I could see the Jets entertaining offers for Ehlers, and I wouldn't be upset at all depending upon the return. I like Ehlers, but I don't like his 21 career playoffs games with ZERO goals. Sure it's only been 2 seasons of playoff hockey, but is he going to be a career playoff ghost?
As Boston and St.Louis have shown this season, you need to build your team for the playoffs, which is a totally different game than the regular season...

Sounds like everyone is getting a bit antsy and swinging for the fences here.
At this point in time, I’m only anticipating three trades/“moves” from the Jets this offseason:
As such, I only anticipate two or three current Jets not being with the team next year: Trouba and Perreault/Kulikov, and maybe a “surprise” one if all rumours are to be believed. I doubt Chevy is willing to throw in more names than that unless heavily pushed for in a deal he can’t refuse.
- A resolution to the Trouba saga
- A cap relief move (likely either moving Perreault or Kulikov)
- A move to address locker room issues for the long term
Names are always flying around this time of year just because GMs are doing their due diligence and asking. I don’t think there’s anything more to it than that.

Yeah Connor still has a ways to go before he's close to as good as Ehlers.
@Howard Chuck
Ehlers is another player (like Laine) that I can see going to another team where they take full advantage of his extreme talent, and he becomes a very highly coveted player. We have a few players who are not being used to their full potential. Who in the league has speed and zone entries like Ehlers? Very few players.
I still think an elite center between Ehlers and Laine would be one of the best lines in the league.
I always imagined Chevy with a nicer boat.
Apparently there's a 2 day grace period after the cup is awarded so the winners can get drunk and swim in the Bellagio fountains in Vegas.Finally the season will be over so we can get some news.
Being given the inside scoop on the haul he has planned for Trouba so that they are prepared for some OT work over the weekendMods on vacation at Chevy’s cottage.

I get sick to death of seeing this. Small sample size .. Small sample size .. Small sample size! If Ehlers wasn't our best player this PO he was damn close to it. He played very well. His shots didn't go in. His teammates didn't finish for him. Last season he at least got A's, but this year? 6 games - Small sample size. Look at his play, not just the box score.
I think Ehlers looked okayish, and he did sometimes seem to have trouble taking over games like he can vs the upped physicality. My concern level is super low however. Like you say sample size but guy also strikes me as pretty driven, and he added quite a bit of physicality and decent defensive play in the regular season this year compared to previous years. I think he has another step forward coming and he'll have a good playoffs next year.
Funny because my take on the Ehlers vs KC in the playoffs was that I thought that KC gave up opportunities to get the puck in favor of avoiding hits. Ehlers will more often take the punishment.
I thought KC was pretty timid when the going got rough.
Send Wheeler to the Islanders to hang out with Ladd.
Even better, reunite LLW.
