Speculation: 2024/25 Trade Rumours, Speculation etc Thread

Ballsy move giving up Ritchie if Nelson walks.

What does Chevy do now?

Ballsy move giving up Ritchie even if Nelson extends.

 

[PhilJets]

Is Nelson that much greater than our 2C currently?

anyways!!! CHATGPT HAS SPOKEN. We should just mail it in and don’t get our hopes up!!!

 

[Mooche]

This arms race all around us sucks, but if we zoom out for a second...

They weren't a serious player for Rantanen, and it was likely going to be a 1st, Yager, + to have the Jets in the running for Nelson.

Realistically, that's just bad business, IMO.

Let's see what tomorrow holds -- here's hoping Chevy can pull a rabbit out of his hat, at the very least put together some adds to bolster this squad.

 

[jetsforever]

Awesome that all the other Central teams are beefing up

 

[JetsFan815]

Callum Ritchie in a Nelson trade is absolutely insane. What a haul for the Isles.

Brock to Colorado.

Rantanen to Dallas?

The Central just got gross again overnight...

Maybe Cozens will end up in Utah too by tomorrow, Boeser to Minnesota and the Jets can acquire Pius Suter.

It's like free agency days hope for the best, settle for the rest.

Cozens is a better fit for the Jets than Nelson, from what I’m reading. He’s a lot younger, very fast and gritty, and will give that 2nd line some playoff toughness. He’d fit in with Ehlers and Perfetti really well.

Chevy should go after this guy.

 

[Mortimer Snerd]

Watching Avs and Stars, does Chevy try harder for what's left?

He is not prone to panic, but he might raise his bids for a player or two.

 

[HellebuyckOurSaviour]

What about a deal with NJ?

To Wpg - Mercer, Bratt, Nemec, 2nd Rd pick

To NJ - Ehlers, Perfetti, Heinola, Lambert, 3rd Rd pick

 

[Daximus]

Wonder if Chevy pulls another out of the blue Blues trade and lands Schenn. Other than that Cozens isn't a bad fit if the price is right.

Buffalo wants players not futures, so what do you want to subrtact from the roster that make sense for Buffalo? Only way we give them future is if it is a 3 way deal in a sort of way..

I guess the question is what's left that can help the team? Every talking head said Nelson was the best fit for the Jets. If ROR wants to stay in Nashville or go somewhere else, if Buffalo doesn't fit as a trade partner for the Jets, or wants to deal at the draft, who's on the table that moves the needle?

Maybe there's a surprise tomorrow, or maybe Chevy watches teams that they are contending with year in year out drop valuable assets and sends his into the playoffs as underdogs. But playing in sync. And with more assets/prospects than them next year.

Me I'd try to target Buffalo for Byram or Mc Leod now.

Devils would not trade Bratt alone for that package. Bratt and Hughes are the only 2 in Devils that really produce..

 

[King Woodballs]

Sigh
Big f***ing sigh

Big f***ing sigh

Yeah it's not great news at all, Nelson is seriously going to bolster that Avs top 6, they have Mack, Necas, Nuke and now Nelson, that's a filthy top 6 and have already seen how they can damage us. Yikes.

As of Rantanen, meh, not that concerned, don't think much of him without Mack, he has proven that with Carolina so far, doubt he fares much better with the likes of Hintz and Robertson for example, still not ideal though for us.

You have a good point there.

I was thinking of Cozens and Ferraro, for example. Buffalo is supposed to be a seller but there has been a lot more talk than action there. There must be others around the league. GMs just waiting for the right offer. So maybe Chevy bumps up his offers in an attempt to keep up. I just hope he doesn't go after a poor fit or overpay in the attempt.

I think Mc Leod would be my number one target now, because he was a beauty on the PK for the Oilers last year. I think he'd be a good fit with KC on the 2nd PK. Maybe lacked the puck skills to play with the top guns last playoff but he's had a quiet good year. Versatile player.

1st + kind of trade but the plus is a lot less than Cozens I would guess.

Chevy's been at this job for a long time, looks like he went to the table with chips in and now is the last to play his cards.

Question:

Did adding
2 top 6 forwards to bolster the Jets lineup last year help?

Or it screwed up the chemistry?

Felt fine in the regular season from what I recall

Playoffs were another story

 

[Daximus]

With Dallas and Colorado loading up on the big fish it's looking like maybe adding some depth is the right move. Unless Chevy can swing a Schenn trade I think its likely we see a depth forward and defencemen added to the mix and shoot our shot with what we got. Glad we didn't overpay for Nelson.

 

[MardyBum]

Hopefully not a panic overpay for Laughton. Will be interesting to see what they can add.

I'd be up for McCann and trying to fit him as the 2C. Worst comes to worst you still have a top 6 winger upgrade if Ehlers walks. So many bubble teams in the east, it's hard to know who's selling and who's desperate to make the playoffs and save their job lol.

 

[Hunter368]

Well we lost out on Brock, let’s see what Chevy can do with plan B today and savage the TDL

Calling both top six guys on a playoff team is a bit of a stretch, I was very vocal with both guys being bad targets well before we got both bc their so slow skaters and soft as butter and neither could drive play. Spilt milk now, not worth debating but I hated both trades especially Monahan deal

 

[Hunter368]

I sure hope Chevy didn’t have all his eggs in one basket bc if he has to start from scratch today we’re getting very little or it might be a bad panic move. 2pm cutoff for TDL today
