Description

Bowness spoke today about nothing being off the table for Ehlers. He skated yesterday but was not on the ice today and seems to have hit a snag in his recovery. He suffered a lower body injury in Mid-October, Bowness spoke about the jets needing to make a decision on him soon, which likely is whether or not he needs surgery. If he does get surgery, depending on the injury he’ll be out for a while.

The jets will have a few options while he’s out, which are to try and replace internally. This could come via a Lambert call up to play in the top 6. They could also look at adding a winger via trade. I think that is much more likely. Jets can trade from a position of strength at D for F. I think Vancouver is the ideal partner for that.

Trades

WPG

Garland, Conor

VAN

Pionk, Neal

Additional Details:

I’d personally move pionk over DeMelo due to contract and team need. This also opens up a spot for Heinola. Not sure what the deal would look like as I believe Pionk holds more value than garland.

That is an overpay for the Jets. I just think Van would have to add in order to get Pionk, who is playing pretty well this year

Agreed. But I wasn’t sure how much they’d have to add so I just left it until I got feedback. Pionk has been solid, jets need a spot for heinola going forward and he doesn’t replace what DeMelo brings.

Yeah, I wouldn't mind getting Garland at all, but he definitely doesn't justify moving a top 4 RHD on a good contract. I also can't see the Jets moving one of their 2 RD. An LD sure, not RD.

Send Schmidt back. As much as I like him as a guy, he is the only one that is expendable.

We need Dillon's size and we need Demelo and Pionk RHS
