Quoting: Birtle34
Still kind of hoping for a Center/dman/goalie that will be around possibly for 3/5 years, little scared of going into the deadline a bubble team, with 5 guys with the ability to walk for nothing, especially helly and scheifele. But demelo/dillon/niedreiter also. Was trying to dream up a 3 way deal that got helly and scheifele double retained to a contender via Philly and the jets could check some boxes, but a little above mine and Chevys level of creativity. Happy Canada Day
I'd be happy with a signing of a legit good 3rd or 4th liner... lol 😆
I see some of the guys I thought Chevy should've acquired at the TDL are still unsigned, Sundqvist and Ritchie, one or both would be nice adds especially Sunny since he would be another option at center.
Who's this Viel guy they signed to a one-way contract? Seems like a 4th line tough guy type or an AHLer but if he's an AHL body then why sign him to a one-way contract, Ritchie would've been a better signing for that role cause he can put up points too.
REALLY HOPE AND PRAY 🙏 they're not thinking about trying to convince Helle to extend, he needs to be traded before the season starts, even if he came back to earth with his contract want and signed something in the $7.5-8.5M range it'll be a bad contract.
Would also be nice to see some movement on the blueline, some guys need to go to make room for some younger guys or just upgraded on. Like I wonder if the Jets could sign Dumba considering the cap crunch around the league, find a new home for DeMelo and sign Dumba, really need to upgrade that top pairing somehow.
Unfortunately they're probably done, what you see is what you get. Chevy made a big trade he was forced into, bought out a lingering stench of a problem and signed some backups, what more do we expect him to do?!!... lol 😆
