Ducky Posted March 29, 2015 Author Report Posted March 29, 2015 I like him to but someone has to go, no? Especially if Morrissey makes the team next year. Buff, Myers, Trouba, Enstrom, Chiarot, Postma, Stuart, Harrison, Clitsome and Harrison......Pardy is an UFA. That's 10 D men not counting the farm like Ellerby and Kitchton. Postma, Ellerby and Chiarot are all RFAs after this year and I can't see them letting Postma and Chiarot walk for nothing. Better to re-sign them even if you are going to trade them but who knows. I wouldn't trade any of the first 4 and Stuart will get you the most of the remaining 6 not counting Morrissey.

I've liked Harrison but his age is up there.
Ducky Posted March 29, 2015 Author Report Posted March 29, 2015 Clitsome is signed for 1 more year at 2.067 m...
Rich Posted March 29, 2015 Report Posted March 29, 2015 My guess is Clitsome is done. Long term IR. The back problems he has had aren't good.
Floyd Posted March 29, 2015 Report Posted March 29, 2015 Still don't see the big deal... you pretty much carry eight D on roster (Harrison, Postma or maybe Pardy). Morrissey in St Johns for a year. Ellerby, Brouillette and Kichton are probably career tweeners.

Ducky Posted March 29, 2015 Author Report Posted March 29, 2015 So which 8 are you keeping? Buff, Myers, Trouba, Enstrom, Chiarot and ...
gbill2004 Posted March 29, 2015 Report Posted March 29, 2015 I don't really see any scenario where Bufuglien is with the Jets long term. Trouba, Buff and Myers are all RHD. Trouba ain't going anywhere. Myers is proving he's a #1 D-man who is signed to an amazing contract until 2019 (at around $4.5 mill per season). There simply aren't enough minutes to go around at RHD for Trouba, Byfuglien and Myers. Short-term Maurice said one might shift over to the left, but that's not a long term solution.In addition, Byfuglien will be 31 when his contract is up. There's no way I'd want to commit more than 3 years to a guy with his conditioning history. And Buff is going to command an annual salary of $8 million or more on the market. He'll want 5-7 years is my guess. A contract like that can cripple a team. Just imagine paying Byfuglien $8 mill per season at age 37 or 38. No thanks. I'd much rather use the money on younger guys who will need raises soon like Scheifele and Trouba. Ladd is up for a new contract soon and we want to re-sign at least one of Frolik or Stafford (ideally both).I get it...Byfuglien is a fan favourite, but logic days he won't be here after next season and a good chance he's traded this summer. I hope Chevy is smart enough to see it this way. Jets have recently proven they'd be just fine without Byfuglien. We've gotten the best of him. At age 31, he'll be a diminishing asset. Goalie 1

Ducky Posted March 29, 2015 Author Report Posted March 29, 2015 Postma would have to be re-signed and what do you do with Clitsome...just asking, not disagreeing.
FrostyWinnipeg Posted March 29, 2015 Report Posted March 29, 2015 So which 8 are you keeping? Buff, Myers, Trouba, Enstrom, Chiarot and ... You left out our best defensive dman?
Goalie Posted March 29, 2015 Report Posted March 29, 2015 Toby is our best defensive dman blitzmore 1
Floyd Posted March 29, 2015 Report Posted March 29, 2015 Postma would have to be re-signed and what do you do with Clitsome...just asking, not disagreeing. Clitsome is always injured - waivers and then St Johns Would be a bit of a shame to let Postma walk like Redmond did - but not end of the world.
The Unknown Poster Posted March 29, 2015 Report Posted March 29, 2015 They have to switch one RHD to left or minutes will be hard to come by. If they can do that tjeu have amongst the best top four in the league. And of the bottom two is some combo of Stuart, Chiarot, postma, morrissey...we're doing pretty good. No idea how Chevy will work it out. Could hide chiarot in AHL for awhile. Buy some time.
Ducky Posted March 29, 2015 Author Report Posted March 29, 2015 Chiarot would never clear waivers and Frosty, who are you alluding to as our best defensive D man...who did I miss? I would prefer Pardy over Harrison but would prefer neither if I had a choice.
Floyd Posted March 29, 2015 Report Posted March 29, 2015 I actually don't think three RHD is a huge deal... if Buff ends up as our third pairing but plays powerplay it kind of evens out. Lots of top teams have six really good D... Shattenkirk and Jackman are Blues third pairing for example.

Ducky Posted March 29, 2015 Author Report Posted March 29, 2015 I just spit coffee on my screen when I read this...you're kidding right?
SPuDS Posted March 29, 2015 Report Posted March 29, 2015 Also, when buff gets long in the tooth.... Pretty sure he becomes a third line wing..
The Unknown Poster Posted March 29, 2015 Report Posted March 29, 2015 Can't chiarot be assigned to the A prior to the season beginning without clearing waivers
Goalie Posted March 29, 2015 Report Posted March 29, 2015 Believe Chiarot also will need to be signed. Rfa I think
Ducky Posted May 2, 2015 Author Report Posted May 2, 2015 Taylor Hall-Scheifele-Stafford? Ladd-Little-Wheeler Perrault-Lowry-Armia Thorbs-Copp-Stempniak Myers-Chiarot Jeff Petry-Enstrom Trouba-Morrissey Pavelec-Hutchinson This is after we trade Buff and Stuart and our first rounder from Buffalo for Hall and sign Petry as an UFA. edit: Myers in for one of Trouba
Goalie Posted May 2, 2015 Report Posted May 2, 2015 Where's myers and why would we make that trade? Better yet why would Edmonton
The Unknown Poster Posted May 2, 2015 Report Posted May 2, 2015 You're d are all playing their off side. Especially Trouba who's playing two d positions. Lol
