DeMelo

Jets need the rhd over anything else. Quite a fall off from top 3 on rhd side for Winnipeg. A little more offensive than lehkonen would be a need in wpg, but not for opening the hole that demelo would leave, especially getting so close to cap.

I fear that bringing Hoffman means Perry is gone. I'd rather keep Perry 1 year than Hoffman 3 years but hey Bergevin wanted that 4.5m one timer in PP

I'm pretty sure Wideman is in the 23 roster, he wouldnt be on waivers. He'd get Perry spot most likely...

But indeed Bergy, when he talked about his needs, he talked about a puck-moving D more than a C

I know Dylan extremely well. He’s fantastic and well raised but I wouldn’t make that trade.

Are you still pumped about the two trades??
The more I think about it the worse I think they are, just blocked Heinola and Dillon is an older version of Stanley and Samberg, don't see the point in blocking those two and almost $10M to two 30 year old dmen for another 3 years when there's RFA'S to sign might be an issue.
Still think they really need a top 6 upgrade and another new face in the bottom 6 with some sandpaper to his game if they really are trying to contend. If they can move DeMelo and Copp to get/fit those guys they should do it.

Um when they added Nate Schmidt I think that solved their defensemen issue
