<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>jimmyjets</b></div><div>I’m going to suggest that Friedman doesn’t know jack as we have Perfetti, Lambert, McRoarty, Barlow, Chibrikov that we already need to make room for. Bring in another winger is the last thing we’d need. In fact I think we are probably looking to move Iafello as well.

Kevin Fiala trade to the kings for Faber and 19 oa would be a decent example. Debrincat trades and Dach, although traded at the draft don’t feel like as good of fits.

The analytics and puck transition numbers will be what makes team covet Ehlers. With top line utilization and pp1 usage he easily goes above a point per game.

Maybe a sign and trade a la Matt Tkachuk could also be an option to maximize the return. I would prefer to keep as a rental then take the proposed return.</div></div>

I think DeBrincat and Fiala were younger, better players without the injury history, but thanks for insight from a WPG fan.

How do you reconcile how WPG fans feel about him, and his poor usage/deployment by the managment?

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Jonesy204</b></div><div>I think the value is fine, quite the haul in fact. Imo, Jets already have plenty of middle six forwards and they need more size on blue line not less, the pick is nice. need high quality not quantity. When PLD happened Jets had less depth than they do now. I think they would get a more appealing deal elsewhere.</div></div>

Very fair.

I think Joseph would safely come in below Schiefele, Connor, Vilardi, Perfetti, Nino and Lowry, but would probably be the 7th or 8th best forward on your team, but he would be your 4th youngest forward.

My thought process that turning an expiring 3rd best forward on your team into a cheaper 7th best + late 1st (which as I said, you could turn into 17OA) + A defenseman who would be your youngest NHL D, who has more than 250 games (more than Samberg or Stanley, who are older, Hes an NHL pro) would be acceptable.

You could take that 1st and use it to upgrade somewhere

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Windjammer</b></div><div>Are you trying to sell one fluke career great by Joseph as him being a consistent 41 point or better player? Something he's never come close to doing?

A 24 YO defenseman that would be 9 or 10 on the depth chart?

A nothing prospect and a real late 1st.

Sounds exactly as I described it, nothing interesting.

This is about 25% of what PLD got in value and they were players the filled needs for the Jets, not random pieces you are looking to dump.</div></div>

LOL youve got some dramatically inflated value of your own players if you think Brannstrom would be 9th on your chart.

As far as Joseph, a year ago was the blip, 2 of the last 3 he has been that player. He has almost the exact same production as Iaffalo and similarly didnt get his crack until he was 24

This is closer to 50% the value that PLD got, and thats about what you should expect for an older player who has less value. As far as *need*, ive mentioned the stated desire by Freidman.
