Sujet: Jets off-season possibility 12
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Benzino204</b></div><div>Svech has familiarity with Dubois as they were teammates in the Q. Harkins is faster, but he doesn't have that chemistry with PLD and KFC. He's better suited for the bottom six.

I'm not really against Schief on the wing, I'm against him being on the team. He pouted for the entire season and made no effort defensively.</div></div>

That thing with Scheif is fair, he seems very entitled, dating back to when he got mad at the Jets for sending him back to the icecaps. For Harkins, his chemistry sure looked good to me last game. We will see tonight, as they are on the same line again but I think it will go well. And just because Svech and Dubois played in junior it doenst mean that you just plug him in on the same line in the NHL. He also hasn’t been that effective win a bottom six role so we will see what happens.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Benzino204</b></div><div>If Harkins is our top line right winger, we're in trouble.

Svechnikov was the RW on our best line of the year and he should be extended, not traded.

I
Demelo and Morrissey was a good pairing, all that needs to happen for the defense is to insert Samberg and Heinola in the lineup permanently and fire Charlie Huddy.

Schefiele on the wing won't solve much. He should be traded if there's a good deal out there. Only keep him if the offers are a joke.

That third line looks nice. I don't think Wheeler belongs in the top 2 lines anymore, and should be used to mentor Perfetti.</div></div>

I disagree with that take. First off, the centre position is so complex and different from the wing. Scheif has proved that in terms of the defensive side of the game, things can get overwhelming for him or he just doesn’t care. If he’s on the wing, not to say that he wouldnt have to play defense (because he would) but there is less responsibility. Stastny taking over centre could possibly fix some of these problems. I also don’t think it’s fair to say it changes nothing without giving it an actual shot to see how things go.

In terms of Harkins, I get it if u didn’t read my explanation because it is really long but I think Harkins is better suited on that line then Svech. Harkins provides lots more speed and puck retrieval than Svech. For Svech, the skill has always been there but the skating has always held him back.

Sujet: If the Jets Standpat for one more year
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>rookescr96</b></div><div>I really don't think the Jets should/will be giving away Stanley and Harkins. I don't think they have the forward "depth" everyone talks about them having. In previous years Copp - Lowry - Appleton/Tanev provided a physical shutdown third line that was one of the best in the league. This year that third line has kind of dissipated. I agree Wheeler hasn't been great and probably deserves to be on the third line but in order to get the most out of his remaining salary I bet he continues in the top 6 and hope he regains some mojo he had a couple seasons ago.

And yes I could see them resigned statsny and he probably isn't the worst option to be on your second line but can you honestly say he would be a top six winger on a cup contending team? I think of Mini, St. Louis, Colorado, Vegas, Edmonton, Calgary all the powerhouse teams in the West Statsney wouldn't be in their top 6. Finally implementing Cole Perfetti in the top six makes sense but he's still unproven and needs to develop.

I don't think the back end has been great all year but I also think a lot of their problems have come from the forward depth running out</div></div>

I agree mostly with everything you are saying but once again, this is if they standpat with their core wnd don’t make any major changes. I think the defense needs to be addressed (once again) however, they won’t address it if they decide to give this core one more year. They also don’t have alt of cap space to make moves this upcoming off season, unless they were to make a big trade.

Sujet: Jets need changes but they wont do it
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Mr_Canoehead</b></div><div>Its interesting to see what an outsider who assesses NHL prospects for a living thinks and this interview with Scott Wheeler (The Athletic) last week was interesting: <div class="yt_out_cont"><div class="yt_cont"><iframe width="560" height="315" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/In8pWN7tLqI" frameborder="0"></iframe></div></div>

He says Perfetti, Lucius, Heinola, Chibrikov, Gustafsson, Rashevsky and Samberg are the top prospects and then there is a big drop off after that. Says that Kovacevic, Chisholm, Gawanke will just be organizational depth. Also he is not high at all on Vesalainen. He goes into some detail on the top guys, his disappointment with Vesalainen and speaks about a bunch of others briefly. For me that interview points out how Jets fans (including myself) are overvaluing the depth prospects and shouldn't be pencilling in Kovacevic or Gawanke higher than a 6/7 D-man.

I agree that it would be good to see some of the prospects up with the Jets for a spell to see what they can offer and at the very least a bit of a showcase in the event they can be included in an offseason deal.</div></div>

Although Scott Wheeler has obviously scouted these guys for years, I did watch that video a couple days ago and disagreed with his take on Kovacevic. Although not really there offensively, he was a great shut down d man that the Jets could use more of.
