who cares. the Stasny rental was a huge win. we got exactly what you want out of a rental player and then didn't overpay to resign him. He put us in solid cup contention. sure we lost to a red hot goalie standing on his head...but that can happen to any team. Hays...didn't work out...that happens sometimes too, but on paper it was the right decision. again no need to retain the rental because we wouldn't have room for him now on the cap anyway. and yes we lost a first.....there is a cost to doing business it's not like we don't have talented youth in the system.
LOL...who cares...look where we are in the standings....and look at our 2nd line center, waiver wire cast offs, trading for a top four d man on a bottom four team is not getting this team into SC playoffs, what are we now, in the same league as Ottawa?!.....it is poor management that has cost this team this season...chevy knew about Meyers and chariot leaving and really did nothing....he had no plan B.
We are a team that has out-drafted our position a bunch of times and still find valuable assets despite those "losses" let alone the 2015 goldmine.
If you take a look at where we are in development of drafted players, our playoff position, Cap considerations and the upcoming entry draft and injuries and we are a well managed team with a ton of assets we can afford to spend a little to fill needs. with Buff gone we needed to do something to salvage this year and here we are, in a playoff race and trending up after a mid season slump...
Poolman just seems overwhelmed at times in the top pairing. Which is completely understandable.I'm always puzzled by the Poolman love. I haven't liked his game at all. That hit on the Tkachuk might be the only thing I've liked.

Shouldn’t we give him 5 games before signing him to 4 yrs?What would DeMelo’s contract ask this summer be? And what is reasonable?
Jets will have some cap space, and if he would sign a 3-4 year $2.5-$3.0 M/yr deal, I think that would be great value for the Jets. He’s still young and developing, so a multi year deal works.
He doesn’t score as much as Pionk, and Pionk got $3M/yr as a RFA. DeMelo, as a UFA, might get a slight overpay for his production (or lack there of).
If he continues to play solid hockey for Jets, would he sign a 4 year, $12-$13M deal? Would the Jets offer that?

Unfortunately he is going to get paaaaiiiiiid. So,unless he likes the team and wants to win here - we're probably not in the conversation.What would DeMelo’s contract ask this summer be? And what is reasonable?

I don't think he'll get more than $2.5M AAV over 2 or 3 years maybe. Probably less money. He doesn't really put up points and his game is defensively competent but under-the-radar.Unfortunately he is going to get paaaaiiiiiid. So,unless he likes the team and wants to win here - we're probably not in the conversation.
I don’t think the ask will be unreasonable. Players need the counting stats to get the big contracts. A solid stay at home d man will get a good not a big contract. $ 3-4 M would be all he could reasonably expect.Unfortunately he is going to get paaaaiiiiiid.

It could be Chevys best move if we extend him. Sign him for 4 years at 4 million per year.Fantastic pickup by Chevy, a legit top-4 (top-2?) defender for a mere third round pick. We got the defender we needed without giving up a top winger. How could anyone NOT like this deal??
i like this value. similar to the Kempny acquisition and signing by WSHI would guess around 2.5M on a 3-4 year deal.
Little too steep for my likingIt could be Chevys best move if we extend him. Sign him for 4 years at 4 million per year.

i am curious of what a new Piok contract looks like. he has been a surprise this year, i think given that the expectations were kind of low due to his performance in NYR, but i still do not think he is that great. IMO: His defensive game still needs work, he does have some offensive skills however it is not really translating into 5v5 pts and his production is mostly PP driven via secondary assists. 13 5v5 pts and .69 pts/60 is not really that great. and although he's been productive on the PP, the PP is less effective as a whole imo when he's on there. He's leading our Dmen in pts and ATOI which are usually the main drivers for cap hitPionk is going to garner big money on his next deal, assuming he keeps up his pace - currently the 16th defenseman in points/game...although a lot of that is from playing lots on the Jets power play. He's still tied for 46th in ES points. Still, Top 20 defensemen get somewhere north of 8.5% of the cap ($6.9M) and Top 50 get 6.8% or better ($5.5M).
We’re screwed if we ever that pay in that range for Pionk.Pionk is going to garner big money on his next deal, assuming he keeps up his pace - currently the 16th defenseman in points/game...although a lot of that is from playing lots on the Jets power play.
