Goalie

Connor is a LW. For some odd reason some sites have him listed as C but he's not .. he's a natural Left shooting LW. Connor Compher Motte LW C RW Morrissey is already better than Stu. Stu should probably be in the AHL and even then I think he struggles because he just lacks speed to keep up. Stuart has regressed lots and quite rapidly. Intangibles don't mean much when you struggle that bad. Lots of people thought Ladd was regressing also and perhaps he has but Stu, it's a really rapid decline. He's wasting a spot basically and he shouldn't be on a NHL team.

Then why like TUP said is malkin on the 3rd line. Why didn't kane and panarin play with Toews in Chicago. Bring it to the home team... why the hell did thorburn play with Ehlers half the year.

Laine or Puljujarvi is a win. You can't go wrong with either.

The possible expansion draft next June

Moose maybe to fine tune his O game.

Who knows tho. Maybe we take Puljujarvi lol.

Why is Ehlers Scheif Wheeler a better line combo over Connor Scheif Wheeler or Petan Scheif Wheeler Scheif and Wheeler are the dominant players. It don't matter who you put with them it seems. I think it make sense to put guys in positions they like. Connor is a legit LW. Prefers LW. He's a fit. Ehlers is a left shooter but prefers to play the right side. RW with Little is a good spot. Laine. If we take him is a right shooter who likes the lw spot. It makes lots of sense to have Laine little ehlers and Connor Scheif Wheeler

Maybe the Jets make a trade for Hamonic and then trade Myers or Enstrom for a pick. Then they protect Buff Trouba Hamonic. Myers plus Burmi to Edmonton for pick 4 would be nice. Take PLD. Hard to say but Edmonton looking to move that pick for RHD and I'm not sure that they would get a better one than myers

That's exactly it. It's to distribute the scoring among the lines. Connor is a goal scorer, putting him with Lowry is ridiculous and hurts his development, LOWRY couldn't keep up with Connor, Connor actually might be a faster skater than Ehlers. So you put him with Scheif and Wheeler since Connor is a natural LW Ehlers likes to play the right side, You take advantage of that and put him on the right side of Little, Laine likes to play left side, so you put him on Littles Left. It's not about which player is better or any of this, it's about having 2 strong lines who could come out there and dominate... It wasn't Ehlers and I liked the kid but you can put anyone with Scheif and Wheeler and they will dominate, Petan played with them and they dominated. The only time they didn't look good was when Stafford played with them. It's about distributing the scoring, it's about not putting all your eggs in one basket, It's about... Putting a goal scorer with speed to burn with 2 guys who got speed to burn. It's about using your talent to the best of their abilities.. Connor -Scheif - Wheeler would be legit Laine, Little, Ehlers would be legit too. Your bottom 6 becomes better because you put Perreault down there on the third line... Perreault - Petan - Armia. Lowry is on the 4th line cuz he's a big kid who really, besides being big and hitting, he doesn't bring much else, he doesn't score goals.. he doesn't set them up... Ideal 4th line that can go out there bang and grind and maybe pop a few... Lemieux,Lowry,Dano. Connor with Lowry? C'mon lol, that's just not even funny, Lowry is not the quickest guy in the world, Connor might be the quickest JET now. Why sandbag him with Lowry when you can let him excel with Scheif and Wheeler.

Oh yeah? You wanna play stafford on our top line for 90 percent of the season then? Cuz reality is Stempniak doesn't get that offer from any other team in the league. Guess what? When he moved to Boston, he sucked and Boston missed the playoffs. Stafford might get a 2nd. But not much more than that.

Connor - Scheif - Wheeler - 1 rookie Laine - Little - Ehlers - 1 rookie. Why is that so hard to understand? You play your best 6 in the top 6 and those are your best 6. We are a team building for the future, If Maurice doesn't play these guys in the top 6, Maurice won't be here in the future. Bottom Line really.

NHL. COM is generally wrong with these things actually. It's 22. Confirmed.

No. Ehlers shoots left. Laine shoots right. Ehlers off wing is the right side. Perreault - Scheif - Ehlers or no memory of that at all? Ehlers is a left handed shooting guy who prefers playing the RW Laine is a right handed shooter who prefers the Left side. Wheres Stafford? He doesn't fit the team anymore so he's traded or for all i care put on waivers and playing on the moose.

Lowry Better show up to camp in better shape than he was this past year then cuz I don't think, despite what Maurice says that he's a lock.

Let's do this... Not an expert at all, Just take your best Guess for the top 10... base it on teams needs and all that... 1. Leafs - C Auston Matthews 2. Jets - RW who prefers LW - Patrik Laine 3. CBJ - RW Jesse Puljujarvi 4. EDM (Traded) and that team takes C Pierre Luc Dubois 5. Vancouver - C and Local Boy Tyson Jost 6. Calgary - LW Matthew Tkachuk 7. Arizona - D man Olli Juolevi 8. Buffalo - W Alex Nylander 9. Montreal - C Logan Brown 10. Colorado - D Michail Sergachev Chychrun Falls to 12 and is the last of the big 3 d men picked. Jets consider trading up for him but sit at 22 and take D Kale Clague from Brandon. Some team will reach for a guy like D Logan Stanley due to his size.

Delete. New Topic instead

Trades will happen. Some guys will be Moose bound. Still think Connor - Scheif - Wheeler - Don't care what Maurice said, that's before they got the 2nd overall pick Laine - Little - Ehlers. - That is your top 6... You gotta keep Scheif and Wheeler together and I really liked Little with Ehlers (who likes to play his off side, much like Laine) Armia? He's not guaranteed to make it, I know you like him but.. he's not guaranteed Perreault - Petan - Armia? That's a nice third line Lemieux - Lowry- Dano - That's a nice 4th line. Or due to PK and that sorts... Tanev instead of Lemieux and Lemieux spends a year with the Moose. Wheres Copp? AHL... Wheres Burmi? who cares. Wheres Stafford? who cares. Where are the others? In the Pressbox or on the Moose or who cares. All i know is our top 6 is gonna be crazy. Our Bottom 6 should be better and we should see some trades... Then again, Jets could say you know what let's tank... and Laine and Connor could play for the Moose (both are eligible)

Ovechkin - not a center Kane - not a center Scheif little Lowry petan copp Burmi roslovic Scheif and Little are a very good 1 2. Jets top 6 will be phenomenal Which means the bottom 6 should be better due to competition

Nah. Matthews Laine Puljujarvi are the consensus and will be on nhl teams next year. The others need a year or 2 or 3.

There is no guarantee that Matthews turns out better than Laine or Puljujarvi. Laine and Puljujarvi are actually younger and played in a tougher league against men also. Finnish league is comparable to the AHL. The Swiss league isn't Laine or Puljujarvi are franchise players also just like Matthews who has a late birthday so he's actually older. Laine just turned18 recently

I don't think you can go wrong with either of Laine or Puljujarvi

Laine man. Dude. Man. Haha. Like spicoli from fast times at Ridgemont high. The Finnish Rockstar

Doubt it. They will trade the pick and the gm said he's already received some offers for it.

Connor Scheif Wheeler - speed to burn. Laine little ehlers. - Laine likes playing his off wing. Ehlers does also. Little and Ehlers looked good when they played together Bottom 6 CRAP SHOOT 1 rookie on each line.

I'd consider petan or Lowry. Fact is both are probably bottom 6 easily replaceable players. I'd consider it
