Thread: I mean if they wanna go for it
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>BeterChiarelli</b></div><div>A third-line winger producing like a 4th-line winger for a marginally cheaper defender on a team that doesn't actually have an NHL blueline at the moment and a high C/low B-prospect? Since when did Perreault become the second coming of Christ?</div></div>

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>MisstheWhalers</b></div><div>The Jets don't have the forward depth to be trading Perreault and Russell isn't much of an improvement on any of the Jets LHD other then Bitetto.

Also Perreault would likely be producing better if Lowry wasn't the least productive center in the league.</div></div>

<a href="/users/MisstheWhalers" target="_blank">@MisstheWhalers</a> Couldn’t say it better myself.

The blue line is better than most say it is. And Russel won’t help it even if we do get him. We need one more top 4 guy. Maybe that’s niku eventually (hopefully) and maybe we just ride it out until buff is back (if he even does) but Russel is no improvement and moving perreault is not the right move for the jets at the moment

And let’s not get sarcastic if you don’t mind.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>MisstheWhalers</b></div><div>Might want to temper expectations for Samberg, he's nothing special and will likely need a season in the AHL.
I had high hopes for him but after watching him play live recently and watching all his games at the last two World Juniors imo he's a low end #4 dman at best, he'll be better then Stanley but that isn't saying much.

So having said that they'll probably have to address the defense through a trade or free agency next summer unless one of the prospects with the takes a big step this season or if they're content to go into next season with Morrissey, Pionk, Niku and Heinola as a top 4 D next season.</div></div>

You clearly haven’t seen enough of him. He is a beast who can do everything. I’ve seen a lot of him and imo he will be at least a Brandon Carlo type. Maybe even more if he can hone in his offensive side

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Spleenmaster1002</b></div><div>Gus should probably be sent back to Sweden. However he has played more than 9 games, so could we call him back from loan if needed? Not fully sure on those rules. Would kinda suck to burn a year off his ELC just to play him in like 11 games, but I know the whole team imploded with injuries so we couldn’t do anything about that.

But yeah Harkins has been really good as of late, if he can keep this up for a while I see no reason not to call him up. 17 points in 15 games for 5th in the AHL is great. Niku at 11 points in 10 is fantastic as well, we need to call him up and send Sbisa/Potato (or both lol) to the waiver wire. Maybe keep Bitetto around since the guys seem to like him so it probably wouldn’t hurt to keep him just to keep up morale.

Also a little thing, but Letestu is out for like 6 months so he’s probably done for the season.</div></div>

Gus will probably be sent to the moose unless he prefers to go back to sweden

Completely forgot about letestu lol

Thread: Risto
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Cheesesauce</b></div><div>Well, see for yourself, we have Dahlin, McCabe, Scandella, Gilmour and Pilut, plus 3-4 more prospects in the organization, two of them seem solid. I just don’t see Buffalo and Winnipeg as good trading partners at the moment, since it’s obvious that we don’t see conditional Ehlers for Risto and this is rightly, Roslovic could be the main part of the return, but this season he is apparently good for you and he is not trading, Perreault could be useful to us, of course, but he doesn’t cost much, and the picks and the middle prospects do nothing for us, we need help ahead here and now. 2C or RW in top 6.</div></div>

Again just the more reason why risto won’t be coming to the peg

Thanks for the insight though

Thread: Next year
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>The_Ultimate_Pielord</b></div><div>40 ES points would've placed him 4th on the team last year, 10 ahead of Ehlers and 13 above Laine. Perrault had 7 total Special teams points. To make 60 points out of that, he'd need to be one of the team's most productive players and triple the production of the guy he's replacing on the PP.

At 2C we should probably expect a little under 30 points at 5v5 and hopefully get a little above that at evens. With some PP production he comes to 45-50. Anything more than that is IMO a big reach.</div></div>

Fair enough. Ehlers was injured half the year last year and Laine has a down year so not a rest comparison. However I get what ur saying. I still don’t think 60 is a big reach but realistically if he is inbetween Laine and ehlers m, I would expect at least 45 pts (little)
