While Ehlers is 9th on the Jets in 5v5 ice time per game, he is also 4th on the team in ice time per game in all situations.
Play with the Capitals
He's gonna go somewhere that he can play top 6 minutes. Not to be behind the 3rd line…
I'm like Meh, if he signs fine, if he ops for green pastures fine, he has a decent playoffs, but he's not going to tear up the league but he speed does often given his line a easy entry into the O zone. I think he could get 2nd line minutes consistently. Meh
Manitoba Miracle will bring him back for more, years to come.
Trade now because jets need personal changes and tweaking. Trade while he’s young as his time is almost up and get something good back. Jets NEED to address size down the middle. Too many finesse players not enough grit and guys that can win battles in the boards.
