When is the last time the Jets started the year with 3 players on the 4th line that can all be reasonably expected to score 30 points?
If they trade Schiefele without a similar replacement, they'll need to have a much stronger bottom six than past years. Maybe not a bad strategy to have a more balanced 4 lines.

Needs to improve his finish but I also think he can be a high impact third line winger.
Haha I was just thinking that Jets need to get him more draws this year to see if we can get him back to C again

Even with Scheif, balancing four lines is kind of necessary now.

So Jets will have $7m? Going by Chevy's money management style...
Kupari 1.1
Stan 1.1
Vilardi 2.4
$3m left over (?)

1 x 1m
1 x 1.25m
2 x 3.25m
1.5m left for bonuses and injuries?

I'd offer Vilardi a 1 x 4m. A show me contract. At the very least, with Vilardi, we probably have a 55-60 point 2RW that plays the PP. High end would be 1C but I am hoping and will be happy with a 2C.

This is a big contract for Barron. It leaves him one year away for being an UFA. He could really set himself up well for a life setting contract after this one. I can see him getting a 4 year deal if he performs on this one.
If we had Barron Lowry Apples as the 4th line next season, I'd wager that the team makes the playoffs.

i think for Cup-team or a team looking to make long PO run he's better suited as a 4th liner. last off-season i was wondering why there was so much hype on him, and although he does try hard, didn't really amount to much on the score-sheet. nor did it really elevate that third line to CLT-like overall on-ice results. i think this is a fine deal for both sides i guess? here's to hoping he has some finishing touch for 23-24 and no prolonged droughts.

Yeah I see 2@ 1.1 for each of Kupri and Stanley. I see two @800k for Chisholm (major thing will be if both years are one way).

Vilardi I see the org trying to go long at 5.5 for 6 years.

I also still expect a dmen to be traded to free some more cap space.

Looks like they have Barron-Lowry penciled in as line 'pairings' but I always though Lowry-Apples was the better half of that... would really like to see Barron-Kupari as our fourth line combo of Centres

These seem reasonable -- I see no reason to resign Stanley with Capo still in the stable and Chisholm / Heinola fighting for a spot. He's had longer looks in more favourable circs than pretty much any other rookie D since JMo / Trouba.

They need to let him go, hopefully via trade. Chevy can't keep all his guys, especially with the current LDH logjam.

I agree that he should be traded but they still have to ink him to a deal to make him attractive to other teams.
