Also very fun that I recorded an episode last night and mentioned the Jets had yet to hire assistants, only to have them announce them today haha.

Laine is shit don’t trade anyone for him.

It'd be a fun thought. I doubt it'll ever happen, but for sentimental reasons, I'd really enjoy it.

One can only hope!

Delia was just for extreme emergencies. He's not great at the NHL level, sadly. Would prefer to avoid DeSmith for personal reasons but he is technically an option.

While I do see the Heinola perspective a bit differently, I am absolutely going to use Tiny Heiny from now on. That's a hilarious nickname.

Completely agree Grant! Still not convinced Dillon is the one to let go when Pionk and Schmidt are the biggest kinks in the chain. I vote get rid of the shitty players first. I’m not sure why that isn’t the plan always.

I think we might have to try Cole or valardy at 2 C ,we have other options like Lambert or neimeskov.We have options,we need to get some draft picks for right D .use free agency to our advantage,short term even just a year with over pay if perfect fit.we need demello with Josh in a couple years salamonson could be ready and the draft picks we trade Kyle Conner, maybe ehlers if we don't trade Kyle

@@joshuamacnabb2725 The problem is that their cap hits are a bit hard to move. I don't mind the Jets looking at buyouts at all, but I bet they really like Pionk.

@@joshuamacnabb2725 agree 100 % with you Josh. Get rid of Schmidt and Pionk first, as they are expensive, and on the small side. Keep Dillon.

Maybe, he's not a super tough player, generally speaking. More a Tuch-lite, which I wouldn't mind for a depth add.

The thing with Capo is that he's always been a good AHLer. He just doesn't have the footspeed to move up to the higher league. Ville has shown well in flashes with the big club, but remains to be seen what his ankle is like this coming season.

@@LockedOnJetsNHL I disagree. Ville hasn’t shown well in flashes with the big club or he’d still be up. On top of that he couldn’t out play Capo in the AHL what makes you think he’s magically gonna step it up when the competition gets tougher and better than he did in lesser competition. If Capo isn’t good enough for the NHL after outplaying everybody in the AHL then the people he out played aren’t good enough either. IMO

@@joshuamacnabb2725 Ville had made the team this past season before he broke his ankle. Capo didn't. So obviously, what Ville was showing far outshined what Capo was showing.

He's very bad and will want a pretty hefty contract/role. I've watched him for long enough to know his best days are well behind him, unfortunately. There was a time he was so, so fun, but these days? Tough to watch. :(

​@@LockedOnJetsNHL... And as much as I hate to say it like this, kuzy is one nose powder away from being a complete waste of money

Even an upgraded use of data would be helpful for the team. Doesn't have to be full moneyball, but a more data focused approach would help.

To hell with what Scheifele wants. It's about the team. And he may like playing with Connor, but the numbers showed they were terrible 5-on-5 on the ice together.

The only way we get a really good right defense man is to draft in first round, Connor is or best chance.we need to be smart with cap, Schmidt and pionk,ilafelo.use free agents to your advantage, maybe over pay for one year for right defense man.same with one or two forwards.

Yes trade Connor not ehlhers😊

The last thing Ehlers is is halfhearted. He needs a fast line. He never got that, outside of Scheif and Vilardi being able to catch up on the rush

The Jets have had attendance issues effective from the week of 15 March 2020 Central Time, when governments across Canada started declaring states of emergency due to a then-emerging pandemic (the early-2020s Covid one). From the 2018-19 NHL season the Jets have only won ONE playoff series: a 2021 sweep of the Oilers. From the 2021-22 NHL season the Jets have won just TWO playoff games while, just during the 1st round of the 2024 postseason the Leafs won THREE. One can accuse the Leafs of having allocated per-season cap hits of at least US$10 million to 4 forwards although following the 2021 season of an all-Canadian division (better known as the North Division), the Jets have yet to win a playoff series while the Leafs in April 2023 beat the then-defending Stanley Cup finalist Bolts in 6 games. Last May the Leafs changed their GM while the Jets are just 1 of 2 teams who appointed their most-recent GMs before 2019-20 NHL season even began.

Whether Ehlers into preseason play in September stays with the Jets or is traded remains TBD but what doesn't is how incredibly slow their foot speed has been during the last 2 playoff series. 9 straight playoff games having allowed 4 or more goals (1-8 record) show a not-so-good trend although scoring goals in the postseason has, following the Jets' 2021 sweep of the Oilers, also been a problem.

