Around the NHL 2024/25

[Optimistic Cynic]

Jiricek has proven he's slow, makes too many mistakes, and belongs in the Evander Kane Club. If he doesn't turn things around with the Wild, he might be looking at the end of his career.

Pretty low haul for a 6OA 2 years out of the draft who's been great in the AHL. A mid to late 1st and picks years away.

Agreed simply an awful trade for CBJ. Not sure what the rush here was, he is under team control. They could simply have waited until another better situation developed with another disgruntled prospect wanting out. There seem to be one of those every 6 months now.

Yup. I really don't want to give up our first two years in a row, so this likely helps in that regard. Or it puts us at the top of the list due to having one.

Philly has both Colorado and Edmonton's 1st. Nashville has Vegas's. Now Columbus has Minnesota's. That's 4 contenders in the West who don't have one. Calgary has New Jersey and Florida's 1st, but their own is in Montreal's hands so they might be players. Vegas can always leverage next year's first on a top end player, after they LTIR Stone (see Hertl trade). Dallas, L.A and Vancouver are the only other contenders in the West who have some chips at this year's draft table.

I agree wholeheartedly agree about keeping the 1st. West is wide open but I don't think Chevy can make a rental trade that will guarantee the Jets get out of the 1st round. Jets are already down 2nd and 4th, on account of Toffoli and Miller, and it's hard to significantly improve the team with a 3rd, 5th, 6th and 7th, especially with a lot of work to do in the offseason, contract wise. If it's a term player that's a different story maybe.

We can trade prospects like Barlow.

Makes me happy to have Chevy at the helm, he waits for his price.

Many of these rebuilds fail due to missing on their top 10 picks.

Chevy wil make a Nino type trade again. Rentals are for suckers.

Can’t think of any rentals that have paid off in recent years.

I'd be really surprised if the Jets gave up on Barlow in his d+2. Especially after keeping him around late in TC. The organization still seems high on him.

It's too bad Chaz has no value anymore.

Chibrikov might be the most valuable prospect, as he seems ready to play on a non contending team.

Really? U mean that’s available. as the most valuable prospects are lambert and salmon.
