Speculation: 2024/25 Trade Rumours, Speculation etc Thread

[surixon]

The problem with getting a winger like Boeser is that it will be at the cost of demoting Perfetti to the 4th line, or even to the press box. So how much increase in value does Boeser add over Perfetti? I'm not sure it would be worth the price.

One option might be if the Jets decide to move Ehlers to get some more trade assets and the Jets think they can re-sign Boeser. Could maybe add a 2C and Boeser, with Ehlers out?

Connor-Scheifele-Vilardi
Perfetti-Nelson-Boeser
Nino-Lowry-Appleton

Would be risky to gamble on this big a change to a team that's humming, including the PP.

The only way it would make sense to me if they actually plan playing fly with Lowry and go with three scoring lines.

KC Scheifele Vilardi
Fly Lowry Boeser
Perfetti Vlad Nino
Iafallo Kupari Appelton

I'm also always skeptical of adding a player with modest production while getting top line and top pp usage (Both of which Brock gets in Vancouver). Perfetti has been the better player this year.

If I’m moving Ehlers, I’m looking at Dobson or Pulock…not Boeser

 

[10Ducky10]

Potential. Big center that just turned 24 and was really playing well a couple years ago until he got hurt. Might just need a fresh start.

No thanks.
38 points is the most he's ever scored.
Let the habs keep him.

Problem is that Ehlers is a pending UFA and won't have as much value at this point.

Who’s fly?

True, but if they can work something out in advance…

Ehlers, you haven't heard that nickname of his?

 

[CanMerc]

I’d be ok with picking up Boeser if he’s cheap enough, to check him out before we try to extend him, but he’d have to be cheap enough to make it worthwhile. As mentioned above, he was pretty good in the playoffs last year and we could definitely use that

Ehlers, you haven't heard that nickname of his?

No…have now though…lol

Ok…so new topic…
Jonathan Toews joining the Jets next season.
Rumour is he’s interested and Chevy is interested, just a matter of if he’s in shape and game ready by next season.
Obviously he’d be a bottom 6 C, but does he bump Names and if so, do the Jets let Names go in favour of Toews.

Good idea?
Bad idea?
Wait and see?

He bumps Appleton.

 

[Mortimer Snerd]

I remember when he was available before the Habs got him I was one of those who wanted him to come to the Jets

And I wanted him for PLD. Sometimes you win by losing.

If anything it would atleast be good for Jersey and ticket sales.

No clue what he'd be able to give in terms of on ice impact.

IF the price was right, he would be worth a shot. That's a big if.

I don't think it's likely either, but there is an outside chance depending on whomever else might be interested if he thinks the Jets have the best chance to win. Slightly difference situations, but similar to Stastny.

I still don't see why Seattle would move him. Maybe if someone gives them a big overpay, but why would anyone do that?

 

[10Ducky10]

Montreal traded Romanov and a fourth rounder for the Islanders 13th pick overall. They then added a third rounder to the 13th overall for Dach.
So they gave up Romanov and a third and a fourth for Dach.

I always have trouble with the argument of that move will just push someone down the lineup. That is pretty much the idea of TDL moves. If some miracle happened and we landed McDavid, that would push Scheifele to #2 center. Yeah okay. I think at this point while Perfetti might get pushed down the lineup, he has established himself enough he won’t get pushed off it.

Exactly

Boeser isn't an upgrade on Perfetti in that situation

He's an upgrade on whoever gets pushed out of the line up

It all comes down to what kind of lineup Arniel wants to run, and whether or not he's married to having Lowry run a shutdown line with Nino and Apples. If not, he can get very creative running two well balanced lines in his middle six:

Ehlers Lowry Boeser
Nino Names Perfetti

All good points and honestly man, the bolded is what came to mind. And I like Ehlers but I do have to wonder what is on the horizon with him.

I don't mind the idea of pushing a player down the lineup, but if it's not a big upgrade then it's not worth a hefty price. So it could be worth a lot to upgrade from Namestnikov to Nelson, but not so much to go from Perfetti to Boeser. Last year, the Jets paid a price to get Toffoli, but he turned out to not be a step up from Perfetti.

 

[The Unknown Poster]

Stastny only waived to join the Jets for a few months. Then he signed with Vegas, before making his way back to Winnipeg as a UFA at the tail end of his career. I just think it's unlikely that a player with more than a year left on their contract and a NTC would waive to come to Winnipeg. It's not impossible, but I think it makes a trade highly unlikely. I suppose it might be possible for a player that is on a bottom-dwelling team that is a bit of toxic situation and has just one more season, but historically the Jets have only ever acquired one player that waived a NTC to come to Winnipeg for more than a few months (Schmidt).

My recollection with Stastny was that he liked Wpg but the Jets didn’t want to go three years, only two. The irony being that he ended up traded back to the jets in what would have been the third year the jets didn’t want to give him.

 

[Jet]

Habs fan posted on main boards that Kirby Dach might be available. Might be tension between him and team management.
24yr old, right shot C, making 3 362 500 for 1 more year after this, then RFA
Currently, this season has 10G, 12A in 56GP.
Not great stats, but might be able to turn it around..he’s still young.
Hes a big body, 6’4, 216.

Haven’t watched a lot of hockey this season, and haven’t seen much of Montreal at all, so don’t really know how he’s playing.

Current season stats (whatever the hell these mean)
TOI 698
GF% 34.90
DFF% 45.80
REL DFF% -3.00
CF% 44.60
REL CF% -5.40
G60 0.60
P60 1.12

Is he back from outer space after that Barron hit?

 

[Mad Dog Tannen]

This is dream scenario territory.

Imagine this team having:

JoMo
Dobson
Samberg
DeMelo
Salo
Pick Your 3rd Pair LD

All locked and loaded in the ~27-28M ballpark for the foreseeable future with the cap rising.

Sheesh.

Okay, I'll stop dreaming now.

Well I pick Stanley obviously.

 

[scarbrow]

Well I pick Stanley obviously.

I like:
JMo-Melo
Samberg-Dobson

We know what that 1st pair can do but I think Snerg and Dobson would compliment each other even better, arguably they'd be the top pair even based on metrics.
Costs you Perfetti or Vilardi + though. I'd pay it as top RHD are so hard to find

I’d easily pay Perfetti+ for Dobson

 

[Thechozen1]

Either Bjork or McCann would be nice adds IMO.

Agree on Oleksiak.

Get Bjorkstrand or McCann and then Ferraro from the Sharks and call it a day. Send Ville to San Jose where he should get a legitimate shot to stick in the lineup.

I’d like Bjorkstrand and Dumoulin, though I’m still gonna hold out hope Chevy can somehow get Dobson and/or ROR, though personally, if I had to choose 1, I’d prefer Dobson
