josh Posted June 18, 2019 Share Posted June 18, 2019 Meh. I feel pretty confident it won't be that hard to get him to sign an extension. giving up so little will make swallowing the cap hit a bit easier. That's if he signs long-term. Maybe Jets knew he wont sign long-term extension in NY?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ThirtyONE Posted June 18, 2019 Share Posted June 18, 2019 Meh. I feel pretty confident it won't be that hard to get him to sign an extension. What I mean is that he's making moves that take a while to play out. I read today that Zucc and Dallas were closing in on a deal -- both want him to stay. That would be yet another 1st next year if true, and a huge trade for them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pws85nyr Posted June 18, 2019 Share Posted June 18, 2019 I?m officially impressed. Not just with signing a great player for very little and addressing a real need, but not being fooled into resigning Pionk and getting some value for him whilst his stock is up.

Well played sir [emoji122][emoji122][emoji122] Sent from my iPhone using Blueshirts Brotherhood mobile app powered by Tapatalk He's not signed yet and he'll likely be very expensive. But it's a fucking steal, no doubt about it. As far as I'm concerned this move is the exact kind of move they've been talking about for this rebuild. Not going for the FA, but getting some skilled RFAs and letting them become the feature players of this team. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In addition, Skjei and Trouba were teammates with the United States National Team Development Program and helped the United States win a gold medal at the 2012 IIHF U18 World Championship. Boo Nieves and Jacob Trouba were teammates at the University of Michigan for one season (2012-13). Jimmy Vesey and Jacob Trouba helped the United States win a gold medal at the 2013 IIHF World Junior Championship. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Dude Posted June 18, 2019 Share Posted June 18, 2019 So is this going to push Shattenkirk out the door? Buyout? Do they trade DeAngelo? Too many RH D men. Do they go first pairing of Skjei Trouba? Shit, do they turn around and trade him if they can't hammer out an extension before the draft? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not going for the FA, but getting some skilled RFAs and letting them become the feature players of this team. Oh for sure. But it beats going after say Karlsson (ignoring the fact he resigned today) and overpaying. We own his rights so we have an element of control in the negotiations. Yes he could hold out again, but playing in NY is certainly more enticing that Winnipeg, if the difference between the two parties is nominal. As I say I?m more impressed with not being coerced into resigning Pionk. Plus, I think this shows a real sign of intent to upcoming UFA?s like Panarin.

LindG1000 Posted June 18, 2019 Share Posted June 18, 2019 Just...wow. Just when you think Gorton's painted the masterpiece, he goes and does this. We literally traded Kevin Hayes and Neal Pionk for Trouba and Lemieux. Unreal. Unbelievable work by Gorton. Now - get him signed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BrooksBurner Posted June 18, 2019 Share Posted June 18, 2019 They have to. He has no role and no means of building his value from this point. Maybe they aren't committed to DeAngelo. If they aren't, why can't Shattenkirk play on the 3rd pairing with some time on the PP for a year? If he plays well in that role, someone might want him at a reduced cost. Otherwise, they can buy him out at that point for far cheaper. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RodrigueGabriel Posted June 18, 2019 Share Posted June 18, 2019 i know its a good deal,but i am so cheap, i hate giving up first roundersWill also make the draft much less interesting, but a much better outcome than a 20th pick. The best offseason ever continues to deliver.

Dunny Posted June 18, 2019 Share Posted June 18, 2019 I kind of wanted to make that 20 pick. Now the draft will be boring as shit. Great deal, obviously, but will be interesting to see what Trouba gets for money, likely another eventual back breaker, but time will tell. And, no Pionk. That's fantastic.

BrooksBurner Posted June 18, 2019 Share Posted June 18, 2019 Seems like this might either mean Kreider is a goner or they will not be players for Panarin. Nobody wanted Smith or Shattenkirk so we can't get rid of it and a buyout is a bad decision right now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dunny Posted June 18, 2019 Share Posted June 18, 2019 I'd play the shit out of Shattenkirk and bury Smith in the minors to save the million. If you can hang 45 points on Shattenkirk this season he'll be easily dealt a year from now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nobody wanted Smith or Shattenkirk so we can't get rid of it and a buyout is a bad decision right now. To be fair on that last bit - Brooks was way off on the asks for Trouba, clearly. I think the markets for both Smith and Shattenkirk could start to form in mid-July, when the dust has settled. There are 5 teams with over 10m in space to hit the cap floor right now, and almost all of them could use a "player + mid prospect for cap space" sort of trade.

Are you not entertained by the franchise player we're drafting? Also, Trouba's deal won't be a back breaker because he's only 25. The "worst" we can do is sign him until he's 33, at which point he should still be a decent player. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, right there with you on all of that. But I have no patience, and I dont see getting a Trouba at 20. I dont feel like I can really complain about this trade... I assume Gorton had his eye on one of their originals guys in the 6-9 range, couldnt move up there, and pulled the trigger on Trouba. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's fun playing the guessing game, and Kakko was never in doubt. But hey, bird in hand and all that stuff. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
