Speculation: 2024/25 Trade Rumours, Speculation etc Thread

I guess my original point was (or should've been) that, aside from Reinhart, who's turned into an elite player since leaving Buffalo, players are who they are even post-Buffalo.

Cozens looks like a *terrible* bet - one good year, poor defensively, grossly overpaid for 5 more years after this one...and a high trade cost to boot? Dear God, no!

Yep. If Scheifele is considered a defensive liability, not sure the game plan would be to put another RHC behind him who is also considered a defensive liability.

I'd rather have Whilee's guy Ryan Mc Leod, because he fills the PK need, and had an impressive showing in the Oilers run last year. And the Jets don't have the assets to go big game hunting.

Ideally I'd love Chibby and Salo with the big club next year. Lambo hasn't been awful but Im higher on nikita

I see Ryan Lindgren has been linked to us according to Friedman.

I still think the Rangers try to move him to find a true top pairing d-man to play with Adam Fox.

I think a bit of down year decreases his value. Where maybe he's moved for a 3rd round pick and potentially Tyrel Bauer, who was teammates with Rempe in Seattle., and from Alberta like him.

I thought the Fleury-Stanley experiment was to see what a skating LD looks like with Stan in the lineup, and maybe the Jets go for the upgrade there, and run Stan/Miller on the right side.

Can't see the trigger being pulled until closer to the deadline, if the Jets want to keep Heinola and Fleury for depth, without being able to expand the roster. Sounds like Barron won't be back until close to the deadline, so there is some room to maneuver there.

If Nathan Beaulieu 2.0 is what the Jets want, then Ryan Lindgren all the way!

Hard no on Lindgren. Fringe NHL defenseman that has rode the coattails of some very good dmen on the Rangers. IMO he would be an ill-advised acquisition at any price, including for free on waivers.

That's pretty funny I'll give you that.
