Thread: Rhd hunt

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>masterjuddi</b></div><div>I dont think Dallas does it and honestly the jets shouldnt. Heinola could be a jets for a long time where Klingberg is a UFA after next year.</div></div>

Just scared the window is next three years, scheifele new deal and wheeler retirement. I guess it now depends on Dubois next contract also, helly decision in 3/4 years also but that shouldn’t be too crazy more

Thread: Rhd sale

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Phleb2</b></div><div>I am open to trade Klingberg in the context of us missing the PO (real possibility) and in the expectation of the massive contract he will ask for at the end of 2022 when he will be 30.

As far as your scenario, I think we could get more than what you are proposing. Probably a 1s round pick and a B prospect.</div></div>

I didn’t think it was done here, the basis was heinola for klingberg and a wpg add, but hate putting in the add and the conversation turns to too much, too little. With this trade opens up a expansion protection spot and a possible run at Hamilton or klingberg a year later. I’m a Jets fan looking for the contender over the top trade like iginla for newiendyke

Maurice loves running out the same lines and lineup as soon as he finds one he likes, feel bad for those two kids going to be tough to break in now barring injury

Thread: Canucks deal

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>jgimp69</b></div><div>I wouldn’t mind waiting to see what we have in Heinola and Samberg. I think Samberg is the big, mobile, physical defender we have been waiting for.</div></div>

I just think the window is right now with the way the divisions are set up, edm/tor gauntlet is a easier gauntlet than the col/stl/dal central run. With any luck and other past playoff experience and depth, there’s a good chance of getting out of the division. Then there’s the Vegas/col/stl battle to get to the cup. But ya looking forward to heinola and samberg

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>jgimp69</b></div><div>Schmidt vetoed a trade to Winnipeg last year. I would assume he would do it again.</div></div>

Damn I think the Jets could use a large mobile dman to add to the group, not even if van looks like a sinking ship? There is a bit of a shortage of the rhd large mobile dman in the league, would be nice to snag one with some term for Winnipeg’s hole, might be getting ahead of it, but with the right guy I think this squad could do some damage, possibly even a trip to wcf or cup

Price and upgrade a first for Seattle, move them into the lottery or shine up a second or something could be interesting, probably waives to get him closer to bc and home possibly

Thread: Legit contender

Definitely the year to go 06 oilers and there buying of pronger, which turned into short term but a trip to cup final. Being an all Canadian division, no truly ugly monster teams til the western final. So definitely time to swing at a two year window or as long as the Canadian division survives. Manson/ekholm might not be quite the swing I would be after but definitely a start. I’m no help with right answer unless Carolina/wash/pit/dal/nyi go into sell mode for some reason. Would be nice to find the right big large rhd not named bufuglien to take this team on a run.

Ya never question accountabilities or passion for the game, with them in the line up. I thought the Jets may have there own in Lemieux, but they sure shipped him in a hurry, and he may never prove to play in top 6 though either.

Jets fan here, and growing up with pops, I was hoping that Chevy was going to get crazy in those drafts and some how get back up and get Mathew after laine and again go get Brady. But no luck, would have taken some Burke magic of getting the sedin twins, but a few years apart may have made it easier.

Or they package that pick and add a Tkachuk for the battle of Alberta, looking a little one sided right now, possibly swing it back to the south

Drop the draftpick down or a lesser d prospect and I’m not sure if calgary does it, going to be a question either way, when a deal is made. Hurts a little both ways, but yes might be early for ottawa to be dealing picks or prospects for established nhlers

If bear wasn’t protected, there would be quite a lineup of teams lining up with a package for his services. Expansion exempt Vegas would probably be high on the list.

I just see all these eichel trades to all these lottery teams, and don’t understand them. Picking Jets build is just a habit lol sorry. West is just as much a cake walk to Col/Vegas/stlouis than the north is. At least there is some question of the top 4 teams. Florida lighting the world on fire, how good can that division be? It’s a crapshoot til the final four is solved and we will see who is cup bound. Leafs/Vegas and isles/Tb and a Vegas/isles is my cup prediction.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>arafay</b></div><div>The thing is that with one move like this, the jest will be a top team in the division. I think the first is worth that.

Also, poolman came back from covid and is getting better. Obviously it takes time but I’m not too worried about any of the players getting long term safety’s from the virus (except for ones who already have a medical condition).</div></div>
Beaulieu is kind of funny, can be solid, but more starts in a row, seems like more lost he gets. Healthy scratch every 3/4 games could pay some dividends for him. Ya I’m all for a rhd purchase for whatever it takes, ideally somebody a healthy upgrade and possibly some term.

Risto is slow to coming back to the lineup from covid, I wonder if it’s just precautionary or if there’s an issue. I always hate giving up firsts but yes it can be definitely time to upgrade rhd

Well put, I don’t think kings a fit, sped up rebuild possibly, but just like the youth movement on going, and the next nucleus isn’t deep enough or ready for a franchise changing trade in my opinion, not yet another year or two and future in net and on blueline cemented, have at it, but right now trust the process keep the build. Kind of the same in ottawa, just like the transition in la get some of the old money off the books and in with the new before the big splash.

Mtl, Vegas, Vancouver, calgary, could also be in the mix, all depending on if Buffalo sells it as a rebuild or retool. Depends if it’s capdumps/kids/picks back or some value to the cap coming back.

Pretty sure he doesn’t want to go to buffalo of the west, especially with that cost, no kids to save the day, Buffalo should jump all over that probably 2/3 lottery picks
