Yes and i could kick as at rec hockey back in 2017-18... guy lafleur had amazing playoff runs too lets sign his corpse

Can't be worse than Ehlers honestly.

Count the points and suddenly he was able to play defense comments from the spread sheet watchers. They made Svechnikov look like a NHL player.


Revisonist history. Yeah.... it was all Dubois fault. LMAO

He certainly didn't help much.

You dont hold scheif to that standard... and everyone lets pionk use his foot as an excuse... back issues seem legit to me

The main difference is both of those players have performed in the playoffs. Nik hasn't yet.

What a lame response.

Sorry reality doesn't fit your narrative.

I like nik but a guy who disappears when games matter isn't worth big bucks.

I'm trying to remember when Chevy lost a player especially a very good one that we drafted, for absolutely nothing. It hasn't happened and i really don't it will with Ehlers . Chevy will know if Ehlers doesn't want to sign and make a trade but i for 1 think Ehlers is going to re-sign .

The whole offseason began with Ehlers agent leaking that he wouldn't re-sign or maybe that was just banter, but it did seem like Chevy was trying to land a 1st and a player for Ehlers or Mc Groarty at the draft, and that quickly died, and you wonder if the offers came in low with Ehlers back/hernia in question, through another media source.

So you play the cards you're dealt. If Ehlers has more value to the team than any trade return, Chevy has to show he is playing to win, and not trade in for tomorrow.

Ehlers is in a good situation this year. Whatever happens he is going to get paid as a top 25/30 regular season point producer as long as the PP clicks.

If we trade Nik we absolutely need to ensure it helps the team right now. Sure we can move him for a futures based package but that sends a pretty piss poor message to the players.
Otherwise we should keep him as an own rental and see what happen come the offseason, it's a bigger risk for sure but I feel like shipping out a top 6 player right now while the team is performing is a good way to crater moral.

Did he actually say he wouldn’t re-sign? I don’t remember it being that direct of a statement.

Id also say that while you never want to lose an asset for nothing, the Jets have some replacement buns in the oven. Organizationally at F I feel like we're pretty strong, with Lambert and Chibrikov close and looking like top 6 options, and Lucius, Barlow and Yaeger less solid but still potential contributors.

I think the Jets could better absorb Ehlers walking to FA at this point so if we have to use him as an own rental it makes the most sense.
