They lost ZERO players. And still have a first round pick. Ugh they were already protected we could of only lost Dano or Enstrom. We dropped down 11 spots for ethier one ....

bb1 Posted June 22, 2017 Report Share Posted June 22, 2017 1 minute ago, Atomic said: With the NMC we would have had to trade with VGK to protect Myers which would have been an even steeper cost. Any defenceman drafted 13th overall isn't going to be in the league for 2 years at least. Like Morrissey. Who's to say we still desperately need an LHD 2 years down the road? Needing an LHD right now is irrelevant to the trade. Who's signing here? Who's making 5 mil+ and doesn't have WPG on their no trade list? Really not that simple at all. So your willing to drop 11 spots for Dano or Enstrom huh? 5 mill ain't gonna get us a decent free agent d-man man? Hey if one those 2 players are worth it to u great trade then. They are obviously over estimated by Chevy. If there is nothing else to this. Imo horrible overpay for 2 marginal players at best in this stage of their careers.

Jets HAD to make a deal to protect him. Hell a few hours ago we thought we were losing Dano AND a draft pick. We swapped picks. Other teams gave more. We lost ZERO players. How hard is that to understand? They had to do something because they promised Toby. If they wouldn't make that promise then they either lose Myers or leave perreault or Lowry exposed. They dropped 11 spots in a weak draft to preserve all their players. Get it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If that was the case then you drop down to protect Lowry or Perreault if you can't get a NMC you don't get your ass kicked for Enstrom by promising him you will what protect him at all cost? What if this wasnt enough for Lvk then what? No way Chevy promises Enstrom he will protect him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bb1 Posted June 22, 2017 Report Share Posted June 22, 2017 The reason Chevy asked Enstrom to waive his Nmc is because he was the best player to lose if the Jets had to lose a player... should of let him go. We basically blew a whole year last year to draft 24??? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Theyd rather have a ufa and a pick tho. So we move back a few spots... Oh well. A decent player will still be there and like at pick 13 wont help for 2 or 3 years still. Maybe chevy aint done yet. Perhaps he moves pick 24 for something. Who knows. He did kind of say pick 13 was in play a while back. But... Oh well... We keep our entire roster and still have a first... Nyi and Columbus gave up 1sts and got nothing back. bustamente 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SpeedFlex27 Posted June 22, 2017 Report Share Posted June 22, 2017 (edited) We didn't lose anyone other than Thorburn & he won't be missed. I think that's a bonus. You see the faces of Crosby & Lemieux when the Marc Andre Fleury pick was announced. That said everything. Chevy has to get busy on July 1st. Signing a goaltender in free agency is paramount. He can't sit on the sidelines anymore being a disinterested participant as in previous years. This summer he has to actually do something.

No. It probably costs more. Look what other teams gave up to protect players other teams lost a player AND gave a pick if not more. Jets lost no players and swapped picks, didn't give one away. I know this seems complicated but it isn't. Chevy made a great deal to keep his entire roster intact AND keep a first round pick. He could only have done better or Vegas actually gave us something Goalie 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Already rumors of TVR to Carolina and Miller to Toronto. This team is going to suck.. Bad. They skipped on top 4 d like manson or vatanen and skipped on dumba because a 3rd line center and prospect from minny worked better. Ppl talk about tanking...

bustamente Posted June 22, 2017 Report Share Posted June 22, 2017 Think there will be a flurry of trades before the draft and during the draft, Chevy needs to be a player and get us a goalie to complement and push Helle, do not want to see Hutch back as a back up next season.
