Top 6 ppg game guys and d specialists like Lowry.WTF?
The guy is seventh in PPG among our forwards. If Perreault is not good enough, who the **** is?

That would mean Wheeler and Lowry. Go on?Top 6 ppg game guys and d specialists like Lowry.
Armia
Could also come down to something like:
Armia @ 1.5 + an asset for Petan
Petan @ 800k + an asset for Armia
I could see trimming salary and recouping picks as priorities.
Perreault or Little could also end up in on the chopping block instead. I mean, I expect the Jets to try to trim salary via Myers or Kuli first, but that may not be an option.
light on d depth, heavy on forward depth. so i doubt Kuli or Myers are gone this season. Nike isn't a replacement for either of them or Enstrom.Armia

OK, where did this "we hate MP" narrative come from?
Also wondering. Should have sat him yesterday and then played him saturday so he's not sitting too long before playoffs. Don't play him saturday now he'll be sitting for a week.Do you guys think Hellebuyck will start Saturday?
You guys are locked in, this game has no implications?Also wondering. Should have sat him yesterday and then played him saturday so he's not sitting too long before playoffs. Don't play him saturday now he'll be sitting for a week.
Not sure who that might be. Most of the Jets' bottom 6 won't be making that much (Copp, Tanev, Armia, etc.). To be honest, the best option might be Perreault. He'd be tough to replace, but the Jets now have some very good bottom-6 players that can hold their own, and his $4.1M cap hit would give them more room for some other younger players.Given the impending cap crunch it could make sense for the Jets to try and unload a player from the bottom of the roster and keep cheap fill ins like Petan or Dano. I'm not sure that he'll be gone.
Perreault's on-ice results are undeniably good. I am in awe with some of these takes.The poster you're referencing has been bashing Frenchie since he joined 2 years ago. One has him trading Perreault for a bucket of chicken. Another suggests Petan is already twice the player Perreault was at his peak. There's dozens more proposing/predicting Chevy trades him to Montreal, I'm assuming for no other reason than because he's French
Ridiculous.
Perreault is arguably the best defensive forward on the team. The line of Little, Perreault & Armia are shutting down the NHL's best lines game after game, controlling the puck, tilting play to the offensive zone, outshooting the opposition & getting off the ice during sustained offensive pressure setting the stage for a wave of offence off the bench.
Come the playoffs I'm sure Mathieu will be making fans of everyone. Players like him shine in this environment.
I can't see Maurice not giving him a chance to take the sole possession of the one-season win record by an American goaltender. One of the Jets' insiders hinted this on Twitter, too.Do you guys think Hellebuyck will start Saturday?
we say this, but i still am not 100% certain he's gone. we assume both armia and tanev are back. we assume Hendricks is gone. if Chevy were smart, he'd see if there's a market for Little....or our beloved Matty P.
stastny is gone.
soooo....if one assumes that the only roster move is letting Stastny go? then sure, Petan's gone. there's also little harm in having him Dano it up for the year. a burnt asset's a burnt asset.
Unloading a player from the bottom of the roster doesn't really do anything for an impending cap crunch, however a mid level one does.Given the impending cap crunch it could make sense for the Jets to try and unload a player from the bottom of the roster and keep cheap fill ins like Petan or Dano.

Dano is already here and has been all season. So no room needs to be made for him on the roster. If he stays and isn't dealt playing time will come if deserved, or it won't and he'll be a depth forward again.I think we can safely assume that Stastny, Hendricks and Matthias are gone. That makes room for Rosie, Petan and Dano.
Vesalainen, Lemieux, Appleton and Spacek could take a step and challenge Petan and Dano. It seems that just about every TC has at least 1 surprise contender.
I really think it is time to thin the herd a bit. At least 1, maybe 2 of Petan, Dano, Lemieux, Lipon and Appleton should be moved this off-season. Maybe packaged with a roster player.
Here's a WAR chart of this season for Jets forwards by Sean Tierney based on Corsica's data:
You can check out all players here: Tableau Public
Yeah, WAR for defenders seems a little suspect to me.Morrissey and Trouba are the best two WAR dmen again which isn't surprising. What is surprising is Buff being dead last on the team. It looks like they are really punishing him for his lack of discipline.
Unloading a player from the bottom of the roster doesn't really do anything for an impending cap crunch, however a mid level one does.
The logical choice ( for some ) seems to be a forbidden thought to many though.
7th in ppg on our team. That means Connor, Wheeler, Chef, Stas (or little) Ehlers, Laine and Lowry play with a 7 man roster so 2 and 1/3 lines =)That would mean Wheeler and Lowry. Go on?
Last I checked, a team ices twelve forwards.7th in ppg on our team. That means Connor, Wheeler, Chef, Stas (or little) Ehlers, Laine and Lowry play with a 7 man roster so 2 and 1/3 lines =)
You missed the smiley face which means I was being sarcastic. Of course you can't play with 2 lines. Don't you look foolish for getting all worked up.Last I checked, a team ices twelve forwards.
Opinions are opinions, but ****ing hell, is yours a misinformed one.
Hopefully these line drivers are putting up more points than 3 in 22 games. You know, assists passing the puck to those "super talented" guys.Agree, but I'm scared of a world where we keep all the "super talented" guys but have no real solid all-around line drivers, and then are stuck midway through next season wondering why so many players seem to lack chemistry.
