This is the Connor pick all over again. No reason he should have been available to the Jets, but this fanbase will gladly welcome him!

A right handed shot that will likely move to the wing and replace Wheeler’s production in a couple seasons (thank the gods).
Over Paul Maurice's dead body. Wheeler will be a rotting corpse before PoMo replaces him on the top line's right side.

He said all the right things but his initial reaction was not a happy one. Jets cost him money.

Yes Stastny was a good addition but we only got what 30 games out of him? Maybe Chevy really thought he could sign Stastny . Hayes was a absolute dog though.

Is Stastny gone now ?? maybe signed with another team, as I have not seen his name mentioned here anymore. I hope the Jets don't sign him, as it's too much money and I'd like to see the youth developed.

As per CapFriendly, Stastny not signed with a team yet.
It's hurry up and wait while we pray Chevy doesn't bring in character vets that are good in the locker room to fill roster holes.

If Stastny played on Lowry's wing for under 3m, I'd take him for a year...especially if MP isn't coming back.
I don't think he re-signs here.

@surixon not sure if this is the thread for this but how many of the Jets draft picks are in the Black Book? Just ordered my copy and I’m curious

Does anyone know when we usually do our Top 20 prospects polls? Our cupboard is beginning to be restocked and I’m looking forward to seeing how our rankings shape up.

Perfetti/Lucius/Heinola/Samberg/Vesalainen is a solid top 5

This is a really interesting interview to watch if you want to learn about Jets scouting analysis.

Sounds like scouts around the league really relied on Video this year. If it works out for us, I wonder if this will become the Norm moving fwd.

Thats how us armchair scouts do it. Seems there was a bit more of a level playing field this year. I think once things get back into swing live scouting will be the norm again. Its a lot easier to get a read on a player live.

Hope you're not jealous of my 'Tim Stützle approved'-jet set lifestyle.


But seriously, are there any more player projections about Lucius? I only saw Elias Lindholm mentioned. I'm not sure about Scheifele as comparison from the (limited amount) videos I saw.

Scheifele as a comparable was only discussed because he says he models his game after him. I don't really see a lot of it.

On the broadcast they mentioned Kyle Connor as a good comparable. I think Lucius will be a top 6 winger but might have some trouble sticking as a C with his skating issues.

I see somewhere between KC and 55. He's not as one dimensional as KC. His skating looks more like an 18 y/o 55. He's a better scorer than playmaker, like 55, but not to KC's extent. KC is up and down the wing and score for close in. Lucius can score close in or from distance. From my limited viewings and reading, he has a chance to be an NHL centre...needs to fill out and make strides on his skating.
