So 3 teams and the chance was 50/50 but now Montreal is probably out.....chances have dwindled.
I refuse to get any kind of hope up about JJ being dealt. |

Here's what I really hate about this...
I had basically mentally reserved myself to the idea he's here for at least another season. It's going to suck if this rumor doesn't come to fruition.
Looking at Anaheim, they need dmen. Not sure why they'd want JJ, but do what you can, JR. |

Saw that Charot signing and immediately thought that was one more closed door.
LA is one that has long intrigued me. I might be the only one that thinks this but I'd love to get Kovy. Even just to use as a PP specialist, I think he would actually be an upgrade over Kessel on the PP. Something like JJ and Rust or Bjugstad for Kovy with 2 mil retained would make sense. |

The premise behind this is what position teams will be in once everything shakes out. Teams need to still signed players. Outside of Gardiner, the quality of dmen left over isn't that much better or worse than JJ. I guess what it will come down to is is his salary will make sense compared to what other guys are getting. |

Yeah, I think if you clear out JJ there will be someone equivalent you could get on a 1 year deal. Even Phaneuf... I don't think he would be worse and he would likely sign for under a mil.
Del Zotto would be another intriguing option.

imagine missing out on Sebastian Aho and using the $8.5 million on Ben Chiarot and Jack Johnson instead |

I've liked Del Zotto for a long time, but I think his best days are behind him. That being said, they don't need to sign anyone. Tang, Dumo, Schultz, Petts, Riik, Guds, Ruh and Trotts. Now, I'm not against the idea of getting someone better than Riikola if possible on the cheap? Sure. |

Hahaha, well I think it was either/or for MTL, but man, if Bergevin really didn't like his job that's one sure way to lose it. |

I have absolutely no idea why anyone would want JJ......even if he was free. |

Especially the Kings who already had him once and got rid of him. |

Anaheim has Lindholm, Fowler, and Guhle on the left side. LA taking Rust and a pick along with JJ makes sense |
|

Ottawa still has some ways to go in order to reach the cap floor. Send him there. Shouldnt cost too much since they need to reach the cap floor. |

Dorion will offer two unprotected firsts.....and Rutherford will say "hold on, isn't that Bobby Ryan I see on your roster? Hmmm" |

this is like that 3-doors riddle, where you choose one and then switch.
Pits chances actually go up!!!!

The only way I see one of those teams taking Jack is if we include a younger roster player or top 5 prospect. LA and Anaheim have already said they want to get younger so JJ doesn't make much sense. Also, it's the 4th period. So |

If you can get a 15th round pick and a bag of pucks for Johnson, take it and run.
