Speculation: 2024/25 Trade Rumours, Speculation etc Thread

Yeah I'd like to bring him in as a depth add if his fitness is up to snuff. But the good news is we can do one of those incentive deals for a player his age.

Other good news is it won’t cost us a thing to get him…just have to sign him

I could buy that but I wouldn't do Perfetti for Cozens. I'm not that sold on Cozens. And I wouldn't have done Perfetti for any of the old Cs who were being touted either.

Having failed to get the 2C we need, I was disappointed that we didn't do more to upgrade our D. Schenn may be a small improvement to our PK. I think he will be a liability otherwise and paired with the other liability on the 3rd pair could be a disaster.

Yeah only thing I move Perfetti for is if we have a signed Rantanen coming our way.

At the very least a camp try out should be offered and if he shows he can still play then make him an offer.

Yager seems on track to actually be developed as a centre which would make him the first home-grown C in a long time now.

Could they have had more patience with Cole as he went through the ups and downs of growing into a C in the league?

Maybe, but the Jets seem to have a very clear template for the role, and Perfetti ain’t it.

It sounds like they went hard after Nelson. I’m not sorry they missed, given the final price.

We will never know, I suppose.

The reality is it was likely taking a + to Yager anyways as Ritchie would be held in higher regard prospect wise. That's where things are just flat out looney and I'm sure Chevy hung up the phone.

The Isles were steadfast it seemed from not taking an offer built up with more picks and/or prospects. They wanted the biggest chip possible, and to their credit, they got it.

In the end, I'm very happy looking at Yager and Salo in the Jets' system on March 10th and avoiding that deal.

Agree 100%. The cost for Nelson was just too high in the seller market we saw with the TDL. In other years with more available centers maybe prices are more reasonable, but this season the player available just wasn't worth the cost IMO.

Why do you think Schenn will be liability? Morrissey was very complimentary of him as a player. Schenn also has very decent 3rd pairing underlying numbers, over 1000 NHL games and 2 cups. He is also a 230 lbs bull, and we need one of those that is better at hockey than Stanley.

IF, big IF, Jonathan Toews decides to play again, can he be signed and play in the playoffs this year? Similar to a US college prospect signed after his season is over?

I've heard the reports he's planning a return next season, but he's skating in Arizona and if he's feeling good, could that still be an option this season?

That's a fair point. The wording in the Athletic definitely reads as you state.

"If you have a no-trade list, what's the first team on it?

It also states, "111 players were polled on a range of topics."

So this wasn't a poll strictly of players with NTC's or NTM's. The majority of them would be players under 27 without 7 seasons. The would represent just 12.9% of the players who played this year. As a result the entire poll is garbage because it's not at all reflective of players that even have that clause in their contract.

If 12.9% of the entire league were polled then the likelihood of any of these players actually having a NMC or NTC would be a fraction of that. To get specific 17% of players have contracts which specify teams they refuse to go to. (.13*.17=0.0221). So of the players polled 2.21% would have actually had a NMC in place.

Until there's a poll that includes the entire list of players with NMC's, the math regarding what fraction of players have Winnipeg on their list remains purely speculative, but as the math suggests that this affects the Jets in a very small way.

No he can't play in the playoffs.

Stastny would have stayed but jets offered a two year deal and Vegas offered three years. As it turned out jets traded for him again for that third year so they should have signed him in the first place.

You don't post for a couple of months and then you come back and post all of this negative shit. Are you sure you are a Jets fan and not a Vegas fan?

Would Tavares or Toews be a better fit on the Jets? Toews would be more popular with the fanbase and probably not cost too much, but Tavares is more of a guarantee to put up points.
