You're being deliberately obtuse. The point was tied directly to one pick, not all the pics. And that one pick which was an "off the board" selection. I mean, I could explain it to you but I think you understood it.
JCon Posted April 19, 2017 Report Posted April 19, 2017 Let's not forget Chevy's home run with Morrissey. He went off the board for him, when he was ranked late in the first round. Around 26th on most boards, I think.

Button who tends to be darn close to what the Jets do had Morrissey around 16 to 18 I think.

Unless you are implying the Scheiffle pick was drawn out of a hat or a dart board was involved. Otherwise the question really amounts to how good would he be at his job if he was less good at his job? Then the answer you are leading us to by the nature of the question is: less good. sweep the leg 1
Goalie Posted April 19, 2017 Report Posted April 19, 2017 Watching the playoffs most teams have 3 scoring lines and a 4th which Is a shutdown line. Maurice runs 2 scoring lines... his 3rd as a shutdown and a 4th that barely plays. Watching these OT games makes me wonder how dead would wheeler scheif Ehlers Laine Perreault and little be if they had to play double OT.

Very true, but I chalk it up to a lack of players as much as coaching. You could move the Lowry line to the 4th line and call it a shutdown line but then who is your 3rd scoring line? If it includes Nic Petan and Marko Dano I think that's the answer right there.... it's not realistic. However, next year if we can squeeze a scoring line out of Connor, Roslovic, Harkins, Copp, or maybe a free agent or two? Then we're in business.

So depending on how many Europeans would be ranked higher, he was probably a 20-30 guy. Not "off the board" as I said but definitely a surprise at #7. I believe there was an audible sense of surprise from the TSN panel when Chevy called his name.
Brandon Posted April 19, 2017 Report Posted April 19, 2017 (edited) 7 hours ago, The Unknown Poster said: Im not ready to give up on Helle but if Chevy goes into next season with zero competition for the starter and a "hope" that Helle can be good, he probably should move on. I like Chevy but that can change in a hurry. Drafting well is nice. Its a testament to your scouts and vision. But a GM cant let his team flounder because he's afraid to make a move. On H & L he was the one who brought up the "Look at Carey Price and his numbers over his first few years". The team is really high on Comrie and based on what I hear on the radio it looks like they want him to be the man in 2-3 seasons. This is why I don't see them going for a younger guy like Fleury because the end game goal is Comrie starting and Helle backing him up in 3 seasons. We will sign a Pavelec 2.0 to be the stop gap and Helle will get his 50 starts next season. Just to clarify I personally hate this and wish they would sign a proven Winner... you can't wait years on a goalie to be the guy... we wasted so many on Pavs we would of been better off keeping Montoya.

Goalie Posted April 19, 2017 Report Posted April 19, 2017 (edited) I still think Raanta Darling Johnson are all realistic options and I tend to think Bernier is another. I think the Jets get Raanta via Vegas who takes him in the expansion draft. I could see something like Phillips plus 2nd round pick to Vegas for Raanta. Possibly even Petan also as I don't see a spot in the top 9 for him. Getting an upgrade on Hutch shouldn't be that difficult. Bishop if he's OK on a 2 or 3 yr deal or Steve Mason might be other options also. Mason does make some sense actually Edited April 19, 2017 by Goalie

I think Ehlers Scheif Wheeler Perreault Little Laine Connor Lowr Armia Mathias Copp UFA Is something we could see. On paper that looks good. Could also Laine Scheif Ehlers Connor Little Wheeler Perreault Lowry Armia Matthias Copp FA Both are actually very good 4 lines Jets have some options Roslovic Harkins probably start in the A but are first call ups The Unknown Poster 1

Matthias is on both 4th lines of Goalie's projections. No room for Petan on this team. As for Dano, well if Jets go 8-3-1 at expansion there's a good chance he be picked. Oh and he ended season in doghouse so there is that. Edited April 20, 2017 by FrostyWinnipeg

The Unknown Poster Posted April 20, 2017 Report Posted April 20, 2017 Petan would get some interest in a trade. I look at the Pens and can't help thinking he'd look pretty good in their top 9 Ducks would be another potential trade partner with a lot of solid d

Floyd Posted April 22, 2017 Report Posted April 22, 2017 A tale of two franchises... Stan Bowman on the Hawks playoff exit... “I am completely, completely disappointed, it is unacceptable to be where we are today,” Bowman said Saturday, per NBC's ProHockeyTalk. "I am frustrated, I am angry, this was a tough, tough loss for us all to take. Standing here April 22 is not the way we expected our season to end. It is a completely failure when you measure it against the expectations that we have for ourselves. We did not come even close to reaching the standard we have set over the years here. And that is unacceptable. Any successes that we did experience this year are completely overshadowed by the abrupt ending to our season. It is not close to good enough for anybody." Chevy on another lost season... “Like anything, there are certain points that you really like and certain points you'd like to see better,” said Cheveldayoff. “There are lots of different storylines, but at the end of the day, we measure ourselves on a daily basis, a game-by-game basis and at the end, we want to be above the line when it comes to the playoffs. That's what we're working towards and this group still has to earn that opportunity.” bb1 and Atomic 2
FrostyWinnipeg Posted April 22, 2017 Report Posted April 22, 2017 Well Bowman overpaid on 2 players. That's all i know.
Floyd Posted April 23, 2017 Report Posted April 23, 2017 So jealous of Oilers PK... box collapses but then expands with puck movement, always one guy aggressive after the puck... that's the way to do it.
