thread: Trouba like return

An NHL-ready RHD prospect and a first is a return I could live with. I wonder what Caps fans think about pushing that inevitable rebuild back another year though. It's a good model deal, I like it.

Thread: Elhers For Marner

As a Jets fan, I would rather have Ehlers and DeMelo at a combined $10.9mil than just Marner. I'd also rather keep the draft picks.

Thread: What do you girls think

Value is probably there, but that's not the position that the Jets need to fill. Unless Tavares can play defence while using a right-handed stick, I'm not sure the Jets bite on this.
