DeMelo should be the most prioritized UFA. After that, I think Dillon. Minute munching guy who can play with Pionk.
Those two with DeMelo/Jmo is a respectable top 4. Probably not good enough to win a cup, but not bad.

Sami Vatenan should be perfect for them. Good 2-way guy when healthy and is like an older Pionk.

Braun i feel wouldnt work in there system as his playstyle does not scream jets

Barrie would work as a 3rd pairing guy as he brings little defense but a tonne of offense

I think they sign 1 UFA and give the opportunity to Heinola and Samburg if they struggle maybe look to add 1 more at the deadline

His value has tanked so if they want a cheap RD sure, but Vatenan is the better choice as he can provide points and defend when need be

He wasnt playing well this year and the previous year he was okay. A team could take the chance to pay him well but i think hes taking a discount on another team

Hamonic was good this season and great the 9 years before. He is a defensive Dman. He can move the puck just nothing flashy. Guys his age with that style of play have a cheap price tag.

If Toronto picked him up you would be singing a different tune. Pretty sure he’s going back home though.

There's some RFA dmen the Jets should inquire on, Pulock, Cernak and Zadorov.

Morrissey and Pionk need bigger D partners.

Ive done a Winnipeg agm today. DeMelo should be top priority. After that I would go with Dillon. A hard to play against defenseman. So the top 6 would look like this:
Morrissey- DeMelo
Dillon-Pionk
Beaulieu- Niku

I can see Samburg and Pionk getting into the top 6 over Beaulieu and Niku. Poolman is also still in the mix

Jets will run with Samberg at 2nd pairing LHD.
Other than hopefully re-signing DeMelo, the only D WPG might look at is a 1yr contract on a cheap bottom pairing LHD vet.
With the ED coming up, it makes no sense to get a top 4 player we can’t protect.
