That's an exhausting sentence that I've been reading hundreds of times. "Your GM made bad trades, therefore I can't show even a modicum of respect to you or the rest of your fanbase in actually trying to propose something that would make for an interesting discussion". Not only is your reasoning for it unoriginal and inane, you didn't even put enough effort in to make it remotely funny. Congrats, internet cretin. - MaximumBone
Ignoring the fact that I just got shredded, gathered up piece by piece, trash compacted, and lit on fire here: Edmonton has nothing I want and can actually have, aside from Klefbom. Everyone but him is untouchable, or terrible |

I would not do that trade. Ehlers is a Kariya/Bure type player and is proven. Both players you want are unproven. If I trade Ehlers, I want a Center coming back. - TheUltimateJet
I agree with this 100%. The thing that’s even more fun about is that with Little having a sudden resurgence, another center isn’t even a problem. Just let Petan or Copp run the 4th line, and you’re 4 lines deep with overqualified centremen |

I think you over value ehlers and I also don’t think you’d get the type of Center you want for him unless you want a Center deep on the back 9 of his career. |

On-Ehlers is a legit, top line forward who does basically everything at a top level.
Off-Ehlers is basically just a space creating, zone entry god who can’t seem to get anything done once hes got it out of our end and into theirs |

Than trading him for Pulijarvi makes no sense. If you want a Finish forward to compliment Laine, I suggest looking at Aho or Barkov.
Funny enough My boy Joel Armia so far has more goal than Wheeler, and Ehlers. |

That's an angle to this discussion that you can reasonably take I think the only players on the Jets of any interest to me would be Ehlers or Trouba but you don't trade Dmen top pairing Dmen for wingers (unless Taylor Hall, ofc) and Trouba's cost uncertainty is too much of a risk compared to Klefbom's 4.16mil.
Apologies if I went overboard earlier; I've seen innumerable variations of that sentence to the point that I have a rather spiteful reaction to it. |

never suggested trading ehlers straight up for Pulju. |

So you are suggesting: trading Myers and Ehlers for Klefbom, with Pulijarvi as a throw in? That trade to me makes no sense. Could you explain how you would rationalize it? |

simple, Klefbom is on a great contract and is far better than myers who is a pending ufa and will be over paid on his next deal. Pulju, is off to a slow start in his career but I still see a very high upside. I noticed his English is still very poor and think this may also be playing a part. ehlers is better than Pulju today, 2-3 years from now I'm not so sure? and this deal saves us on cap space which we still desperately need. |

also fellas,
haven't forgotten about a night out to get together, i'm now thinking first 2 weeks of December, maybe plan it on a night the Jets are on the road, so we can watch and argue during lol? sorry I haven't done this sooner, just very busy at work and have been travelling a ton. |

I don't agree with this rationale. Ehlers is on a team friendly contract, especially considering what Nylander wants and what Draisaitl got. If i am to make the trade for Pulu and Klefbom. I am more likely to trade Myers plus a 2019 first. Ehlers is a proven top 10 pick. |

Myers isn’t worth either of them, nor is our 1st. Ehlers is the most valuable piece in the hypothetical deal, yes, but Myers is the least |

All good, man. Oilers fans probably take enough sh*t as it is.
Would you consider Myers and a 1st for Klefbom?
I don’t know what’s fair for the Klefdaddy |

And Wheeler was worse last year than the year before. Points aren’t everything - Rexypoo
frank you. Wheeler was top 10 in scoring last year you idiot How dare you throw the heart and soul of this team under the bus. Again, go back to your mothers basement and crawl under the covers. You have no idea what you are talking about |

i think its weird that Jets fan consistently bash our #5 defenseman and #12 and #13 forwards. I think more onus needs to be put on our top players. |

It is when the guy consistently bad mouths our good players and praises the bad ones (Dano,Postma etc) |

Points aren’t everything. His powerplay production tripled, while every single aspect of his game at 5 on 5 regressed a bit. Let’s not get it twisted, Wheeler is still excellent, he’s just not as good as he used to be. Age gets everyone.
I have a Wheeler jersey on my basement wall, btw. Love the guy, he is 100% the captain we need, but I’m not gonna lie and say I don’t see the cracks forming in his game. |
