Speculation: 2024/25 Trade Rumours, Speculation etc Thread

[Mad Dog Tannen]

I think chemistry on defense lasts a few years. Like Mo-Melo. De Melo might fall off sooner. Salomonsson on top pair should be the goal.

What a great example to illustrate on signing Pionk.

This is not specific to you - it’s a great example that a lot of Jets fans have shown similar sentiment.

We JUST signed DeMelo to an extension this summer. Not even a year.

It has gone from “yes we have locked up 1rd to pair with JMO for the next few years!!” To “ugh we need to move DeMelo down the lineup. He is not a viable 1d.” It’s been like 8 months. Lol.

How long until we are like “ugh. Demelos contract is killing me”.

Oh jets fans. We are awesome, lol.

I literally can’t imagine it being a good long term decision to sign pionk at high dollars. But I’d love to be proven wrong!!!

The Jets have over 40M of cap space next year. Where are they going to spend that if not on Pionk?

For a measly 0.5 million per annum, I could write their "Runway" pieces. Not gonna rule out a coelacanth heavy themed approach.

A Samberg-Dobson pairing would look unreal for years

I've made this comp before, but this would be our Duncan Keith-Brent Seabrook pairing, and they'd both be 26 or under at the start of next season..

Dobson is the kind of player you empty your futures load for. Not the rinky-dinky spending 1sts on rentals.

If he is truly available and willing to sign an extension I am offering 2025 1st, 2026 1st (unprotected), Barlow, Iafallo and NYI's pick of one of He or Walton.

Re-sign him for $8.5 million and move on from Pionk in the summer.

I want no part of Oleksiak and giving of two first-round picks for McCann is too much.

It would be alot , i don't think i would give up 2 1st's either but McCaan has term and i think would be in our top 6 for a couple of years . He has played center so a second line with him Ehlers and Perfetti might be very good. Oleksiak isn't great i agree but he would be a step up on Stanley and he has size as well. I just think adding them would definitely make the Jets even better and we are damn good right now.

Seattle fans say that McCann is barely adequate at center. I hope Chevy stays away from Oleksiak.

Maybe with who McCaan would be playing with he would flourish though. Do you like Stanley more than Oleksiak?

Stanley doesn't make 4.6 million per year.

I do recall McCann never really did well down the middle, there is a good reason the Kraken play the likes of Wright, Stephenson and Berniers over him at centre.

Fantastic winger though but yeah doesn't really solve our 2C woes so not a fan of giving up much for him.

I would love to have him on the team but not at the cost of two first round picks. Also, do we need another left winger?

No one is giving 2 first round picks for McCann. H’d be a nice add, but that valuation was ridiculous.

Yeah if we are going wingers then RW would be far more desirable, think Boeser etc. Both Fetts and Ehlers play better on the left wing and with another top 6 righty we could run Ehlers as 2LW and Fetts as 3LW.
