Thread: Contenders Again
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Dwight_Schrute</b></div><div>I’m an Oiler fan. I’ve thought that mid level prospects were the cure for a long time. I’m just saying step carefully into commitment to that plan. Expecting 3 rookies that not many people outside of Winnipeg have ever heard of to elevate you to contender status is a dangerous game</div></div>

Oh trust me I know it’s happened in the past. I guess people who don’t watch the jets or follow the them seriously wouldn’t know these guys but if you’re a dedicated fan you know them and how solid they are. I do think we’re going to need to make some staffing changes first before anything changes haha. God our coaches just aren’t getting it done. Our systems are failing and things need to change in that department before anything serious happens.

Thread: LAK Trade
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>OldNYIfan</b></div><div>Okay, now we're on a different subject than the one I originally addressed. Looking at the trade as suggested, I agree that Roslovic is of greater value than a second. I wouldn't object to that or your offer, either. By the way, the reason why I suggested Samberg is that he isn't signed yet and the prospect rating service I look at has Niku, Heinola and Stanley ahead of him, so I was going for what I understand to be your fourth-best LhD prospect.</div></div>

Ahhhh okay I see, like Jetman said if Kulikov is a deal breaker he can be moved somewhere else as a dump but I do think the deal proposed is very solid. I’m glad we’re on the same page for that. Yeah I guess maybe Samberg not being signed and his age maybe lowers him. He’s a dominant force in the NCAA and will most likely be a 2nd pairing guy next year. I think he’s our best d prospect as he’s NHL ready now. I guess maybe heinola could be better.

Thread: LAK Trade
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>OldNYIfan</b></div><div>I was answering the question posed in the Team Explanation, not the question of whether the trade is fair. I told the team constructor what I thought the two players were worth, but think that said value would change if Winnipeg insisted on including (or had to include, for cap reasons) Kulikov in the trade.

Consistent with my evaluation, if I were constructing a trade of Toffoli and Martinez to Winnipeg, here's what I think Winnipeg should give us:

2020 second
2021 second
Dylan Samberg (because you have Niku, Heinola and Stanley on that side already)
Michael Spacek or Johnathan Kovacevic or Simon Lundmark

LA could retain on both in order to comply with your cap situation.

That doesn't get you under, so add Kulikov (if he agrees) and we add the Calgary fourth.</div></div>

I understand your valuation. But you got to factor roslovics value in to this. Also Samberg is our best D prospect so he’s not getting moved. I think the most wed offer is 2021 1st + Niku + Spacek + Kulikov for cap reasons. We’d obviously have to include a condition on the first that it’s top 10 protected. It’s either roslovic or a 1st.

Thread: LAK Trade
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Jetman</b></div><div>Thats my thought regarding Kulikov...He is a piece to replace Mart for the remainder of the year...My thought on this was Rosy for Toffoli and Stanley, 2nd, 3rd for A Mart and a 4th</div></div>

Exactly, I don’t get how kulikov affects this lmfao. But I don’t mind the move. It’s just not what I would make as Jets are going to go on a slide, including last nights game it’s likely they go 2-8 in the next 10. Playoffs are way out of reach imo. The underlying numbers show that our team isn’t even playing that good. The only reason we’re even close to a playoff spot is because of our goaltending at the start of the year and the shooting pct we had at the start of the year. Our systems are failing and that’s purely on the coaches. But I mean it doesn’t help when we have an extremely depleted blueline.

Thread: Trade WPG CAR COL
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>mhan63</b></div><div>Has Vesalainen fallen out of favor in WPG? Seems like an overpay for Skjei.</div></div>

No he hasn’t fallen out of favour. Chevy has been patient with him, this is his first full year in NA and as of late his game has picked up. He got the call up and is going to play tonight. Jets have a bonehead coach that thinks it’s a good idea to put him on the 4th line lol. I don’t like this trade for WPG especially considering they will slide. I can guarantee that. Including last nights game vs CAR they’re going to go 2-8 at best. I don’t see WPG even coming close to playoffs this year. The only reason they’re close now is because of Hellebuycks heroics early this season. They need to be retooling not buying this TDL.

I get that Skjei is 25 and on a decent contract. But we already have jomo to be our top pairing LD and Samberg who is a beast in college should be able to play top 4 next year. This isn’t a trade worth it for wpg. It just creates a log jam on D.

Thread: Solidifying the blueline for cup run
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>HabsRafiki</b></div><div>Calgary would be insane not to take that deal. Hanifin is topping out short of his projected upside and might not even be the best player in this trade. Roslovic is getting better and better and who knows what the #1 pick might become if Winnipeg doesn't make the playoffs or gets thumped in the first round. And even if you "lottery protect" this year, there's no guarantee that next year won't be even worse.</div></div>

It’s interesting to see you say this. I thought hanifin was pretty good from what I’ve seen, he’s only 22 and on a good deal. I wasn’t sure of the value so I’m glad to get some feedback. Maybe just Stanley and the first is fair, remember I said that trade happens at the draft and it’s the #15 OA pick. Or maybe Roslovic and a 3rd is fair? I have no idea.
