and Apples is a Red Wing

Surprised he got a contract. 2.9 is pretty crazy for his production. 
 

LeBron Ehlers taking his time here. Rumors are it’s down to Carolina Colorado (puke) Washington and Tampa. 

also talk that he’s looking for guaranteed top line minutes. 

he will not be a Jet again.

Appleton getting $2.9M is insane.  Thrilled it’s somewhere else.

Copp was his agent

What's crazier is that he was looking for way more.

Wow.  Him being overvalued here must have made him delusional.

Nyquist huh? I hope he's good I don't want to give him a Nyquil nickname

Did we just become the oldest team by avg now? 

Sounds like Carolina the destination for Ehlers... Talking head seem to think this will set off a chain reaction of trades.

Completely biased and unapologetic, being a Jet for life making gobs and gobs of money playing a game you love but maybe not making as much gobs and gobs and gobs of money elsewhere, being admired, remembered and enshrined forever in Jet history is a pretty sweet deal not taken. Enjoy the extra millions my friend.

6 years at $8.5M.

8.5 to prob be on the 2nd line again. Ehlers with BrindAmour as coach is gonna be interesting. Plays the exact opposite style Rod coaches.

It's not even extra dollars.  Could have signed for something like 8 x $7.5m, which is more total $$ and been a Jet for life.  Likely looking for a change but the grass isn't always greener.  

Apparently he’s gonna do the Marner message to the fans thing. Spare it really tho. Didn’t wanna be here so he can go **** himself. 

Thanks for the great memories Nikolaj, all the best in your future efforts, except against the Jets 😁.

I thought expressing your feelings was healthy...thanks Nik for all ya done, but I think it's good for you to move on.  Carolina is a highly skilled team and you'll fit in well there.

That hurts cause you have to think the Jets were same amount over 7yrs.

Why would they pay a 60 point player the same as a 90 point player? Do people pay attention? He wanted out. Nothing was keeping him unless you guaranteed him top line minutes and paid him as much as our actual stars. There’s so much bs today like ppl saying he was the best player In the playoffs. Yeah 3 even strength points in 8 games is just rock star. Jesus. Ppl need to stop pretending Ehlers makes a difference for us or for Carolina. He doesn’t. We have 10 seasons of him underperforming when it matters most. Wish him well but stop pretending he’s worth the same price as Scheifele or Helle. Ppl go back to the tying goal against St. Louis and are like without Ehlers, it doesn’t happen. Really ? Cuz what happened 30 seconds prior? Or 15 seconds prior. He flubbed the puck out the zone then flubbed a one timer. 3 even strength points. Also took a dumb penalty. But ya 3 even strength points. If you paid attention it doesn’t hurt at all cuz all the rumors said he wasn’t coming back. He was never coming back. Jets knew it a week ago even. He wanted anonymity and top line minutes.
