Quoting: MisstheWhalers
Like who?
So Olofsson has term left at 4.7m, and Buffalo obv would have a pretty high ask for him, which I get buy-beware from.
Jets should go two ways: mid-round pick for a rental/buy-low candidate (Dadonov, Craig Smith, Athanisou, Nyquist, a million other players like that)
Or you actually solve the Problem and swing big for a really quality player, maybe having to trade a d-man in the process: (Garland, Reinhart/Duclair, Mantha if he's available)
Olofsson is in that middle ground where he's not really good enough to be making a swing for, but also not a buy-low candidate where you only have to give up a pick for. If the Jets end up acquiring him I'm not going to mope about it, but there are other players i would prefer
re: the edit: thats obviously the case, the jets can't score right now. biggest problem. But we should target scorers who actually help the team through more than just goals.
Buffalo has been outscored with Olofsson on the ice, by significant amounts, for 3 years... That's horrible. This is a case of seeing the goals and not checking to see if its a good player, or a bad player with a good shot.
