Mode - plafond salarial: Basique

Just a stretch really. Jets don’t usually dip into free agency this much but they have holes to fill and this will get it done.
1. Cody Eakin has a bit of a resurgence after he arrived at the trade deadline so he likely extends to prove himself and .. he’s from Winnipeg.
2. Travis Hamonic is also from Manitoba. He wanted to be closer to his family while with the Isles.
3. Joel Edmundson is from there too. 2019 Stanley Cup Champion.
4. Reimer fills a spot and does not cost much as his salary is low and his signing bonus was already paid. It buys time for younger G’s to develop. And gives Hellebuyck a break. It also clears cap space for the Canes to move a bigger move for a stud UFA G.
5. Pitlick is a solid 4th liner with scoring touch. Plus player.
6. Lewis is a Stanley Cup Champion X 2. Great leadership addition.
7. Rasmus Ristolainen!! Not sure on the reaction from Jets’ Nation. He should produce when paired with a solid shutdown D like JE. It’s a high risk/ high reward move.
I thought about making a move for Domi but I figured they’d ask for a King’s Ransom. Something like Heinola and a higher pick.
Jets still look good cap wise beyond next season so extending Laine will be easy.
I expect Chevy will draft either Anton Lundell or Seth Jarvis at #10. Long term option for 2C.