@@wainber1 The Jets are not only way too slow, they are also not big and tough. Look at the 2017 team. You had Big Buff, Meyers, Chariot, Armia, Trouba, Hendricks, Copp, Laine, a younger Wheeler, Stastny etc, along with Lowry etc. Not only were most of those guys big, but they were all pretty tough, and most were smart players. Who do the Jets have left out of that bunch? Just lowry. To win, you need one or the other speed or toughness, and in an ideal world both. The Jets have neither. Don't even talk about Stanley, because he is not tough and has no hockey IQ. Dillon is pretty tough, but he is only one guy and if you believe the rumors he will be traded soon. Lowry is Jets only real tough guy, with maybe the exception of Nino.

@@marksydor3108 This offseason will be an interesting one for the Jets including 10 expiring contracts among members of the actual NHL roster (1 of them Stanley, a pending restricted free agent with arbitration rights should the Jets give him a qualifying offer) and 8 in the minors. Of 18 players under contract to the Jets whose contracts will later this month expire: - 4 (Cole Perfetti, Ville Heinola, Artemi Kniazev and Simon Lundmark) are pending restricted FAs with neither arbitration rights nor 10.2(c) status - 3 (David Gustafsson [forward], Stanley [d-man] and Oskari Salminen [the last a goalie under contract to the Jets]) are pending RFAs with arbitration rights - 12 are pending UFAs, with: -- 2 (Kristian Reichel and Kyle Capobianco) due to each non-goalie skater having played under 80 NHL non-preseason games but having played 3 or more seasons under contract to NHL teams (even if in the AHL, ECHL or a European league), with: --- Reichel having played 15 --- Capobianco, 73 --- the remaining 10 simply due to having turned 27 before this month (27 the minimum age as of 30 June Eastern Time of a given calendar year) Stanley hasn't been a great point producer in regular-season play with the Jets, and their most-recent season was no exception (his having put up 2 [1 goal] over 25 games) but his playoff -1 (1 point, an assist, over 3 games) makes me wonder if he really has what it takes to get to stay with the Jets beyond this month. For this coming season the Jets have slightly over US$13.35 million of cap space and have 3 spots on their roster left to fill to become for the 2024-25 regular season compliant with the NHL minimum 20 players (2 of them goalies). It'll be interesting how the Jets allocate what remaining cap space they have as it's unlikely they'll get to sign any player they do this offseason to a US$750,000 per-season cap hit (the minimum the NHL requires teams to sign players for). As of 2.40 p.m. this Thursday Eastern Time CapFriendly showed: - 60 players under contract with a PSCH of at least US$2, but under US$3, million - 52 under contract for PSCHs of at least US$1, but under US$2, million - over 600 under contract for sub-US$1-million PSCHs - 47 with PSCHs in the US$3-million to US$3,999,999 range Last January Caps' forward Alexei Protas agreed, with that team that'd drafted him, to a 5-seasion US$16.875 million contract. If US$3 million is the MINIMUM per-season cap hit any player the Jets sign goes for in the offseason, they'll have little if any cap space left. Of Canadian NHL teams the Canucks have, approaching 3 p.m. ET on Thursday, the most cap space at almost US$24 million (almost US$800,000 below the team's salary floor). Allocate that cap space properly and those Canucks may very well become a dangerous team in the regular season and postseason. This postseason the: - Canucks played 10 games decided by just 1 goal, going 6-4 in them (1-2 in games decided by 2 or more) - Oilers have so far played 11, going 7-4 (5-2 in other games) - Jets played just 1, which they won 7-6 in regulation (0-4 otherwise) - Leafs played 4, going 3-1 (0-3 otherwise) Games decided by 1 goal in the postseason are quite common, with this postseason the Jets the only Canadian team to have qualified but not have played 2 or more such games. The only 2024 playoff game the Leafs lost that had been decided by 1 goal was in OT (albeit just 114 seconds in). Were there moments, after game 1 of the Avs-Jets 2024 playoff series, that in that series were close? There no doubt were, with: - 2-1 leads the Jets had had in each of games 2 and 3 - a 1-0 Jets' lead in game 4 - 1-goal leads the Jets had taken or ties from the 75-second mark of the 1st period to the 8:01 mark of the 3rd (the 1st of 2 goals the Avs' Mikko Rantanen would in the 3rd period score)

I heard that's when actual alligators used to play hockey...wild times.

If Wheeler retires, one day contract him with Little. Should we 1 day Ladd too?

The Leafs are the team with no playoff runs in 20 years. The Jets playoff success is average for a 32 team league.

