93% of the contract is signing bonus money....not sure what that means, exactly...

No buyout. 

Paid even if there's a lockout...

I would think Laine goes for a bridge deal now that he's having a down season

Or he signs longer term with a bit of a discount.

I'm leaning toward bridge deal. They'll give him a chance to prove that this year was a one-off....he's not worthy of the big deal yet, and I don't think you want to deal him just yet. Bridge makes sense...

Why bridge the 20 year old who has over 100 career goals. Sign him long term if you can instead of him putting up 50 plus next year and the year after. Trade? Lol only idiots want a 20 yr old traded...

His down year.. Still on pace for 40 goals. 

Id go 7 x 8. Hes a winger. Not a center. But goal scorers get paid. 

and what if his 18/19 season becomes the normal?

Why? Does he play for Edmonton? So 40 goals becomes the norm? He gets paid. 

Big time rumor... Seen it several places...

Don't like tossing in Stanley. 

I'd toss in Stanley for a cup...  

Its a gamble though - Ehlers-Duchene-Laine will either be a scoring machine or our fourth line by the second round...

I don't know..... That seems like too much for a rental.  And Duchene has been known to disappear, even though he's having a good season so far.

What did we give up last year?  A 1st, 4th and Foley?

Hard to turn down.  Petan is someone that wont make this team.  Who knows about Stanley but it doesnt look great.  And a first...with the Jets near top in the league.  Thats almost not enough for a bonafide superstar that makes your team a lot better.  But he's a rental.

Why do you say that?  I haven't seen much about him and I've only been to one Moose game this year, but he looked good and most of the info I've read has been positive.

Yeah Ill defer to those that watch him.  He seemed to develop slower than expected initially but I was happy with him over the last season.  Probably unfair of me.  He's probably the toughest part to part with being a D man but for the return..., I'd do it.

That's what I was thinking.  I've always liked Petan, but he's just not going to crack our lineup, on a consistent basis, and a 1st round pick is the going rate, for top end rentals.  I just feel like Stanley might make something of himself...  He's only 20 years old.

We'd essentially be giving Ottawa 2 1st rounders and a 2nd, for Duchene.  That's a high price.

Petan being thrown in sounds like fan trade from our side.

No. Its legit. Ottawa wants a roster player. Petan is that guy. Petan will be included in any trade the Jets make.. If they make 1 hes involved.. If they make 2 and hes not involved in the first he WILL be in the 2nd. 

Petan is a decent player when he plays top 6 minutes but our top 9 is stacked.. Id argue our 4th is also. 

 

Laine Scheif Wheeler

Connor Duchene Ehlers

Perreault Little Roslo

Copp Lowry Tanev. Lemieux Appleton up top. 

 

That is deadly. 

 

As for Logan Stanley.. Sami Niku.. Dylan Samberg Jonny Kocacevic Chisholm and the other D they drafted have all shown more at a younger age. 

Stanley was a boom or bust pick for the Jets... Hes been passed on the organizational talent chart tho. So... 

 

Petan Joe Morrow 1st for Duchene.. You do it... Stanley Morrow.. Same thing, both 3rd pair D man

Nashville acquire Boyle and McLeod...  'decent' depth signings I guess... but Nashville isn't a 'better' team today

They'll probably put up a banner for it though.

I would of liked Boyle here for our playoff( hopefully!) run...would of allowed us to move up Copp to the third and mix Perreault into our top 2 as needed...but whatever. Not sold on Duchene but trust Chevy, if he thinks its worth it..so be it.

Copps near the top of my Don't be surprised if Traded list.

You really pay zero attention dont you. Copp isnt being traded.. No current member of the active roster will be.. In what world do you give up rfa young guys who are defensive gurus for a ******* rental. Pay attention more.. Copp is one of the young leaders. 

Best bobblehead night in the history of bobbleheads....
