November 30, 20186 yr comment_371399 I say the Jets move on from Myers sooner rather than later. There's no way we can re-sign him in the offseason even if he took a significant discount. Not if we want to keep Laine, Connor, Copp, Tanev, and try to keep Trouba (lol we'll see I guess). Make a trade with Myers as the centerpiece while he still has value and teams look past his iffy defensive zone play. Hopefully get back a solid Dman or two. Throw in Chiarot too. Got really sick of seeing him just stand there while a Blackhawk player got multiple whacks at the puck in front of Helle before scoring. To be fair he wasn't alone in that but if you're a big physical Dman and you can't even clear the front of the net there isn't much point to you being out there.

But hindsight is 20/20. Jets will have to upgrade their D. Im not sure how. If Myers is perceived as having value, perhaps you can move him out for a younger player. Is there a well touted young D that is looming RFA and might not re-sign with their team? That player might be a target. Or if Trouba is gone, and you can get TWO d in return, do it. But it seems unlikely (why would a team who values Trouba trade good D). Niku has to get up to speed fast. And Kulikov being long term injured hasnt helped matters. If this was still the summer, a solid free agent D would be top of the list. I don't think there is anyway he would consider coming back to the Jets though, I think he wasn't happy being a healthy scratch whether it was warranted or not. And I know you were being tongue in cheek. Edited November 30, 20186 yr by HardCoreBlue
