Once again Chevy waited too long to trade him when the return would have been higher, seriously Chevy knew he wasn't signing here and he dithered as usual! If the Jets fail to make the playoffs that inaction looks even dumber!
Errr, I think the expectation was that this was going to be a contending year with Copp as a self-rental.
Not sure why we'd defer it. It's the Blues 2nd rounder this year or the Rangers' 2nd rounder next year. Unless the Blues go to the Stanley Cup, you might take next year's, but otherwise you'd expect those picks to be in the same range, so it's much better to take it now that wait. prospect in hand is better than one in the bush.
Heinola isn’t a NHL player yet. Samberg had/has very little pro track record. You can try and go with them but that just seems like a great way to have Beaulieu play 75 games.
you can have him all day. we'd be better next year if we'd have played Heinola and Samberg. Probably would've been better this year too.
Was he? You said there were better deals previously. What were the deals that were better?
copp's been great in NYR. i doubt he will sign here. why would he? he's probably going to get more money elsewhere with a more significant role, & if he wants to chase a cup for instance, that likely is not here next season. i think perfetti likely is a top-6er, so no spot for him.
