YeahInteresting going back to the first several pages of this thread and comparing it to now
He’s got the better attitude it seems out of our 2022 first round picks and seems to be reaching the potential initially envisioned
I think Lambert could have a hybrid role, playing RW with Lowry and Nino for long stretches and playing C on the 2/3 line. Reality is that the Lowry line is de facto 2nd line in ice time. Lambert would bring a lot of the attributes of Appleton but faster and with more offensive punch.
Connor-Scheifele-Ehlers
Nino-Lowry-Lambert/Vilardi
Perfetti-Namestnikov-Vilardi/Lambert
Iafallo-Barron-Kupari
Gus
(Yes, Barron at C, maybe)
If Lambert makes the leap...I highly doubt they dump Appleton. Although if he was with Barron and Iafallo, that would make a great 4th line.
Lambert as a winger might hurt his development, like with Roslovic.If Lambert makes the leap...
Connor-Scheifele-Ehlers
Perfetti-Namestnikov-Vilardi
Nino-Lowry-Lambert
Barron-Kupari-Appleton
Gus
If the Jets keep Iafallo, then maybe a fourth line of:
Iafallo-Barron-Appleton
They had Barron play a bit of C last season.

Three balanced lines. I wish to god a Jets coach would try thisThere’s lots of good options. I don’t hate the idea of this:
Connor-Scheifele-Nino
Perfetti-Lowry-Ehlers
Namestnikov-Lambert-Vilardi
If it was to happen, they would probably give it only 4 shifts.Three balanced lines. I wish to god a Jets coach would try this
Faster than orleskys husband, but softer than Dan Robersons gut.They should give him every opportunity to win the 2C job in TC this fall.
KC Lambert Ehlers would be an interesting line. Might need some more size though.
0 we'd have to sweeten with pick.What is Iaffalo worth on the trade market?
Mangiapane got a 2nd, I think we could maybe get a 3rd or 4th for AIWhat is Iaffalo worth on the trade market?
He may have more value to the team than in a trade. He's a real Swiss army knife that can slot in anywhere in the line up (although you don't want him in the top six for very long)What is Iaffalo worth on the trade market?
Yeah I think he's one of those unsung guys.He may have more value to the team than in a trade. He's a real Swiss army knife that can slot in anywhere in the line up (although you don't want him in the top six for very long)
He's like a grinder version of Names. Those guys can be super useful
That said, if Chevy needs to clear some salary, he'd be the guy to deal. Somebody would give up something for him
It depends on the trade timing. I think he would hold higher value at the trade deadline (especially with a bit of salary retention) than he would now. If the Jets trade him now it would most likely be to a rebuilding team with young players to clear some cap space for the Jets, but I wouldn't expect much return (maybe a 4th or 5th). If he has a strong season then he might return a 3rd at the TDL from a contender, especially if the Jets retain. But at that point, the Jets might want to retain him for their own playoff run.What is Iaffalo worth on the trade market?

Maybe. Gus and Kupari are the same age, and neither have shown much at the NHL level. I included Kupari mainly because of his right-shot and more speed, which I think the Jets' system demands. However, I like Gus fine and his speed has improved.Kupari out, Gus in.
Kup has shown nothing except skating. Should be waived.
A bit strange putting Lowry with Perf and Ehlers, but interesting. Thinking outside the box.

He's like a Vesalainen clone.Gus has shown he can be a decent 4th liner.
Kupari looks good but accomplishes nothing. Maybe he improves but is that likely at 24 YO?
Vesalainen can handle a puck and is a decent passer. Not assertive and his style is not for the NHL. Kupari is far behind skill wiseHe's like a Vesalainen clone.
Sucks, I had high hopes for him as maybe the surprise of the trade
