Its funny Mr. Ate Me, Jets fans continually bash our 4/5 defensemen and they continuously show up on other Stanley Cup Championship rosters, i.e. Ron Hainsey, Johnny Oduya, ITS CRAZY MAKING!!!

ya and I can argue we didn't win the cup last year cause we had Myers on our team. what's your point? are we both not right?

Myers is far from a great #4 D. he is a serviceable 5/6, not great but yea an NHL 5/6 D. most teams hate their third pair, Myers joining any 5/6 pair in the league wouldn't change this. Paying a 5/6, bottom pair D anything over 2.5 million per year is a huge mistake and waste of cap space. If Myers wants to re sign here for 2 years at 2.5 per, great. I'll sign him. anything more, no thank you

Name 10, #4 defensemen that are currently playing in the NHL that are better than Myers.

Right D are few and far between on the 2019 UFA list though Rexy.


I guess if you don’t care what side, Myers could be replaced by a best like Bowmiester?

- Byfuglien Ate Me


Nope. He’s not an NHL dman anymore. I’ll take a look st the UFAs later, but at the moment I’m down for a Niku-Poolman bottom pair

By ice time? Or by actual performance?
Some teams have multiple #1’s, while some have a bunch of 6’s

- Ross77


I’m gonna go team by team, only regulars apply. Less-proven guys on ELCs don’t count:
Brandon Montour
Alex Goligoski
John Moore
Buffalo only has 2 better
Calgary has 3 better, 1 worse, and 2 rookies
Pick any Cane dman. They’re all better
Chicago has a lot of unknowns. Myers wins
Colorado only has 3 better
Marcus Nutivaara
Connor Carrick
Only Green is better. Myers would be Detroit
The corpse of Andrej Sekera
Mark Pysyk
Derek Forbort
Jonas Brodin
Montreal. Myers wins.
LOL it’s Nashville
Argument for Severson. Myers edge.
Ryan Pulock
Rangers. Myers wins.
It’s Chabot. Just Chabot. Alone. Myers wins.
Philadelphia. Myers wins.
Jamie Oleksiak. I’m surprised, too
San Jose has two guys better than any Jet. L.
Carl Gunnarsson
Mikhail Sergachev
Toronto. Myers vs Hainsey. Myers wins
Vancouver. Only Gudbranson is worse. Weird.

Spent a lot of time watching Gunnerson and Carrick. No way they are better than Ty My. I will reserve my judgements on the others, but Car/Gun being better than Myers is Fake News Rexy. #teameyetest

Agree.

Chevy will probably look at the UFA class and see it the same.

Karlsson
Myers
J Bo
Edler
Gardiner
Methot
Kronwall
Schenn
DelZotto
Petrovic
Polak
Hainsey
Chairot
Orpik
McQuaid

Highlight the list.

I'll take EK at the same cap hit as trouba anyday. The guy has never produced, and continually takes brutal penalties. Even gardiner would be cheaper, with career highs nearly double trouba's. Trouba hates being in Winnipeg, despite being a top contender. It is time to fetch some value before people realize he is in his 6th season with a career high 33 points

Arguments can be made there. Remember my ELC rule, though. Vince Dunn and Heiskanen both best Myers.

He led the entire blue line in points at 5 on 5 last season.

That said, I’d take EK at any hit if he’s back on the horse by season’s end

Misremembered. That’s on me.

Jacob Trouba led the Jets in points/60 and assist/60, is the correct take I wanted

It’s very clear that this is true. My question is why? Is there a backstory on this?

Points per 60 minutes of 5v5 hockey. Trouba was tops on the Jets blueline last year and I believe top 5 in the league. This season I see Morrissey making large strides in his game while Trouba is still looking to find his form/consistency from last year.
Props to Myers for a solid game(finally) last night and the Moose blueliners for playing solid hockey.

I can’t see how that would be good in the room.

I don't think Arizona would do that deal. How about Little and a 2019 2nd round pick for Kessel?

Then trade Trouba, Petan, Copp and 2020 first to the Panthers for Bjugstad and Ekblad and a 2020 second round pick.

Jets lines look like:

Ehlers-Scheifele-Wheeler
Connor-Bjugstad-Laine
Kessel-Lowry-Tanev
Perreault-Roslovic-Appleton
