<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>tsyls</b></div><div>Dude, Heinola already should be playing 1st pair. He’s already arguably our best dman, he’s just undersized and we already have a bunch of dman like that. If you’ve never watched him play I understand why you’d say this, but all Heinola needs to do is put on a bit of weight and get a bit stronger and he should be our number 1 in a year. He’s that good. He’s not 2-3 years from top pairing level, he’s pretty much there.</div></div>

Thanks- I’ve watched him play for Jets, Lukko, and WJC. I’m very familiar with his play, but I don’t think his ceiling will approximate best top 5 dmen in the league, like Hamilton.

To me, his play is somewhere between Enstrom and Heiskanen, but who knows when he may get to that point. I think that he’ll turn into a very good player, but would prefer taking the best chance Jets have ever had at a Cup now.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>arafay</b></div><div>There’s absolutely no way the jets move either of Samberg or heinola, forget both. That and a first? That’s a woeful overpayment for a rental. Even stone only got brannstrom and a 2nd and he came with an extension. Heinola arguably has the same value as brannstrom did then and there’s no way the jets move heinola. He’s a future top pairing guy if he isn’t already (damn I wish the jets gave him more games)

And you add another top prospect and a first? Massive overpayment for Hamilton, especially unsigned</div></div>

If he comes with a contract I could see it. Weak draft, this may be the best opportunity we have to win a cup for years, and we’re trading back 4m of cap. It might be too rich, but Hamilton would completely overhaul our blue line for the next 5 years. In essence, we wish that Heinola would someday become what Hamilton is now... so the cost of Samberg and a 1st is just expediting the process that may never come true.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Drw4209</b></div><div>Zero chance Krug signs with Jets, It's Boston or Detroit and Yzerman isn't paying an early 3rd for Roslovic and a salary dump</div></div>
Feel however you may about FA coming to Winnipeg. If it’s the difference between potentially winning again before your career ends AND making the money you deserve, I don’t think Krug signs in either Boston or Detroit. I could totally be wrong, however. Is a magic bean 3rd really not worth Roslovic? I think he has offensive skill, but is better off as a winger and doesn’t fit our lineup. Salary dump is for the remainder of the year and actual cash is 4M vs the 4.5M cap.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>BStinson</b></div><div>Do you value Roslovic or Copp more? I’d personally prefer to have Copp in the deal.</div></div>
I’d prefer to keep Copp because of his work on the defensive side of the puck.
