Agreed. This core isn't good enough. Rearranging the depth isn't going to do anything. Also keeping the status quo on aging out players isn't going to either.

Yeah we need to move out some guys but I think they feel losing any of the core will just upset the fans who love those players.
You can't run a successful organization scared.
Nope but it seems like, from the outside, that is where we are right now.

Afraid to make a mistake is mistake #1.
Afraid to alienate anyone is a way to alienate everyone.
Afraid is no way to improve.
I have a teeny tiny little bit of optimism that Chevy does something big this summer but i feel like it's going to be sign Monahan, sign some depth vets in FA, wait for the last possible second on McG and Ehlers to try and sign them and then run it all back.

friedman said there was a couple of times jets thought they were close on mcgroarty with mtl and the wild

I'm hoping we don't sign Monahan. Roster needs a shakeup and not signing a vet who will just get slower.
But I fear that's what they'll do, and just try to keep the same roster as last year. Definition of insanity.

I wonder if Chevy is trying the same thing Edmonton is with Campbell before the buyouts. See if anyone is willing to take them on and trying every other avenue.
Still time for a Schmidt buyout.

chris johnston said mtl was having conversations about #5 and mentioned they were tied to mcgroarty not necessarily for #5 but when demidov got there those talks went away and wild wanted buium
That makes sense. We were only getting those picks if the draft went a certain way. Really hope we can get something out of CBJ.

I'm guessing the deals were also dependant on someone Chevy was high on being available too
At the end of the day, it's no loss to us. Next spring Rutger will be one season closer to NHL ready and if it's not with the Jets, his value won't have diminished. If anything, it could go up
As I was trying to explain to Habs fans on the main boards.. as long as Rutger doesn't have his heart set on FA and is willing to sign with whatever team aquire his rights, then anyone who really wants him will have to pay Chevy's price
Yeah, it is almost always dependent on what is still on the board at the time. It's also the reason Necas didn't go either. Teams interested that had the picks liked the prospects better.
David Jiricek, you are a Winnipeg Jet.
You’re a brave (or stupid, or patient) man trying to engage with main boards Habs fans. Don’t you remember the Scheifele suspendable clean hit and the PLD sagas?

Looks like thats about the value Chevy wants around that 12-13th pick type of value
I’m glad it didn’t work out. I’d rather a player who’s closer to the NHL than an 18 yr old.
Denton Mateychuk from Columbus. He was drafted two ahead of Rutger and has also been developing really well.
Mathew Savoie is another one who might be available due to Buffalo being weak at LW amd strong at C and RW.