@@jimlangdon1947 Yet following the 2017-18 NHL season the Jets and Leafs have each won ONE playoff series, and the Leafs, in their 2024 one took their opponent to 7, not 5, games. Four games of the Leafs-Bruins series were decided by 1 goal, with the Leafs' record in such games 3-1. The Jets by contrast, in their 2024 playoff series, only played 1 game decided by a goal, and that was, even with that game a WIN, was UGLY at 7-6 in regulation over the Avs. TBD will be, between the Jets and Leafs, which team will next win a playoff series although even with every player signed on the Manitoba team to a contract with a sub-US$9-million per-season cap hit, the Jets have had their issues including 9 straight playoff games of 4 or more goals allowed (just 1 win over that time span).

@@wainber1 Here are long term stats for normal performance of NHL teams in a 32 team league: 1) Stanley Cup - every 32 years 2) Finals - every 16 years 3) Conference Final - every 8 years 4) Win a Round - every 4 years 5) Make the playoffs - every 2nd year To be clear in 20 years - the Leafs have the worst NHL playoff team record - with zero playoff runs. 😀 The Jets are still on track for a 12 year old franchise for making it to the Conference Finals within 12 years.

@@jimlangdon1947 The Leafs have their issues but how have the expansion Canadian teams done? The Leafs have 8 straight playoff appearances, the longest streak of that type among Canadian teams. During that time span they've won 1 playoff series while, among other Canadian teams, the: - Oilers have won 7 (3 so far this postseason) - Habs, 4 - Jets and Canucks, 3 each - Flames and Sens, 2 each I don't want to next season discount the possibility more than just, among Canadian teams, the Canucks will see playoff action although I see them as the most likely to win a playoff series, with still too many question marks for the other teams. Will Leon Draisaitl sign a contract to, effective for the 2025-26 season, as soon as next month, continue playing with the Oilers? What if he doesn't? It may be enough for Draisaitl to be a Cup finalist to try going for another contract with the Oilers but considering how the Oilers have, so far in this month's Cup final, only scored once on Sergei Bobrovsky of the Panthers, Drai may decide that this season was for the Oilers, on making it to a Cup final, a mere fluke, and try his luck with a non-Oilers' NHL team.

@@wainber1 The problem for the Leafs is the playoffs not the regular season. The Leafs now have the all time worst playoff record in the History of the NHL. But the Cowboys & Leafs sure are consistent, fun and interesting- in sharing their agony come playoffs. 😀

Winnipeg's biggest issue is footspeed, which will hopefully begin to change over the next few years. They can win regular seasons when they play a huge variety of teams, but a playoff series against a fast, skilled team is a very different story.

@@LockedOnJetsNHL It's no surprise the Jets have gone 9 straight playoff games having allowed 4 or more goals, losing 8 of them. That was even though earlier in April they'd blown the Avs out (7-0). I didn't think the Jets would walk over the Avs in that then-upcoming 1st-round series but that the Avs, bar the 1st game of that series, won each game by 2 or more goals is another indicator of team defence having been well off the mark in that series.

I think sometimes a well-coached team can get steamrolled in the playoffs, because the mid-level talent finally gets exposed.

@@kurtwpg Rick Tocchet throughout the 2023-24 regular season claimed multiple times the Canucks' team of which in January 2023 he'd been appointed head coach had fallen well short of the mark. Yes that team won a 2024 playoff series but still fell short in the 2nd round against the Oilers, particularly in game 6 when the Oilers had beaten those Canucks 5-1. There was diversity of scoring but still: - the Canucks, when having scored 2 or fewer goals/game in that series, went 0-3 (3-1 when they'd scored 3 or more), with those losses having come after game 3 - of Canucks' players who'd participated in that playoff series: -- Elias Lindholm, Brock Boeser, Conor Garland, JT Miller, Nikita Zadorov and Dakota Joshua scored 2 or more goals -- Carson Soucy (ex-Kraken), Elias Pettersson (aka Petey), Nils Hoglander, Filip Hronek and Phil DiGiuseppe scored 1 goal each -- who'd played in at least 3 games, none of Quinn Hughes (despite his having become an elite d-man), Ted Blueger, Pius Suter, Tyler Myers, Ian Cole (ex-Bolts), Ilya Mikheyev (ex-Leafs), Sam Lafferty (ex-Leafs) and Nils Aman scored I would consider the Toronto, Ontario area's yet-to-be-named Professional Women's Hockey League team (PWHL Toronto) as a relatively well-coached team particularly considering said league had only finished the regular-season portion of its schedule, which had begun in January, early last month. That said, an amazing regular season, during which that team would put up a 13-4-0-7 regulation win - extra-time win - extra-time loss - regulation loss record for a respectable 47 points over 24 games (translating to a maximum of 72 points [points % of 65⅝]), lost 3 of 5 playoff games (the only game decided in OT having been a 1-0 loss of game 4), with the relevant best-of-5 series having featured 2 straight shutout wins followed by 2 straight shutout losses followed by a 4-1 loss of the final game. PWHL Toronto's 2024 postseason featured, among any non-goalie skater who'd scored (6 of 20) just 1 (team captain Blayre Turnbull) who'd scored 2 or more goals (2). More Canucks' players against the Oilers scored goals than didn't, with 6 having scored 2 or more goals. Of 19 Winnipeg Jets' players who'd played 2 or more games during the Avs-Jets April playoff series 8 scored, 5 of them (Kyle Connor, Morrissey, Scheifele, Toffoli and Lowry) scored mutiple goals. That said, as impressive as the average # of goals/game (3) was, 7 of the 15 came during the 1st game of that series, with the 5th and last game the only other one to feature 3 or more Jets' goals (6-3 loss). I count, among Jets' forwards who'd played in 3 or more games, Vilardi (4 assists), Ehlers (2 A), Niederreiter (2 A), Monahan (1 A), and Iafallo (1 A) assisted on goals but didn't score any.

