Thread: IF JETS REBUILD
I think a lot of people are underrating Sheifele's value. More than a ppg 1C on a criminally cheap deal for the next 2 years. Not to mention hes a righty. Winnipeg doesnt have that much in the pipeline up the middle for a few more years. Perfetti and Barron are solid pieces so far but since i'm not positive Dubois is staying, I dont see Winnipeg trading Scheifele. Unless theyre given a deal they cant refuse. Doesnt make much sense to trade a 1C of his caliber in his prime just to get younger or more prospects. Because of the fact that the jets are the age they are, a rebuild doesnt make any sense to me. Connor, Ehlers, Morrissey, Pionk, Hellebuyck. Too many guys that are into their primes on this team. I seriously doubt any of them would want to go into a rebuild or retool and wait longer to compete. A Scheifele trade only works if they blow it sky high and trade everyone of value

Thread: Sorokin Big Contract
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>ALjet12</b></div><div>Sorokin negotiate tactic is going to be that the cap is going to raise dramatically when his RFA Contract is done and Shesterkin can command anywhere between 8.5 - 9.5 million as the #1 goaltender in the league, so Sorokin is not far behind him. It also puts the isles in a crunch if Sorokin has a better next two years than Shesterkin because of superior defense behind him compare to the Rangers.</div></div>

Few things haha. Firstly, Shesterkin isn't the best in the world, top 3 no doubt, but Vasilevskiy comfortably holds that title. Second, he's currently a UFA so that only really hurts the islanders. If he has a great next season but holds off on signing an extension, that could be worse for the islanders. because if he has a great season in the last year of this contract then he could be tempted to hit the market for big bucks because the cap WILL be going up and someone is going to be willing to pay him north of 8 mil to have him on their team. regarless of what Igor does this year, i think it would be wise to give sorokin an extension after this season so you can guarantee you have him. because like i said in my last comment, there is a shortage of elite goaltenders and it make be a few more years to find and go after an elite guy on the market or someone young coming into that category.

Thread: Who says no
It interesting to me for sure. in my opinion i don't get what all the panic is from colorado fans about not having a bonified 2C. the route that i would go is slide compher into 2C and give him a chance. hes more than capable of being a two way second line center. no, hes not going to put up the same numbers as kadri or someone of higher offensive caliber, but I think its a much better idea to do one of these few options im going to list.

Newhook and Compher can battle it out for 2C but if either of them can't carry the load, then just slide Landeskog into the middle and split up him and Mackinnon. Avs are a deep team even after losing all of last years rentals, and they have a lot of options for guys who can play center well enough. The reason i don't see their 2C "problem" as being a huge problem, is because last year they proved they are a 4 line team and can rely on every line, rather than their top 6 or their top line carrying the entire team like an Edmonton, Boston or Calgary.
