Description

I kept going back and forth on who should be the extras. In my mind, if Heinola does not make the Jets out of camp, he will 100% ask for a trade (and deservedly so). Even though he is waiver exempt, if the Jets want Heinola to be part of this team moving forward, he cannot start the year in the AHL. This is why I chose him over Fjallby, Capobianco & Viel.

Thoughts?

I kind of want to see Connor/perfetti/scheifele, niedreiter/Namestnikov/ehlers, iafallo/kupari/vilardi, and barron/lowry/Appleton and role 4 lines. I like your d pairings. Going to be interesting to see if bones can get the best out of them

Not bad! But I do think Vilardi has to be in a top 6 role...would also love Perfetti to make the move to centre, and I think they'll give him a shot eventually but maybe not right out of the gate. There are so many different line variations that could happen, I'm excited to see what shakes out after camp!
