Koekkoek's an NHL player above Beaulieu, Sbisa and likely Forbort.Where would you see Koekoek lining up? On the Moose?

He's played 150 games in 6 years and 66 in the last two. He isn't that good and we have enough borderline LHDs.Koekkoek's an NHL player above Beaulieu, Sbisa and likely Forbort.
I'm not an insider by any means but I did hear that the Jets did "kick tires" on Koekkoek but ultimately decided not to go that route. I think that's when they pivoted to Forbort.
I don't think it matters if you separate them, the risk of course is that some posts will be missed after 7 or 8 posts by the same person, but if they're on topic and replies it doesn't matter.
Of course, its preferred to use the multi-quote option
Forbert does bring more snarl and has a longer track record, both things I see the org valuing. If Forbert can put that injury behind him he could be a good third pairing physical defensive dmen for us next season.
I still have hopes that the Jets sign either Koekoek or Vatanen to a value deal.

I've literally never seen "Forbort" and "snarl" in the same sentence unless it was separated by the word "lacks". Forbort a good positional defenseman but he does not play with much edge at all.
Interesting, I thought playing with grit was one of his calling cards. As someone who has seen him play a decent amount where do you see him slotting in on the roster?
Probably no better than Poolman, who we still have signed this year. And Rutta will likely cost a mil+. Why? Use Poolman on 3rd pairingJan Rutta is also still available. Is he any good?

I wonder if the Jets dont just wait and see how things are working. So many things to consider - when the league will actually play, Laine situation, protection list for the expansion draft...
I actually think they are done all their significant moves for this offseason. Might add 1-2 more depth/Moose additions and that’s it. I’m not saying a top 4 LHD is impossible but I think it’s unlikely unless he comes very cheap. I’m very happy with this offseason as it stands now.
Hard to say on Rutta. He has had a couple decent seasonal time periods of being a positive, viableI'm fine with Poolman on 3rd pair. Just don't know Rutta and wondering if there is any point getting him. There is not if he isn't better than Poolman.
The only thing I could see happening is a Roslovic trade but given that he's still here I think the chances of him moving prior to some point within the season is fairly low.
Jack is the one guy I was thinking might be traded but then again for what? Top 4 LHD rental due to expansion (seems like a waste)? For another forward maybe, aka hockey trade maybe? Or is Chevy giving Jack time to see what other deals are happening so he lowers his ask? Not sure but Chevy is in no hurry.
Might be that Chevy is trying to sign Roslo for as cheap as possible, workable to a 2 year minimum contract in order to make him available to Seattle ExDrft? But still have him on the roster, affordable for this upcoming season? The market for trading for Roslo is pretty quiet or I am sure we would hear more about it.The only thing I could see happening is a Roslovic trade but given that he's still here I think the chances of him moving prior to some point within the season is fairly low.
I'm guessing in that weegar/Schmidt shitishow. That's right about when all news about him wanting out came out.I have heard they tried hard to move Roslovic in a package for a D man. Almost happened and didn't. I hear they are still looking to move him maybe for draft pick or picks.
