Tucker Poolman Re-Signs with the Jets

 

[Rabid Ranger]

Goodbye Trouba......

 

[GoJetsGo55]

Yeahhhhh buddy!!!!!!

Poolman is going to get more responsibilities this year. Very excited to see what he can do. If we lose Trouba, it could be his spot to slate into. To start the year though....my guess is that he's our #7.


Oh hey and Marko Dano...neat.

 

[Flyerfan52]

That leaves 0 arbitration cases left & Morrissey the only RFA of note left to re-sign.
I figure Morrissey comes in @ 4.5-5 x 5 so once that is done Chevy deserves a week off. Then he can start following up on the more serious trade proposals for Trouba. Anything decent he can follow up. The 1s that are obtuse (like some on the various threads about Trouba here) just go in the spam file.

Let's lock up Morrisey for 8 years please...

At least Jets aren't giving replacement level / worse players 3mil+ AAV contracts.

 

[belair]

Poolman contract is interesting. I wonder why he'd agree to that term.

Seems like there is competition for ice there. Smart to take a contract that gets his foot wedged firmly in the door. Might have been anyway. But that solidifies things for him.

Still a bad move. Players like Lowry, Armia, and Dano are dime a dozen bottom sixers. Not worth moving down so far to keep, and who knows if Vegas would've even picked any of them for sure.

What a misguided post. Lowry is so far ahead of Dano it isn’t funny.

 

[Hunter368]

I’m puzzled by Poolman signing so cheap for so long......that’s a great deal for the Jets.

 

[TMLeafer]

Chevy has been pretty busy in the last week or so.

....he's hardly had a dayoff.

 

[Skinnyjimmy08]

I woulda assumed a 1 year deal for Poolman.. Very odd.. Ahh well ive learned not to question Cheveldayoffs decisions

 

[Cleatus]

What a misguided post. Lowry is so far ahead of Dano it isn’t funny.

He's still a third liner. A good one, yes, but people here get way too attached to these kind of players.

And when it came to me calling out the Jets for making a bad move at that expansion draft, a lot of Jets fans brought up Dano's P/60, and how much apparent potential he had to justify the move down. Was kinda crazy.

 

[larmex99]

The most homerific fans had to justify moving down 10 spots in the expansion draft somehow.

He wasn’t the player we wanted to protect. Obviously.

He's done his work for the season now lol.

I would call Lowry a 2c. He is a possession monster.

He's gonna have to improve a ton on offense to be considered close to a 2C. I don't see it ever happening, pretty sure he is what he is at this point, which is a nice and reliable 3C. Always good to have, but I wouldn't have been that upset to see him go to Vegas.

 

[Eb]

Are people joking about this making a Trouba trade imminent?

I legit don’t know how likely it is.

His even strength offense is pretty good. And his possession is next-level.

Well that makes one of you, because nobody else who has any clue about Lowry would be ok with him going to Vegas. Lowry is not a player you replace easily.

Think of Couturier before he was moved to the top line & had his offensive reins set free. Before that he was tasked with shutting down the Crosby, Malkins & Ovechkins of the league.
Jordan Staal's best years in Pitts as a 3C doing that kind of job.

Shutdown center is a job that stats watchers don't understand for some reason. Sacrificing your own points to prevent GA isn't sexy.
It'd be the same reason defensemen are judged by scoring while the very defination means defending. The media think like those fans so 1 takes their cue from the other.

Strangely there's the Selke for best defensive forward but the Norris seems to be for most offensive defenseman. There should be 1 for best defensive D.

I'm really flattered that you think so highly of a Jets player and all, but Lowry is no Couturier, and if a player like him is playing an offensive role on your team, you're probably cheering for the Habs.

He shuts down the opposing teams top line regularly. That is extremely valuable to allow for better matchups for the top 6. He's not your run-of-the-mill 3rd liner.
