I mean the guy who just turned the AHL into a playground. Bean right now is the best NHL ready D prospect in hockey. Do some research buddy

You pretty much said you’ve never seen heinola play like you have to clue what ur talking about rn.. bias fan that’s all you are smh ur on rocks if u think jets pay all that too

You're on something I want if you think the Jets don't give all that too. Lmao, your bias is showing through, you should try to be more neutral when discussion prospects and your favourite team xD

I prefer Ehlers over Connor and Laine because of his defensive metrics. Also, I will say that Pionk was very good this season, both in terms of point production and Corsi possession stats at even-strength. The question with him is whether that season is a fluke or a symbol of huge progression in his game. This deal is basically a bet on the latter on the Canes' side, while it's a sell-high bet for the Jets.

His PDO was through the roof, meaning he had the luckiest season of his career. His xGA and xGF were both horrible, and it's just not worth going after him in place of Dougie (Pionk that is)

Ehlers is great all around, but his primary ability is what we already have. We need a sniper, not someone else to kill penalties. It's why I think Connor is the better target.

You have no clue what ur talking about and the jets aren’t even my fav team.. so that funny.. the jets are not giving their best winger top 4 dman their best prospect and a 1st!! Wake up lmao

Oh sorry, you're 2nd favourite team! Winnipeg would give up a good winger, bottom pair D man, a meh prospect and a 1st for a future Norris winner! Wake up dude, you're living in fandom! You clearly have no clue what you're on about.

There was a meaningful progression in Pionk's game, though, particularly in terms of possession stats. His great year wasn't ALL luck. I do see where you're coming from, though, as far as PDO is concerned. He certainly is a strong candidate for regression, although perhaps not by as much as anticipated if his puck possession skills truly have improved by that much.

The fact that that’s how ur evaluating players you haven’t watched shows how much you know about the jets and hockey.. in the fact aren’t you the one that said Hamilton would win the vezina lmao ya take a hike.

LMAO, I'm the one misevaluating players? Go watch some hockey kid.

His regression is going to be bad... He's not a top 4 D man, he's just gone from replacement level to bottom pair.

Your all over the map you have no clue what ur talking about rn all you’ve done is googled connors stats Idek if you’ve watched a jets game the package is offering the world for Hamilton but you turn around and want the lesser player and 3rd!!!! Smh

Honestly, the two biggest assets in this deal are Hamilton and Ehlers. The main defensive piece in this deal that Winnipeg is giving up is Heinola, NOT Pionk. The Bean for a 1st swap is the difference between a Heinola-level prospect (no joke of a player) and a Caufield/Zegras-caliber guy. As shown by my roster above, Pionk is basically treated as a bottom-pairing guy with PP skills and the potential for more. The way that I built this deal was essentially like this:

Hamilton (extended) and a 7th for Ehlers and Heinola
Fleury and Dzingel (50% Retained) for Pionk
Bean for a 2022 1st (which facilitates the Gostisbehere deal and balances the lack of Caufield or Zegras)

I want a goal scorer and a 3rd piece. Can you not read the other comments or are you just not very good at grasping the comment? I've suggested something like Roslovic, Connor 1st and a little more for Dougie, but you wouldn't know that!

Why would you not then make them individual deals?

The Canes made three separate deals with the Rangers because each of those deals were based on context-dependent valuations, including a then-prospect that only wanted to play for the Rangers and no one else (Adam Fox), and a deal centered around Expansion Draft maneuvering (Gauthier for Keane). This deal isn't context-dependent at all. It's about building two win-now packages for different needs and different salary structures.

Lmao you didn’t say that and your still smokin rocks for a return like that ur delusional man keep dreaming have a good one.

You keep being delusional, and we can talk later when you sober up xD
