October 4, 20177 yr Author comment_295911 But... I thought nobody wanted to be here... Weird. Chevy just locking up core pieces left right and center
October 4, 20177 yr comment_295920 http://www.tsn.ca/jets-ink-ehlers-to-seven-year-42m-extension-1.875209 This is amazing!!!
October 4, 20177 yr comment_295923 Great deal! 64 points as a 21 year old and now we've got him locked up through most of his prime.
October 4, 20177 yr comment_295930 Great extension signing for this team, for a guy who doesn't do anything Chevy goes quietly about his business.
October 4, 20177 yr comment_295941 I've felt that Scheif's deal is almost a gravitational pull on everyone else in such a way that it sets a standard for the Jets. Laine surely to get more but Scheif's deal and now Ehlers will be a "pull" on that contract too. The core of young guys who clearly want to be here will be inclined to take "fair" deals to play together, stay together and, hopefully, win together.
October 4, 20177 yr comment_295942 I dunno 6 million a year for a guy who has one 60 point season isn't the massive steal some people make it seem. He is a winger too let's not forget. It's a good deal but it is incumbent on Ehlers to progress and make it a steal.

Even if 65 points is his MAX each year, it's a fair deal. Its fair to say that Ehlers is improving and can definitely be expected to be a 75 point guy. I thought the best case scenario for Ehlers would be the Filip Forsberg contract (58 point guy) for 6x6. Ehlers contract is even better. This is an absolute steal of a contract and there's no way around it Edited October 4, 20177 yr by Judd

With Laine and Ehlers being good buddies and Ehlers now signed long term, that will hopefully be extra incentive for Laine. Trouba? Yeah, I have my doubts too, but hopefully we're putting together a team that he wants to be a part of.
October 4, 20177 yr comment_295968 Sara Orlesky ✔ @saraorlesky Patrik Laine said he has already told Nikolaj Ehlers that with the new contract Ehlers can pay for their room service bills from now on.

Thanks, Captain Obvious. That's pretty much how it goes with every young player signing his first non-entry level contract. You're banking on him building off the success he has already had, and hope for a solid ROI. Pretty sure everyone here knows he's a winger, BTW.
October 4, 20177 yr comment_295986 I want to know just how many points a Schief/Ehlers/Laine line would get 5 on 5. Will we get to see that happen this year?? I makes me think back to the Hull/Nilsson/Hedberg days.
