I think a deal is done with Florida
Jets lost their 2nd in Schenn trade but when woke up I seen the Jets do interview with Ben Macbeath who's ranked 39 high 2nd. Why would you interview a guy when you can't draft them? The Florida 2nd is #40.
Macbeath said all the right things wants to be a jet he had 7g44a with Hitmen.
I'd like see us trade 2027 2nd+Lambert package get Barrett Hayton and have a roster like this.
Connor Scheifele Villardi
Perfetti Hayton Samoskevich
Iafallo Lowry Barron
Rosen Zhilkin Koepke
Ford Yager Chibrikov
Morrissey Pionk
Samberg Salmonsson
Soucy Demelo
Fluery Brown
Brossoit and maybe a team like Edmonton/Vegas pay you sweetner take Hill/Jarry or just run a tandem with Montembeault/Skinner types. No more 60+ game goalie.
Hayton is 25 RFA
Perfetti 24 RFA
Samoskevich 23 RFA no matter what way you look at it those will be upgrade over Toews/Nyquist.
Then you draft 8th Verheoff/Rudolph a dman.
9th Lawrence
And 40th Macbeath go back to 2010s when we had 1st 2.0 core. Let guys earn roster spots not block them. It worked from 2011-2018 since then it's been bad.
In future I agree other guys will eventually leave but that's when you get value for them. And replace with the youth comming up.
Jets going off the board with Marcel Commeault no problem. Hillier going off the board….terrifying.
I must say tho, i love the intro and outro music.
