If the jets were qualified for the playoffs, would we pay a 3rd for Eakins or would it be a 4th as there were no playoff games actually played?
Good question.

Best pairing in the league ?? You cant be serious. Top 15 maybe

This is the problem. With teams not having equal number of games played, it makes going straight into a playoffs scenario difficult.The Jets didn't qualify.
The only way they can do it is ppg and they didn't get in...a good year to miss the playoffs.
A lot of teams gave up 1st round picks and more and they won't play another game this season.
Considering we're talking .1%, there should be a one game play inThe Jets didn't qualify.

I can't see the NHL reversing conditions for rental trades.Yeah the league still has to figure out what happens to teams that gave up first rounders for rentals. Or teams that gave up players for conditional picks based on playoffs.
Absolutely nothing. The league won’t do a thing.Yeah the league still has to figure out what happens to teams that gave up first rounders for rentals. Or teams that gave up players for conditional picks based on playoffs.

I think, if they don’t cancel this season completely, they should play out enough games to get each team to 72... roughly 2-5 games per team. Then play out the playoffs as usual except have each round a best of 5 instead of 7.
Then next season, cancel a few things like the all star break, and maybe a classic or 2, and go with an extended season to get the 82 games in plus playoffs.... likely ending in June... maybe early July.

I don't see any issue there. They made deals that haven't worked out for them. So what?
So do we have to give back Demelo and get our 4th back? Eakins back to Vegas for our 3rd?Yeah but to no fault of their own. Anyone that traded a non-UFA player for a conditional pick based on playoffs is getting nothing. Bettman has already stated the league is working on something. Easy to say when you gave up nothing as a fan base or traded no one of value. Far different scenario for fans of teams that did and got a few games out of their guy or won't see the conditional pick that was basically guaranteed from playoffs teams.
DeMelo was for a 3rd in 2020 and Eakin was for a 4th in 2021 (upgrade to 3rd if Eakin re-signs with Jets or they make the playoffs).So do we have to give back Demelo and get our 4th back? Eakins back to Vegas for our 3rd?
Then sign them as free agents!!!!!!!!!!So do we have to give back Demelo and get our 4th back? Eakins back to Vegas for our 3rd?

Works for me...
I’m fine with o compensation but if everyone is I’m fine with getting more picks. Also how is that fair to team who traded guys?I would rather have had a few rounds of playoffs. The team was really starting to click and Helly was being Helly. We were on a roll and really gaining some momentum. Who knows what could have happened
If we can resign Demelo I call it a wash. Eakins ain’t resigning here. That’s a tougher one but life sucks sometimes. If we lose the pick for nothing then shit happens.
There didn’t seem to be as many true “rentals” at the TDL this year. A lot were still under contract (Skjei, Case for example).
A simple fix would be to add picks to each round to compensate to teams that gave up picks for pure rentals.

No, we give up a 4th if Eakin doesn't re-sign, and a 3rd if he does.So do we get our picks back if Eakins doesn’t sign?
No, we give up a 4th if Eakin doesn't re-sign, and a 3rd if he does.
I highly doubt any trade deadline trades will be altered in any meaningful way.
But doesn’t that mean 4th rd is worse less as whoever would have picked there now doesn’t get their guy but picks from a pool with at least 1 guy less.For example, Ottawa got our third this year and say falls at 3 rd round, 12th pick. They get that one, we get our third back and pick immediately afterward. So 32 picks that round. Ottawa is happy and Winnipeg is happy. It would also work with all other true UFA rentals. Your essentially adding more draft picks to the draft. Might actually be the fairest the more I think of it
