Jets Prospects

He did.  He also pushed back on people that were upset, saying he felt it was best for his game to skip the tournament.  He said he has one year to play in Finland and wants to focus on his pro game.  

Good to know.  If his motivation is to work on his pro game, he probably should have stayed here on the smaller ice...  But he seems to have a plan in place; hopefully it's the right one.

Thank you sir, but that looks like last years list.

Yeah, Berdin would be call gramps if he was playing.

#NHLJets prospect Kristian Vesalainen spoke about his decision not to go to #WorldJuniors in Vancouver: "I just came to Finland and I wanted to play the rest of the season with one team. It was a hard but right decision."

"I have traveled enough with all that jet lag. Going to Vancouver, then back to Finland, then to China, back to Finland... that would've been crazy and too much."

"I was thinking about this decision already when I came here. I spent a lot of time thinking about what to do. Now I'm happy with my decision. Sometimes you have to be a little bit selfish. I wish team Finland and the guys best of luck, I hope they'll come home with a medal."

Looking for something positive in this.

Not finding any.

I doubt he'd be going to World Juniors if he had stayed with the Moose...

[rebusrankin]

Article in the Athletic today, if he stays overseas for the year and doesn't play 10 NHL games, his ELC doesn't start this year but next year and he would not have to be protected for the 2021 Expansion draft.

[BomberBall]

So, I guess it will be Samberg, Gustafsson and Virtanen at the World Juniors?  Is there anyone else I'm missing?

[The Unknown Poster]

Sounds like jets are still high on him and want him back here

Based on how the guys on the radio were talking this week... it seems like Comrie might be traded for picks at the draft and that they'll be moving forward with Berdin being the prospect goalie....

Depends if they sign Broissoit. Likely will. So makes sense to move Comrie. Hes having a great year too.

No way they start Samberg in the bigs. He's headed to the Moose for seasoning. He needs to learn how to play at the professional level.

It will be good to have a few prospects on the Moose d-line.   Stanley apparently has improved steadily this season with them.

agreed  Samberg looks like he could be a good one.  Niku is good.  D looked like a problem but it might not be too bad.

A lot will depend on Trouba. Stay or leave and finding the right return if he is leaving.

I suspect we will go to arb and trade him at the deadline. Unless NJD want a pretty good D man.

I don't think they'll get that far. I bet, if he's not going to sign, the Jets swing a deal by the time FA starts. That way, they have the plan in place for the year. The Jets will still be contenders next year, even if they bow out early this year. 

NJD or NYR. I'll take either!!!

[The Unknown Poster]

If they go to Arb again, I believe its a one year deal and Trouba becomes a UFA.  So thats a bad deal for the Jets.  It would tell the other teams that he's a problem and lower the return.  I think they know right now what the plan is...sign or trade.

Yes, it's a one-year deal. I think most outsiders would see Trouba trying to become a UFA, rather than being a problem. Hence, his peak value is this spring, after the parade, but before they're forced to go to arbitration. I could see a sign and trade.

What I mean is no team is trading for him without being allowed to talk contract first.  If it gets to the deadline he could be a deadline UFA but his value is lower and the Jets end up trading away a top player when they're competing for the playoffs themselves.  Or lose him for nothing.  They have to make a decision this summer.  

And its already close enough to UFA status that Trouba will have leverage.  A team will want to know they can sign him which means he can dictate where he goes.
