TSN: Trade Deadline: what do we do!

[KingBogo]

keep the pick if you think it has too much potential. trade stanley, heinola, chisholm, chibrikov, and lambert for someone with term.

Maybe because the market for Stanley is soft, they see Heinola and Lambert as part of the future and Chisholm and Vhibirkov are worth little if anything to other GMs.

 

[SCP Guy]

Season ticket holders will drop again next year. How many more will be requesting trades

No move at this deadline would change that unless we somehow traded for the Blue jackets 1st round pick

 

[Mortimer Snerd]

What if Arizona didn't move off a 1st round pick ask?

I'd do a 1st for Schmaltz.

 

[Gil Fisher]

If we end up in a bit of a rebuild on the other side of Scheif, Helle, PLD, Wheeler, Ehlers, Dillon, deMelo, Schimdt, Nino and Pionk getting moved or leaving over the next two seasons. Keeping those younger guys to help bolster a future core could be paramount.

yes. kind of feels like they gave up on this season this week.

 

[MardyBum]

These are the types of days that convince Helle you're serious about contending and will get him to re-sign

 

[None]

It’s deflating to not make more noise and add someone to who might provide some optimism. But I think the writing is on the wall for this team and Chevy has read it. Can’t go all in with picks because it’s unlikely to matter and the future is far too uncertain.
I doubt Chevy is around to deal with it anyway, if this team keeps free falling and misses the playoffs.

I can appreciate not having a GM that would burn it all down by trading draft capital to save his own ass.

It is looking like a major rebuild if Scheif, Helle and PLD all choose not to extend.

Honestly as long as Lowry is inked in pen as the 3C adding bottom 6 scoring isn't going to matter with how much he kills offense. Chevy clearly doubled down on Lowry and went out and got players with D and forechecking/grit to compliment his game.

Scoring doesn't compliment his game and that has been proven time and time again the last few years so why pay for it if it isn't going to be effective?

 

[gojetsgo]

not a single 1st rounder moved today right?

not sure what folks were expecting..... when healthy namestnikov helps the bottom-6. if perfetti comes back we have nino now so that'll push a 2nd line caliber player down.

the D group this TDL was Chychrun, Ekholm and whole lotta meh/whore cares. they were never going to move Pionk or Schmidt.

I set my expectations pretty low and they weren't even met, we needed some scoring for the bottom six, yes namestinikov is better then what we had but he still doesn't bring enough offense

 

[bustamente]

This offseason could be painful for us lots of pieces up in the air. Dubois might still want out, Scheif and Helle might chase greener pastures and bigger paydays elsewhere. Make for some big decisions from July 1st to the Deadline .

I've been saying that for the last few days, that my impression that Chevy was holding onto his 1sts for dear life, not knowing what the contract situation will be with 3 of his star players.

I've been assuming he had a pretty good idea where all 3 stood. But his behaviour suggests a lot of uncertainty.

This off season is going to be must watch tv if the Jets miss the playoffs, I've said before miss the playoffs and it's time for a rebuild. That rebuild should be done by another GM with a fresh set of eyes that will come here and evaluate the roster and make some tough decisions.

Jets haven't played a healthy stretch of games this year, so from the assessment point you still don't even know what you have as a team. Chevy has probably moved enough to keep Appleton out of the top 6 for the rest of the year, and that might pay dividends in Lowry's game.

Minnesota being aggressive surprised me, but I think they were in a safe spot to do so. More draft picks, more prospects, less looming UFAs.

I don't mind the moves. Or the inaction.

Give the guys here a chance to prove themselves. If Dubois and Ehlers get back to playing dominant hockey it changes the look of this team. I don't think any extra outside moves beyond adding Niedrrater was going to change that.

Bottom 6 is still based on their defensive impact, PKing roles

Defense is still uncertain. I like that Dylan Samberg has the chance to maybe get his first playoff experience. Listening to Ken Holland talk about his younger inexperienced defense, at some point you have to let these guys prove themselves in the ultimate challenge.

If one of the consequences of the inaction is having the roster and Cap space to bring Heinola into the team for the rest of the year, I think that could be a net positive.

Jets Cap space is weaponized by having depth down the stretch.

Still have a great goalie at the end, and that could be a difference.

I guess what remains to be seen is how hard this team will battle for one another in the most challenging part of the season.

 

[Daximus]

yes. kind of feels like they gave up on this season this week.

I think so to. Make some minor moves for Vlad for this year and Nino who could potentially be flipped next year for futures and that way it makes it look like we added something but ultimately we aren't gonna change much.

If we do end up moving PLD, Scheif, Helle, Nino, Wheeler, Dillon and deMelo next deadline and Ehlers, Schmidt and Pionk the deadline after. We could probably get some hefty pieces back in order to help a rebuild along while still retaining our young talent like Perfetti, Gust, Barron, Lambert, Lucius, McGroarty. It's looking more and more like that group is the future.

 

[Gil Fisher]

Maybe because the market for Stanley is soft, they see Heinola and Lambert as part of the future and Chisholm and Vhibirkov are worth little if anything to other GMs.

yes. we're left to speculate. as we are time and again.

i think chevy is to timid. like stand pat gillick prior to the alomar trade.

Yeah, agreed. I’m not criticizing Chevy just to be clear.

 

[Thechozen1]

Oh to be a fly on the wall. That is certainly true, which is why I try to keep my disappointment to a reasonable level because we just don't know.

Could be wrong, but I really think they could have gotten him without including a 1st. They got a mid round 1st and 2 2nds for Chychrun, and there was much more desire for him around the league.

Schmaltz has an absolutely terrible contract for the Yotes, and I would bet that their owner wants no part of it after this year. Stanley, another pick like a 2nd or 3rd, and another prospect like a Torgersson I think the Yotes think about because it's a TON of money for them to get out from.

Obviously it's just fans, but they were hoping for a 1st and 2nd, and some even less. Stanly IMO still has late 1st value.

If there was interest in Schmaltz by Chevy it is probably revisited on the draft floor when Chevy knows where that pick is and potentially who is available.

As of right now there is a HUGE question mark as to where that Jets pick will be. There’s still potential that it’s part of the draft lottery if the Jets don’t correct their play real quick.

 

[GeorgeJETson]

So... what's the over/under at even making the playoffs?

 

[Guffman]

I am more excited about our offseason and next TDL. This core is not hungry and underachieves (except Helle).

Our window is now gone.

 

[KingBogo]

I've been assuming he had a pretty good idea where all 3 stood. But his behaviour suggests a lot of uncertainty.

My guess, is he really only knows PLD's plans, and likely he is out the door. Scheifele and Helly may very well not want to cross this bridge yet.

 

[Gil Fisher]

So... what's the over/under at even making the playoffs?

honestly, i don't even know if I care. don't want to spend $10k on playoff tickets if chevy doesn't believe it's worth the effort.

*i believe i am distraught

 

[Thechozen1]

well maybe if he didn't want his team to slide he should have been proactive and actually get some help to fix our biggest weaknesses

I agree, but sellers were also holding out somewhat trying to squeeze more out of buyers.

 

[Been around]

No

But sure as f*** exposes those who think that way

Meaning a loser mentality.
Why the hell not try to think positively for once....you'll find yourself smiling alot more.
When it comes to hockey or anything you enjoy watching...think positively...its entertainment, not life or death ffs

 

[gojetsgo]

bjugstad went for a 3rd at 50% we could have beaten that..

Can you imagine the change in tune around here if we win the draft lottery even though you can now only move up 10 spots.

 

[surixon]

I mean Chevy added two top 9 forwards to a team low on forward depth. What did people actually want him to do remake the whole team?
