he has a 10 team no trade clause, new york tried to trade goodrow to the sharks and he wouldn't waive and they claimed him off waivers

There is still an Ehlers return.
I don't think McG returns an established RD.
I think draft expectations were too high because people wanted a first.
Trades for near ready prospects or established players was always more likely to fit Chevy's prices.
Thanks for everything, Nate and the best of luck
The org likes set roles. Schmidt played the role Ville would likely play. The bottom pair second unit pp puck moving role is now open.
Unfortunately it looks like Stab is likely to play the Snerg role and Snerg will play the Dillon role.

Would you rather give up a 2nd or 3rd and retain almost $3m this year or buy him out? He's certainly a cap dump at this point.

Hopefully Arniel shakes up those set roles when necessary, but I'm doubtful.
I disagree I’m sure at 3 or 2 mil he is a valuable asset just not at 5.9 mil. But, obviously league disagrees. Also, I’m fine with moving 3rds as they rarely mount to anything.

Not saying this will happen but I am curious, can the Jets sign him in free agency or is there some rule against it?
Yes I think so too (or potentially Dillon). My main concern is this: we had a good team last year, but I think our early playoff exit (and particularly how we were outplayed by Colorado) demonstrated that some meaningful changes are needed to take the next step forward - not a roster overhaul, but still something meaningful. So far I have a feeling that we will soon be very close to trying to simply run it back with an almost-the-same roster as last year with more minor tweaks. Time will tell.
Maybe the bigger addition will come in the Rutger trade that we are all eagerly waiting to see play out (not so much wanting to see Rutger traded, but since it’s inevitable that he’s leaving now I think many of us have come to terms with it and it is interesting to think of what may come back our way, as I think that’s the asset that may ultimately help us take it to the next level - hopefully a big upgrade on right D).

This will clear up cap space.
Not a bad player for us. But not worth 6 M /year

He can’t play with the Jets for the entire 2024-25 season. He could re-sign with them the following season though.

Is Dillon actually gone though...? Still one day for an announcement...
Schmidt will be a solid min wage 3rd pairing for a team... maybe he replaces Trouba in New York
I'd trade Ehlers for Durzi+ if possible - that bumps Pionk down but not sure Utah goes for it - their d-core is fkn solid now

Need another Dillon type guy back there. Projected D lineup not physical enough
