Wheeler actually playing that

Yes. Maurice pretty much said that

So that's how they got Laine to sign...

Haha....Wheeler played Center for about a month 2 years ago when Scheifele was injured....It was more of a desperate thing this year and it has worked out majorly...

Heads up...Carolina fans are super protective of JE.

I like the idea of adding JE, but in the offseason so the jets can keep guys like Appleton

I’ve been pleasantly surprised with wheelers play at 2c. I think he stays there long term. I just don’t see jets making the move for JE. According to CAR fans they’re super high on him as a major piece for a playoff run so we wouldn’t likely be able to get him anyways. I’d rather see a trade for hamonic. I doubt buff returns this year. Imo when Little returns, were going to see a scoring 3rd line in Perreault-Little-Ennis and then Copp-Lowry-Appleton will be our deadly shutdown line. If that is the way they run the lines. The jets will be able to roll all 4 lines and score with every one of them.
