Agreed, this would absolutely be the deepest forward group the Jest have had.

In regards to the trade, I have a real hard time including Big Bad Brad, would much rather add a prospect like Lucius. If Lambert is a must to beat other offers, maybe Jets look to their 2nd option. With that being said...Lindholm is the perfect acquisition the Jets could make. Tough decision.

Debatable if it's deeper then the 17-18 that lost in the conference finals.

They'd have to be extending Lindholm if they're parting with a 1st and Lambert. I don't care about Stanley but he is depth for the playoffs, if he isn't needed to be included for cap purposes and the Flames were indifferent on him I'd keep him.

Granlund dawg, Granlund...

I agree with @Rooney the lineup looks good, but I can't see Chevy parting with both a 1st and Lambert for a rental.

It will be competitive bidding on Lindholm if he is available. I think the price will have to hurt. I'm looking at next season and Lindholm would be resignable if Perfetti bridges and we get a sweet deal on Dillon/DeMelo (or let one walk into free agency).

You're on that Granlund train hey lol?! I guess I haven't watch him play very much this season, I figured a young guy like Lambert could make the jump next year so haven't been targeting guys with term.

Yeah, that would make a big difference. If Chevy thinks he has a chance to resign him, I could see him being willing to pay more.

Guys can be moved in the summer, like is Iafallo extending or should he even be extended at his age/price?

I just can't stomach selling prime assets for rentals, look how much of a difference Nino and Namestnikov are making, I've been screaming for Chevy to make those kind of moves for years! Why wouldn't another move or two like those be enough?

I know the big splash moves are exciting BUT they don't often work and we're all aware that Winnipeg needs its 1st round picks for long term sustainability of putting a quality product on the ice, just can't be tossing them away on rentals imo.

Even if Lambert is ready to be a 2C next season they can move someone else out including Granlund or just have really good depth for a season, would be surprised if the Jets put a rookie at 2C, history says they won't do that.

Idk, just my $0.02 on the idea of making a big 2C addition.

Of Lambert, Lucius, McGroarty and Barlow, who is the most expendable?

Probably Lucius but I'm just basing that mostly on the opinions of others, cant say I've seen a lot of these guys play much so far.
