Goalie Posted June 21 Report Posted June 21 It wouldn’t surprise me to see Winnipeg trade Ehlers after July 1 but I feel the draft is the ideal time if you want a 1st this year. Rental Ehlers = 1st plus prospect at deadline. With 1 year left I’d guess 2 1st plus prospect type or a 1 for 1 like say Ottawa for Chychrun or maybe Chabot.

Goalie Posted June 22 Report Posted June 22 Who cares. He’s a guy who thinks he should be gifted a spot on a 110 point team I’d trade him also for more than he’s worth. Dudes skating isn’t up to snuff in the nhl. You can’t gift him a top 6 spot. FrostyWinnipeg 1

We're all trading him for the #4 pick right?

Goalie Posted June 22 Report Posted June 22 Part of draft and development is the development part. Rutger shouldn’t be handed a spot.
rebusrankin Posted June 22 Report Posted June 22 We're never going to attract top free agents. Tons of players have NTC to our club. So draft and develop but Rutger is not about the third prospect (Ville, Cole) that we've pissed off. Chevy and TN need to take a hard look in the mirror. JCon 1

Atomic Posted June 22 Report Posted June 22 He'd have a chance to make the team in camp, only reason he would need a guarantee of an NHL spot is if he didn't believe in himself. We don't need players with no balls Goalie 1

Goalie Posted June 22 Report Posted June 22 (edited) We also need to realize that if we listened to the insiders last year 55 and 37 would be elsewhere so I’ll use a statement that Friedman uses lots, I THINK he’s sometimes full of ****. apparently the crux of the Rutger situation is he wants to be guaranteed a spot. I’m not sure there. I don’t think his skating is nhl ready, he’s similar to Perfetti but grittier but skating isn’t the strong suit. jets need to add speed to their roster. You already have Perfetti and Vilardi and maybe the ultra slow Monahan (still think someone will overpay him) how is adding the slower Rutger improve the speed when u also likely trading your fastest best skater in Ehlers. Rutger plus Ehlers plus Stanley to Columbus for Jiricek plus. Maybe pick 4. Columbus seems to want to make a statement Edited June 22 by Goalie
bb1 Posted June 23 Report Posted June 23 I would not mind losing Perfetti for a 1st and 3rd, McGroarty first he says the Jets were treating him like Gold now he wants a job handed to him? These young guys are changing the NHL and it is not good for a small market team.😔 Goalie 1

And part of being a professional franchise in this day and age is realizing that you need to take some swings. We overbake our prospects in the AHL and have them on a tight leash if they ever do get here and it’s no surprise that young guys are starting to wake up to it. This isn’t an ideal place to go if you want to have a chance at cracking a roster as a young player. We’re in a window of time with our core, why not give guys like RMG a shot early on and see if they can surprise us? HardCoreBlue, JCon, rebusrankin and 2 others 3 2

You’re stuck in the past And still think it’s scoring line 1 2 and 2 checking lines when it don’t work like that no more.

This does not need to be an either or situation (i.e., make sure they are fully baked in the AHL or take a swing and see what they got at the NHL level). It can be a blend of both. Dr Zaius 1
