We talk about the "window" of opportunity and the fact that as our key older players (Wheeler, Byfuglien) get older, their skills/health will begin to decline and the window to win with this bunch starts to close. I think we saw that a little this year with Perreault and Little not as effective as they used to be.
I expect some interesting off-season moves by the Jets. They still have plenty of pieces left, but they need to explore free-agency and the trade market more than ever before. I also expect that they will get a first round pick this draft via a trade.
