Thread: Jets go full tank modetrade for future Does this help them long term or not
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>AceCane</b></div><div>Phi trade was to acquire slightly younger dman and taking JVR for 1 year helps lower his price.
Min trade is for a potential 1st pair ofd and taking 50% of Wheelers contract for 2 years makes the deal more ideal for the Wild.
Vgs trade is for a potential #1/#2 center and another good prospect while filling Vegas need for a goalie

Think you forgot in this thread that the Jets go full tank mode for 1-2 years for a faster rebuild</div></div>

No I understand that you're trying to do full tank mode. But when you do that you try to trade your players for good young players or picks not garbage. Like the Montreal trade for example.

You're going about it in a half assed way. Trading good players for far less than their worth, taking back older, worse players and then trading away a first to move Wheeler and then taking back a cap dump in JVR. You just didn't stick to your plan.

Thread: Jets Blow it up
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>AceCane</b></div><div>I can see DK taking another team friendly contract 2-3yr 2-3mil/swayman 3-4yr 2-3mil/Zacha 2-3yr 3.5-4.5mil/ Fredrick 1-3yr 2-3mil/ Pasta 7yr 8-8.5mil(21mil) but given expiring contracts like Craig Smith, Chris Wagner, and Connor Clifton you would have more than enough to resign depth players and if you want given Bergeron signs another very friendly team deal, and at the end of the day you could still sell Wheeler if hes producing still for good price given Jets hold 50% of contract</div></div>


DK is 37. He’s not signing 2-3 year deal.

Pasta wants 8 years100m. That’s 12.5. Market has been set. He does not come in at less than 9.5 per.

Those expiring contracts are a non factor. They were already gone and off the books.

It just not feasible.

I created an ACGM for next year.

Signed Pasta-10. Zacha-5. Sway-4. Frederic-2. Brought up Lysell, Beecher, Studnicka, Greer for cheap options to fill roster.

At that point they were 1m under the cap with a 21 man roster and no allowance for bonus overages.

They will have to move contracts in order to sign Bergy and DK if they choose to continue and make improvements , like Reilly, Forbort, Coyle, Ullmark as possibilities.

Taking on extra to this mess is just not an option.

Good talking to you. 👍🏻 I gotta get to bed, long day tomorrow.

Thread: Jets Blow it up
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>AceCane</b></div><div>Well given he had 17G-43A-60P in 65 games played last season and boston would be acquiring him already at 4.125mil for 2 years if you count this season would be very easy for boston to retain another 50% on his 4.125mil contract and still come up on top of a deal next season if they were to get Wheeler then trade him on his last year of contract . That being said if boston were to retain 50% of his contract next year he would only have a cap hit of 2.06mil against boston and any team involved</div></div>

You obviously have not looked at their cap situation next season.

The reason they did not buyout Foligno was they could not carry his dead cap hit next year. They sure as hell are not retaining anything.
