@NikLynam Waivers, Chevy is petrified of guys that are not waiver exempt. Refuses to call them up and then prefers them to sit in the press box rather than attempt to send them down to get playing time.
@Oaktree65472824@JiriMat@WPGMurat The jets also have natural centers that were drafted as centers but have never used as a center. Vilardi, Perfetti, and Lambert were all drafted as center and are still listed as center but never actually play the position.
@UrAvgJetsfan@LR2470 55 is safe because the organization never use the centers they draft as centers. Perfetti, Vilardi, Lambert, all drafted as centers but never play the position. They draft fast offensive players and try to develop them as 4th liners. It doesnt work that way.
@TechNTools@NotTheJoeMarino Half of Skinners wins if not more, are because of Edmontons offense and goals scored. Skinner let in alot of terrible weak goals that McDavid and Drais had to make up for. Helle's losses have a lot to do with the team not being able to score due to a garbage bottom / middle 6.
@hockeynightdoc@DarrenRoss74 Trying to compete while trying to rebuild puts you in mediocre pick land. Mid teen picks are not how you rebuild. The GM is the issue here. Signing a bunch of slow old free agents and not playing your prospects is a huge issue.
@nhlburnerboi Speculation speculation speculation. No actual proof Helle said anything about being traded. It started with his season ending interview comments and has blown up to full speculation and rumours.
@NikLynam@gibbs_8541 Perfetti and Vilardi were both drafted as centers, neither one has ever played that position in the Jets line up. Lambert is also listed as a Center but will never see the position. Its not that the Jets dont have centers, they dont use thier centers for the position.
@nhlburnerboi Slavin is the comparable who is proven, durable, and better. Slavin signed a hugely team friendly deal because he knows the team needs cap space to sign better players to help them to the ultimate goal. That is experience and maturity right there.
@nhlburnerboi This is a great deal for both, 4.25 next year, which is what he would have most likely got in arbitration. Leaves room for Conners raise. He gets a decent raise the next two years to c9ntue progressing and getting better. Takes him to 29 yrs old to get the long-term $$ deal.
