Probably waiting to see who they keep. If Perreault is moved, they might be inclined to keep Petan and/or Dano.
Where do you see a trade window now? Before FA frenzy, just after, or some other time?

I see them shopping Perrault just after FA frenzy to teams that missed out on players.
OK. I'm just wondering what are the periods when trades typically happen. It used to be, years ago that trades could and did happen anytime. Now it seems like the trade windows are fairly rigidly defined but my memory isn't good enough to know when are all the periods when they typically happen.
I think that now until July 1, a lot of GMs will be giving their attention to the FA market. But they could also be thinking of filling their holes now with a trade for less cap hit than FA frenzy would require.
Then by mid July the frenzy will have passed and, as you say there will be teams that missed out. Is that period quite short? Or does it last until TC opens? We don't want to wait for the next window. We will already be getting hit with cap.
Other GM's will be fully aware of our pending cap issues. They will be trying to steal somebody.
I would not be surprised at all to see absolutely no movement from the Jets. Dano/Petan will be in danger of being exposed on the waiver wire if the Jets don't trade these guys but it would not surprise me one bit if the Jets don't trade any roster players/prospects like Dano/Petan.

This year is a bit special, the unresolved Tavares/Carlson/Kovalchuk situations pretty much prevented trades at the draft, I guess. Only one single 2018 pick was moved for a player on draft day, that's really low activity so far.

In all the news around the league about Tavares hitting free agency, the Hurricanes seemingly retooling, Kovalchuk coming back (and Voynov wanting to as well), Panarin not wanting to sign with Columbus, Erik Karlsson and the Senators issues, and then the draft it feels like Stastny's been the forgotten man in the media. A lot of big news to overshadow a pretty decent crop of free agents.
I'm curious to know what he'd be willing to accept to stay. His production hasn't been much better than Little's over the past few years, but chemistry is hard to ignore. If he gets term (4+ years) would he cost less than Little given that he's older? The Jets almost assuredly wouldn't be able to fit whatever he'd get from a more desperate team under the cap.

Avs can offer more, but at this point he'd probably go where his best chance is to win. He's made 60 million after his last two contracts, another 20 million coming, I think he can afford to take a little less in exchange for a chance to win and in a place him and his family enjoy. I think he's here 100% if Chevy can move salary.
Concede you the chemistry (with Ehlers & Laine) but Little has actually outproduced him in ppg over the last 4 years.
Whatever is the most wildly optimistic combination of $$$ and term that you think he would accept it is still way beyond the Jets ability to fit under the cap - unless some significant player is moved out to make room. Those players not being named Myers or Perreault, because they have to go even without Stastny. And not being named Mason or Kulikov either because those contracts are immovable in their own right, unless someone else is thrown in to pay some team to take them.
Myers and PerreaultWho do you think he might move to make room? Myers and Perreault don't count.
Myers and Perreault
Even if they bridge Jmo? And replace bottom 6 with cheaper options?That allows you to fit him in for only one season. That is asking an awful lot of the player to only sign a one year deal. After next season we can't fit him without doing some major roster reconstruction.

They would have to move Little. That is really the only option that would make it work mid term barring being able to move Kulikov along with Myers and Perrault.
I just don't see it happening with Stastny nor do I really want it to truth be told.
That or the Jets do something stupid and move out Ehlers (Don't see that happening at all)
Myers and Perreault
I said Myers and Perreault don't count.
Both have to be moved, even without signing Stastny. One this year, one next - just to stay cap compliant. If not them, then someone else. Still has to be about 10 mil moved. We could trade Wheeler and Lowry but I think Myers and Perreault are more likely. We have to let Mason's and Kulikov's contracts expire too, when the time comes.
The cap crunch is upon us. We have no room to acquire any player not on a sub 1 mil contract. Or, any contract we acquire has to be accompanied by an equal amount of cap moving out.
Yup, there are just too many "ifs" that would need to be accomplished and just too many moving parts to think we can keep Stastny. The tone by Chevy and the org is pretty much alluding to the fact that they don't think they can keep him. Every interview is "Yes we would love to keep him but it will be tough" To me they are already putting the message out there that he will likely not be back.
Edit: The fact that Maurice is also openly talking about using Roslovic as a C would also substantiate the message that the org likely doesn't believe they will be able to retain him.