I wouldn't be too sure of that. It seems like Arniel is advocating pretty publicly for the youth. I would expect all of them to play a big role next year.

The Jets don't have the future cap space to make trading for and signing him worth it. Ehlers, Vilardi and Samberg expire 2025, KC in 2026. We need cheap top 9 players for the next several seasons, like an ELC Lambert, Chibrikov and McGroarty

Yet. 1 more bad playoff performance and a shakeup would be possible.

@@fernandomora6431 One would think that after nine straight playoff games of having allowed at least four goals and just two wins in their last 10, a shake-up would be rather important for the Jets to get going on. That’s not to mention that from last postseason to this one they played in only two games decided by one goal, with a rather good 1-1 record in those games when compared to the remaining 8 (just 1-7). The Canucks this postseason played in 10 games decided by 1 goal and just 3 decided by 2 or more. As the Canucks went this postseason 1-2 in games decided by two or more goals and overall had a record of 7-6, they went 6-4 in games decided by 1 goal. Arturs Šilovs, who during the 2023 IIHF Adult Men’s Worlds Top Division tournament, backstopped the relevant Latvian team to a bronze medal. This postseason he helped the Canucks stay in a lot of games after Thatcher Demko, then Casey DeSmith, had gone down to injury. It’s legit to ask, after two straight opening-round exits and nine straight games of four or more goals against, whether it’s Connor Hellebuyck who is played in each and everyone of those games has actually managed to elevate his elite regular-season play into the postseason. Last postseason Stuart Skinner had issues stopping the puck, and it showed in so many games the Oilers had played that would ultimately end in a loss of their conference semifinal in six games to the Golden Knights. I can’t think of too many playoff games during which the Oilers had allowed under three goals, with their last game of the 2022-23 season having ended up quite badly at 5-2 Golden Knights, no doubt having wiped out a 2-1 Oiler lead at the end of the first period of that game. The 2023 Oilers‘ postseason no doubt featured plenty of blame to go around because as much as any fan of the Oilers would’ve wanted Stu Skinner to stop more pucks than he had, not great defence didn’t help them either. This postseason for the Jets went a lot more badly for the Jets because, well, they didn’t last as long, losing in 5 games. It doesn’t matter how good the Jets’ prospect pool is because all but one playoff game they’ve played following their 2021 North Division stint during which they had been placed, within such division, with the Canucks, Flames, Oilers, Leafs, Sens and Habs, has featured at least four goals against. How can a team win in the postseason when so often it has given up that many goals? That the Jets, over the past eight playoff games during which they have allowed that many goals or more, have won only one of them shouldn’t be too surprising.

He's kind of in the Connor tier of player. Skilled finishing but the rest of his game has some notable issues that would be difficult to justify the price for.

@@LockedOnJetsNHL Nečas and Filip Hronek (the latter a Canucks', but ex-Wings', d-man) are 2 of over 100 players who this season were under contract to NHL teams but whose contract expiries give them arbitration rights should the teams for which they're under contract, or to which they are, at some point this month, traded, give them qualifying offers. Such pending free agents have a restricted ability to pursue deals with the teams that hold their negotiation rights although not receiving a qualifying offer means become an unrestricted FA. There may very well be quite a few pending RFAs with arbitration rights who, due to non-receipt of QOs, become UFAs although just how many are TBD.
