Cameron Schilling - CapFriendly - NHL Salary Caps
Interesting... I guess Chairot will be out longer then expected

Or Trouba is about to be traded
I was surprised when I saw this was the guy we recalled but then I remembered he actually already played for the Jets this year
I'd start Schilling over Morrow.
We would have been better off last night dressing 5 D men and letting 44 and 5 pick up the slack.
One of the worst games by a D man I have seen in a Jets 2.0 uni and that includes Stu. He is just clueless. Great set of wheels and a pretty not too bad shot but behind his blue line he is lost and always seems like he is rushed or almost in a panic when other players are forechecking him. He is constantly making the wrong play/pass.
I'd sit Morrow when Buff or Chiarot gets back. Chiarot should ideally be our 4th LHD. The question is, do you play Niku over Chiarot when all the D men are healthy? I don't think Maurice does that.
We should but we won't. Our best D lineup when healthy is...
Morrissey - Trouba
Niku - Byfuglien
Kulikov - Myers
But we'll never see it. I know some will freak at the thought of horrendous defensively Byfuglien with worse than a peewee defensively Niku, but it's far from true. Both excel at what is really the most important defensive aspect of the game nowadays. Moving the puck out of the zone. Both have amazing first passes and both can skate it out. Byfuglien is known for being a vocal leader on the ice which will help Niku immensely. And both have the skating necessary to cover for the other's occasional brain fart. It's really a perfect pairing, IMO. We've seen Byfuglien be at his best with Enstrom. Enstrom 10 years ago with better skating is what Niku brings (people forget Enstrom came into the league as an offensive guy that was questioned about his defensive acumen).

I dont think it will matter because Kuli has gone way too long without an injury.I'd start Schilling over Morrow.
