Ooooh yeah heah...

Oooohhh whllaaat it burrrrrn

Ugh does Poile do anything right anymore? A 2nd in 24 is a very underwhelming return.

Nashville seems to be new at this whole selling thing. No reason to rush this, take it to the wire and make ‘em sweat more. Demand at least another pick, even if just for optics. 2nd and a 5th just feels better, even if it likely doesn’t matter.

Solid move for both teams.

Nashville is in selling mode, this confirms it.

They are 7 points behind the Avs and simply can't catch them, good move for them.

Enjoy the armchair.

OK, that is an awesome tweet.

No one wants to take on money. The extra year on Nino's deal likely lowered the value, as it removed a bunch of other suitors from the mix. Contenders are more able to take on expiring contracts for "mid" players because they can finangle the cap this season, but will need to absorb the full cap hit next season.

A 2nd round pick seems perfectly fair. I like it for Winnipeg. Nino is a very solid, straightforward, middle-six winger.

Everything is happening!!!

Everything???

 

[Truenorthducky]

OK, that is an awesome tweet.

now pls get Smaltz of Crouse.

 

[Royale With Cheese]

OK, that is an awesome tweet.

The jets social media has been pretty good lately. There was a saucy Facebook post about “69” points on Valentine’s Day that was pretty good. It’s been taken down now - I guess someones mom called in and complained.

That’s where the “don’t rush it” comes in though- if the extra year is actually seen as a negative, ok, worst case is you wait until next year.

Nice move by the Jets.

Nino for the playoffs? Strange.
If you need clutch, you should have picked Granlund.

Nino scored one of the best playoff goals in Wild history

Kinda funny that Nashville was willing to waive a solid young player in Tolvanen only to end up selling anyways.

 

[Predigree]

No one want him in free Agents and now he is worth more than a 2nd? I am suprised about the reactions here.

Ya pretty awful decision this year. It's good they finally picked a direction, but only at the deadline. That's the hallmark of a bubble team and you really don't want to be that for multi years.

I suppose it’s a bit of give and take topic

With the Perfetti injury it's a great move by the Jets

I think it was even without the Perfetti injury. The Jets needed players that can play 2nd or 3rd line minutes that can score prior to Perfetti's injury.

I think this move was coming anyway. And I’d like to see another forward traded for as well. When Mason Appleton is your 1st line right wing, it’s time to do something.

To reiterate, 12 points in 43 Carolina playoff games.

A budget price for a budget add makes sense.

To let you know, Carolina doesn’t have many players at all known for their playoff scoring. Might not be a Nino problem. I don’t think the plan was for him to lead the way.

 

[TGWL]

On pace for 40'ish pace.
Makes 4 million next season.
A 2nd round pick here sounds about right. I don't know why some think everybody should return a 1st. This is your ideal 2nd round pick trade if you're the Jets and Nashville.

 

[bolt thrower]

I really love this move for the Jets. Nino is a good player and getting him for a 2nd is a great deal.

 

[tarheelhockey]

OK, that is an awesome tweet.

It was a thing on Canes Twitter.

 

[sting101]

Just goes to show how bad the market is for middle six players that make 3 million plus. Flat cap has to have somebody become the victims when players are still getting raises and the Cap has been stuck a 81 million for 3 yrs

Great deal for Winnipeg.

 

[Rob Brown]

Is he expected to play today?
