Speculation: 2024/25 Trade Rumours, Speculation etc Thread

Nelson is just another monohan.. don't get desperate and over pay... rather pursue a wing at that point maybe a laughton aswell.. Nelson really that big of an upgrade.. don't see what he brings to the table outside of experience and lil extra scoring touch

He has the size and grit teams love for the playoffs but I agree don't overpay. He skated a lot better than Monohan as well.

 

[Royale With Cheese]

Neither of those would be what I’d call a 2C.
Hayes didn’t work out at all and I don think Monahan s a 2C for our team.

Well, they were acquired by the Jets to be 2C, so I'm not sure what else to say. Whether the fans think they were that or not, IDK.

 

[avtarb]

Sure but his numbers aren't that special.. better skater with some grit.. I'm sure there's decent plan b options that bring similar traits to the table

Monahan was worth a 2nd and Chevy paid a 1st…Nelson is worth a 1st + 3rd as a rental, so it’s unlikely Chevy overpays to much…maybe 1st + 2nd value + small add kinda deal, which is an over pay but we’ll see.
Wing does nothing to help our need at C. Getting a winger with term or a lesser C with term like McCann or Laughton, means we still need a 2C next year but now we have less cap to do it with.

I'd pay the price, because this is as good as it gets. Have the feeling that every year after this one will be a disappointment in some way.

I'll go a step further and say it would be a good opportunity to split up KC and Scheifele, have Connor and Nelson as a potential 1B line. Move Ehlers short shifts with Scheifele's long shifts, and maybe there is some balance there, and Scheif shoots the puck more.

Wait….Driedger….when did this happen

 

[CanMerc]

Damn…Sturm to FLA…as a fan of Dragonlance, I wanted Sturm

I still remember playing a game against Seattle, they were winning with less than 2 minutes to go. Soucy took the most bone-headed penalty possible, we scored on the power play to tie, and won it in OT. I hope that’s the full extent of Soucy’s positive contribution to the Jets’ success.

Pionk has his flaws for sure, but he's a top 4 RHD and as you said, those dont grow on trees.

In addition to everything you said, he also seems like a quality dude and fits in well in the room

I'm not sure what next year looks like due to another year of term for Miller, but beyond that, I think that Demelo - Pionk - Salo is the right side for a foreseeable time

You are probably right, though Salo might swap places with DeMelo fairly quickly.

But the problem I see with Pionk is 3 things. The AAV on his next contract, The term of his next contract and putting together 2 or more relatively good seasons in a row.

I won't like the hole he leaves if he walks but I won't like the contract he gets if he stays.

The only good picture I see is if he walks and we pick up a good RD either in FA or by trade and both of those are bit of long shots.

how would you guys feel about this?

No effing way would I include Perfetti, even if Nelson is extended.

 

[Hank Chinaski]

3 words, NTC.

Good point. Didn’t realize he had NTC.

I can’t believe we’re in an era where Brian Dumoulin and Carson f***ing Soucy have trade protection in their contracts. Wild.

 

[Bob E]

Might have to wait till tomorrow to see if Nelson signs or not??

 

[Jetabre]

Cmon Brock tell em you refuse to sign and wont go anywhere other than Winnipeg as you believe it's your best chance at a cup and force isles to sell you cheap

 

[Buffdog]

If I'm Lou, I'm telling those guys they can add 500K/year in July to those deals if they agree to go elsewhere for a cup run

 

[gojetsgo]

lebrun on overdrive after saying how hard it is for lou to waive the white flag says he feels nelson will be dealt and said jets are the best fit for him

Nothing is happening and this site is slowed to a crawl already.
Will it be even faintly usable tomorrow?

 

[KingBogo]

Assuming Nelson doesn't re-sign with NYI, I can understand from the Jets perspective getting Nelson as a rental. Not sure why from a Jets perspective we would won't to sign long term? He will be 34 y/o at the start of next season and you would have to think he would be looking at at least 5 years, maybe more if he can get it.

 

[Mortimer Snerd]

I would be more worried about being bitten by an alligator in Florida, to be honest...

Compared to being bitten by an alligator in Wpg? Well, yeah!

 

[Mooche]

My thoughts exactly. The first Toronto trade might send this site to LTIR.

Yes.

Key word being faintly.

It's because of all the action on this guy

 

[Mortimer Snerd]

I don't think he will fall off a cliff in 1-2 years and hopefully by the time he does we will have lambert/yager ready to take the spot

He's standing on that cliff edge already. He's still OK this year but he might not be even as early as next year.

Perfetti+ would be insane for Nelson as a rental.

Yeah, I don't think is a real thing. Just some random guy posting with a bad take on player values.
