Jones ceiling is lower than Marners although he hit or hitting it sooner. Marner has more potential. The only reason it would ever be considered is the leafs have so many offensive weapons already. As a pens fan I consider marner better than jake Guentzel but I still wouldn't trade jake for jones straight up. Jones is a great stud D man dont get me wrong but in the long run marner more valuable. Will jones even finish top 5 in Norris voting this year?
Jones isnt going to reduce that total a whole lot and losing a quality forward reduces your goal for total..your logic is what ? Finding a balance is key. Jones for nylnader plus is fair
Its really not and if a trade like that was fair you dont think it would have been done by now? Also if you dont think having a defenseman you can send out in all situations for 25 minutes a night has much of a reduction in goals against then I dont know what to tell you bud. Defense is kind of supposed to be their main job
Mathews and a 3rd for Dubinsky is closer then what you're proposing
Because hockey will never be more popular in ohio the OSU football. Our attendance doesnt rise until after the season is over every year. We have one of the roudiest crowds in hockey as well. And Trading Jones for what would amount to... 25? Extra points osnt worth it. The crazy thing is jones is having a down year at his numbers.
So is Marner not worth Werenski because Marner as a forward has less goals?
dont acknowledge the troll let them where themselves out by not responding to them
The team lost Panarin and that led to a couple hundred less people in the seats, nothing crazy. Columbus is a smaller market than a place like Toronto, what sells tickets is winning
New rule: If you bring up Johansen in a Jones trade proposal thread, you automatically lose.
Nonexistent scenarios don't need to be accounted for. He'd never be offered.
jones is good no doubt. Number one D man on jackets. Is he better than Morgan in Toronto? Debatable. Dubas would not trade marner for Jones straight up. Marner younger more ceiling will score 100 plus points at some point. All star. Best yet to come. Jones best is here and it's good but not marner potential good. Again as a penguins fan I would NOT trade jones for jake Guentzel. Letang plays same mins in all situations as a number one d man and we still won cup without him .
Oh, you're a Pens fan. I was kind of wondering what was going on.
I have nothing against the jackets at all. I actually like torts. Has nothing to do with the pens at all. Jones is 25 not getting younger getting outscored. Like Tyson barrie has as many points. Klefbom has more blocked shots !!! ...there are 30 d men withore points.. he is only a plus 4. Point is leafs not trading a 100 point winger who is younger and more potential. Leafs fans argue Morgan is better and they may be rightOh, you're a Pens fan. I was kind of wondering what was going on.
See, there's two kinds of Pens fans out there when it comes to the Jackets - those who do the "yeah, they've got decent folks; they're not US, but they're still competitive", and then there's folks like this who act like Battle of Alberta types with rabies.
