That's why I wonder whether the Jets might consider a bigger trade either at the TDL or in the off-season to try to come up with a longer-term solution for the 2C. Mittelstadt seems like the best option out there, but he's going to be expensive. Maybe something like Vilardi and Iaffalo and a good prospect (sort of like the PLD deal). In that case, perhaps Kupari and Lambert are candidates for RW slots, at least in their early NHL careers.
If I were Chevy, I'd really try hard to make a deal for Mittelstadt. If the deal was right, I think Buffalo would trade him, if the trade facilitated their needs. I think Buffalo would want a defenseman, and a Goalie, and one of our top prospects. Mittelstadt is a "perfect"fit for the Jets.

I think they may accept Brossoit, Lambert and Stanley to get the deal done, and I'd make that deal if I was Chevy. Mittelstadt is "proven" and the others are not, except for Brossoit.

so a soon to be ufa goalie, a prospect, and a 7/8 D. Why do you think they would accept that?

FWIW, I'd trade Connor for Tage Thompson straight up without much of a hiccup. Both are very good scorers, and that's their main contribution. Neither are good defensively. Thompson is a year younger, and on a better long-term deal. Also, he shoots right, and the Jets could use another RS forward.
You can do a lot more damage as a center with poor defense than you can as a winger with poor defense.

I really don't know what they'd accept, but you do make a good point about an UFA goalie. Maybe presigned to make the deal work ? OR, there may be another player they like. I do know they need a Goalie, and that would be of strong interest to them -- at the right price.

I don't think we are a good fit with Buffalo. For Mitts it would need to be a goalie a bit younger that fits with their core and probably a young now player that has the potential to develop into the same neighborhood value wise. Eventually Boston will need to spring loose one of their 2 goalies, which is probably a better fit.

I'm pretty sure Mitts centered the 3rd line for a fair amount of the season.
I'm not saying he isn't a 2C because I think he is and he does well for the Sabres when he plays that postion but I'm pretty sure he played a fair chunk of the season as a 3C.
I'm not giving up Volare in the deal, though.

Buffalo needs (a housecleaning) RHDs and some veteran players that can play in their bottom six. Someone like Nino or Names.
Oh ya, they need a goalie big time.

Some really horrible moves by that GM.
Mitts being signed to within a year of UFA is one of them. Same thing with Dahlin.
Not getting a starting goalie in the off season and hoping a rookie was going to become an immediate starter.
To name a few.

I think they'd trade him for a good vet winger if he was good enough. Someone like KC but Buffalo would have to add not the Jets.
Something like KC and a 2nd for Mitts (extended) and Peterka.

I think Tanev might be the focus for the Jets. He’s familiar with True North from his time with the Moose and would seem to be a good fit.

Jets could offer Stanley and a 2025 2nd round pick. If needed they can add a B prospect.

Jets could then run with:

Morrissey-Tanev
Dillon-DeMelo
Samberg-Pionk
Schmidt

Tanev will bring back a 1st minimum.

Step 1: draft a trade where your team gives up little value and gets a stud in return

Step 2: insert the stud into your lineup and take a victory lap

A Mercedes might be a focus for me this summer. They're familiar with me from that one time I drove one on holiday.

I could offer $10k and help the salesman move next summer. If needed I can add an edible arrangement.

You are getting heat for this proposal but imo this isn't that far off if you replace the 2025 2nd with the Habs 2024 2nd. 2024 2nd is much closer to a late 1st and if the Jets add a prospect like Rashevski, it could work for the Flames. Their asking price thus far has been a 2nd + another. Likely some team like the Leafs gives them a 1st though.

late 2nd and a 7D for a presumably top pair RHD.

The reported ask was a 2nd and a prospect. With Calgary now holding out for a 1st. So, throw in a decent prospect like Rachevsky to my original offer.

I don’t think he fetches much more. But if a team offers a 1st, then it may be too rich for the Jets after moving their 1st for Monahan.

Who would be our backup goalie in that scenario?

Well, I thought of that as well, but Helle plays 65 - 70 % of the games, so I guess they'd have to find a decent backup. Vegas seems to have no problem finding them, and they all do very well. To get a guy like Mittelstadt, it would be worth it. You have to give up something very good, and that fills a hole they need, for them to play ball. There's no easy answer.

Nashville and Askarov + makes sense I would think, if Nashville decides on holding onto Saros.

The Flyers look like the key player in the TDL machinations. They are firmly in the playoff mix, now. If they decide not to be sellers, it might take 2 or 3 D out of the market. I don't think Chevy is going to go crazy to acquire a D. If prices for a D like Tanev are very high, he'll aim lower. I think the Jets like their D, but they lack depth. Might be more like a DeMelo type of acquisition, when all is said and done.

IDK about that. I think they are a much different team with a goalie. It is not just the goalie himself, but teams play better in front of a goalie they have faith in.

They might be willing to consider other things but a goalie is what they need and I'm sure they know that.
Luukkonen and Levi are both outperforming their GSAx numbers at 5v5. If you're a Sabre, you'd better have faith in that, given that they're getting no extra help from anyone on the team.

I have no idea what that means.

But I just looked at Luukonen's save% for the first time in a while. It is way up from the last time I looked. He has been doing very well since then. If he can keep that up their need for a goalie is not nearly as great as I had thought it was.

Levi needs 1-2 years of development and he will probably be OK.
