Mode - plafond salarial: Basique

I’m not optimistic the Jets will land Hamilton, and I’m worried that the trade carousel doesn’t have Winnipeg as a stop (though for the prices paid for Jones and Risto... I’m glad about that!)

Hoping that Pionk goes 8 for a lower AAV, and Copp re-ups for 4 years through his prime as a middle six forward. I would love Copp to be in the low 4s, but with what Bennet just got... I’m think 5 per isn’t out of the realm of reasonable.

I don’t think Stanley will get more than a bridge deal.

I would enjoy Kase, would love to see him in the bottom six on a value deal. Bring back Stas, 2 years at a lower AAV is fine for me. Matty P, I didn’t like him making $4+, but under $2 on a short deal, better the devil you know. He’s can also slot in on multiple lines.

Dubnyk (or another Vet) for $1.5M should be available, not need to spend too much for them to caddy for Helly 20-25 games next year.

On D... Larsson, Penny’s brother (she the better athlete in that family), Martinez... all gone. Suter want too much $$$.

Looking at the options remaining... not crazy about most. I like Savard, Reilly, Ceci from last year, not the Leafs or OTT version. Not sure much else is out there.

This give the Jets a very solid top 6, with competition between Heinola, Stanley and Samberg to make the team.

I’m not crazy about the roster, but add Prefetti in March, and get some offseason defensive development from Scheifele and Conner... and this team might be good enough defensively to compete.
