Lets get it done and move on
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Lenny7</b></div><div>Well, right off the bat I'd say that Bjokstrand won't be moving given that they just extended him.
I could see PLD+mid level asset (Maybe a dman) for Laine+Roslo, but I just don't realistically see PLD ending up in Winnipeg. I think Laine is exceptional, but also think PLD's all around game/position make him just as valuable.</div></div>
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Windjammer</b></div><div>I think most people agree with what you have. I know some people point to Dubois being a center and better defensively. But when you have 2 players that are the same age and Laine has more than twice the amount of goals and almost 1.5 times the points of Dubois it easily cancels out that perceived advantage. Defense can be taught, scoring can't.</div></div>
Roslovic has averaged .40PPG in an almost uniquely bottom 6 role. Bjorkstrand has averaged .48PPG playing predominantly a top 6 role. Rosy is 2 years younger and can play Centre. You can't tell me that Dubois's value goes up as a C but not Roslovic's. I don't see too much of a value difference between Roslovic and Bjorkstrand to most managers.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>masterjuddi</b></div><div>Laine and PLD are close in value, but I think you gotta give the edge to PLD based on the position he plays and the defensive side of his game.
No way the BJ's give up Bjorkstrand in a deal like this or really at all. I think Laine and Roslovic for PLD is a fair trade for both teams.
I also like the narrative of this deal. Only Finish GM in the league acquires young sniper and local kid for disgruntled C</div></div>
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Windjammer</b></div><div>Value wise it is close. Laine is better than Dubois by a larger margin than Bjorkstrand is better than Roslovic. It's probably easier to simplify it to a Laine for Dubois trade.</div></div>
I just can't imagine Chevy completing a trade with Columbus that doesn't include disgruntled, Columbus native Roslovic.

Value-wise, this is a significantly one sided deal in favor of Winnipeg.</div></div>
I still believe Laine will have a better career than Dubois. Rosy is younger than Bjorkstrand and a Columbus native. Both would help the Blue Jackets at the box office. If you kept these four pieces in the trade, what do you see Winnipeg adding?

Perfetti isn't quite ready to take on an NHL top 6 role. Give him a couple years. Vatanen wouldn't sign for a third pairing role. Offer him top 4 with Pionk and PP1 and I think that would be a tempting 1 year deal.

Long term outlook
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>MisstheWhalers</b></div><div>This description is very wrong, it's been reported that Roslo prefers to play center, he knows the coach won't give him that chance and Roslo knows his career is in the toilet playing with Lowry and Copp who are total stonehands hence the trade request, the Jets should sign Roslovic and make him 3C, just more mismanagement by Chevy and Maurice, I can't blame the kid for wanting out.</div></div>
Description wasn't too far off your perspective. Rosy always wanted to be the #2 guy to form the 27-28-29 line. Even changed his number to make sure Maurice could see it daily. I think he was willing to grow his game and try to prove to the Jets he belonged there. By drafting Perfetti and bringing back Stastny, the Jets organization sent Roslovic the clear message that they don't see him as 2C now or in the future. I've put him as 3C where I agree with you he belongs on this roster. He wants more than 3C. I'd love a bottom 6 of the 2015 line (Harkins-Rosy-Appleton) and Copp-Lowry-Vesalainen/???.

I favour trades with forwards coming back... Ideally a RW. I think the Jets D will be fine in the long term with Samberg, Heinola, Niku and Chisholm in development.

I wish the Jets had a couple more right handed shots. RW gets shallow beyond Wheeler and Laine without Rosy unless you move Ehlers onto his off wing.

Thread:
Jets side of previous marner deal
Marner's contract makes this deal far worse than "just" Laine and a first. It is the cost of signing both a quality UFA on D and at F this season and is easily $2M more than Laine will resign for next season and beyond. Marner is not a top 20 talent in the NHL but is getting paid the 7th highest AAV. No matter how good a player is, a bad contract for the team puts a stink on them that won't go away.

I really like Matty P and he's be a great 4th liner if he didnt make so much money. Like you said, moving him frees up space for other guys, 4.1 could be enough for both Hamonic and Haula on 1 year deals</div></div>
Only 1 year. Still a reasonable roster option, especially in OTT. I would think a 3rd or a guy like Mackenzie who won't get a shot with the NHL on the Jets.

With $4+M salary of Perreault sitting in the press box, you could give each of them a $1M raise and see how much trading away his salary costs in picks/prospects.

I'm hopeful that with the eastern teams having to complete waaay more travel than in a typical week and with the Jets not having to play against a steady diet of central division foes, that Winnipeg will do better than these projections. That said, I'm a complete homer.

Seems wasteful for the Jets to blow ELC contract years on a condensed season. Perfetti, Samberg and Heinola may get to see their 9 (or whatever pro-rated amount they are allowed) games but I can't see any of them sticking with the club for the "full" season.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>OttBeavers</b></div><div>Yeah those would be pretty good additions. The only glitch I see in your plan is buying out Perreault. Mr Chipman has a long history of not doing buy outs. The Jets are a small market team and if my memory is correct the only player in Jets 2.0 to be bought out was Mark Stuart. Compare that to a team like Philly. /Rangers. Etc....</div></div>
Then it will cost them a pick to save $1.5m. Or an Armia type player.

Draft and Develop and Waste
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>masterjuddi</b></div><div>Maurice loves his vets and, youre right, some of these guys are blocking young kids from coming up.
I would say that the jets have developed a lot of their players and done it the right way. Scheifle, Ehlers, Laine, Connor, Morrisey, Bucky, Copp, Lowry, Appleton etc are all examples of this. Also, it isn't like they added D that will block Heinola or Samberg. Outside of Beaulieu, each depth guy is a one year deal at close to the league minimum.
I still want the jets to add a top 4 Dman
I like the Haula deal too.</div></div>
Is it just me or are all of these 1 year contracts going to cause problems when it comes to the expansion draft. Don't we need 3F, 2D and 1G exposed that have played the 40 games and under contract? I was surprised that they signed Brossoit to a 1 year deal.

What the Jets should do with Laine
The Scheifele-Wheeler bromance has cost them two first round picks (by having to trade for Stastny and Hayes) and their goodwill with Laine and Roslovic. Had they just moved Wheeler to the 2C position in the first place, the captain would have done more for his team than anything. We should have had Ehlers-Scheifele-Laine, Connor-Little-Wheeler or Connor-Wheeler-Roslovic whenever Little was injured.
