Posted May 8, 20169 yr comment_195348 If Myers has an NMC and we have to protect him in an expansion draft, I would trade him for the 4th overall and pick PLD. If Deadmonton wanted more, I wouldn't offer much more than Postma. I might offer Glover or Poolman. PLD would look great in this lineup in 2-3 years.
May 8, 20169 yr comment_195350 What if PLD goes third and we could get Pujawhatshisname too? That might be worth doing. I just don't have the same Myers hate you do.
May 8, 20169 yr Author comment_195354 It isn't a hate it is an abundance of quality right hand shooting defenseman and if he has no movement claws he needs to be moved before it kicks in it is also a chance of getting a quality number one Center
May 8, 20169 yr comment_195356 Myers plus one of Burmi Stafford Dano Armia and I'd take PLD easily. No questions asked.

Like I've said before, now that my man Buff has been secured, I'm hoping on the Myers train. No way we trade him for a 4th pick, we secure him, he's part of our core, he's a special player with a unique skill set that's still evolving.
May 8, 20169 yr comment_195359 The Hamonic issue needs to be settled first. Whats the point of going for 4th if you make a trade for him?
May 8, 20169 yr comment_195363 Hamonic won't be a Jet unless enstrom or Myers goes the other way. Bottom line really. Would have happened already.
May 8, 20169 yr comment_195365 I can see Myers going but not Toby and even then it would be Myers + someone else + someone else/pick.
May 8, 20169 yr comment_195366 Myers is young and cheap, we'd be stupid to trade him. Package Enstrom, Dano and Burmistrov...and our 5th rounder. Who cares if it's a LHD or RHD...defensemen do play their off wing not the first time.

May 8, 20169 yr comment_195383 If I'm the Oilers, I would rather trade for Hamonic too... I could see Myers and Stafford getting 4th overall... but not sure if its worth it - would rather see Chevy trade up into the mid-1st round for Sergachev or Bean Way rather see Myers et al traded for Hamonic straight up. NYI is stocked with prospects... Stafford would be a nice fit for a year or two.

May 8, 20169 yr comment_195414 I don't get the attraction of the 4th pick. We've already got a stud coming our way at 2 - do we need another young stud FW to fight for ice time down the road? A more pressing need is Hamonic or a better RH shot D than we've currently got. 22 overall could be in play, same with Dano/Burmi/Petan/Armia in no particular order. We've got the assets, it's up to Chevy to decide if we make the big push this season or next.

People want to get dman jakob chychrun and the belief is that EDM will go after him. I'm not so sure that chychrun goes any higher then 7th at this point. Edited May 9, 20169 yr by FrostyWinnipeg

May 9, 20169 yr comment_195436 And I'd we traded to 4. We wouldn't be taking a d man either. It would be for PLD. Or we could then trade 4 to a team like Montreal for 9 and their 2nd or Calgary 6th and their 2nd or really... a team between 6 and 9 for the first and 2nd and take a d man between 6 and 9. If we trade for 4th and don't trade down with the 4th... it's for PLD or Brown or Jost even. 4 is to high to take a d man this year. Chychrun Sergachev Juolevi Bean McAvoy Fabbro.... not much of a difference between them at all. Bean could be the best of the bunch and be picked last. No D man has really distinguished himself as a can't miss prospect in this draft. Right now im guessing Arizona or Buffalo might take a d man with their pick but honestly...I'm not convinced at this moment that any D go in the top 10. Big run on forwards in the top 10 11 12 15 even I'm guessing. Probably be a good d man for the Jets at 22 Edited May 9, 20169 yr by Goalie
May 9, 20169 yr comment_195443 I think Edmonton trades 4 because taking a D-man there would be over-valuing a D player. So they trade down to get something now and still get a good player. I dont think the Jets make any moves but if they do, it will be if someone they really like falls from 8-15 and they feel they can leverage #22 and something else to move up and grab someone they really value. On the other hand, they have lots of mid-6/bottom-6 depth and someone is going to have to be moved eventually... But I think they'd just as soon open camp with too many guys fighting for spots.

May 23, 20169 yr Author comment_197104 The Jets are going to have to replace Little in a couple of years and PLD would look good in a Jets uni.
May 23, 20169 yr comment_197134 I might be more interested in trading up from 22 if a Guy like Keller falls, Kid has a ton of talent, natural Center unlike PLD who is a natural wing, who hasn't really played much center at all.. Or Heck, It's likely a guy like Rubstov could be there at 22, I'm not sure i like the idea of trading myers plus armia type for pick 4 only to take another forward prospect when we are stacked with them. If the idea was to trade myers plus armia type for 4 and then to trade 4 to montreal/arizona for their 1st and 2nd rounders, sure.. I'd be all for that but cuz then we could take the LHD that we kind of sort of in a way need, but... to trade Myers plus armia for pick 4 only to take another forward? Not sure it makes much sense. Rubstov,Kunin could/should be available at 22. Personally i think Myers plus Armia type cuz that's what it would take to get 4, I think reality is that if we were looking to move Myers, have my doubts right now but if we were, I'd think a Myers for LHD of similar type of pedigree would make more sense. Not sure how i feel about trading a top 4 D man in myers for pick 4 when we really don't have the need for any forward prospects at the moment. Laine is a given at 2, No doubt about it now, we are taking him, it's pretty much a done deal but.... i'm not sure if trading myers ++ for pick 4 makes much sense actually. Honestly i'd probably rather look at moving Enstrom at this time. Not sure what he'd get you but... maybe a mid to late first.. and then take the BPA with that pick. Buff. Trouba. Myers. Morrissey next season isn't awful top 4. Edited May 23, 20169 yr by Goalie
