Why Playing the Youth Will Benefit the Jets



The Jets had a quiet free agency period, watching many of their veterans sign elsewhere with other teams. This isn’t the worse outcome however, it may even be the best possible one….

Thanks so much for watching! If you want to stay up to date with all of my Jets content, leave a like and subscribe for more!

  1. I'm actually very happy that this is happening. Playing our youth and giving reps and opportunities to learn and grow. Plus whether we do well next season or not its a win win. We either get a high draft pick in a stacked, very deep NHL draft in 2025 (I pray we get Michael Misa) or get a great young team that will grow and get better every year. I love it. Best thing to happen to our team.

  2. I'm really happy this quick retool should have happend a while ago.
    I like how it sounds if you outplay someone or earn a spot your on team.
    Where years past we kept high priced players instead buyout or bury in AHL. Or Stanley/Schmidt over Capo,Heinola and others.

    I know most fans will want typical guys on team top prospects.
    I'd like to see Fluery be 7th/8th dman.
    No reason Ford,Shaw,Chibrikov,Lucius can't push Kupari,AJF,Gus down as 12/13/14 fwd.

    I'd still like to see moves iafallo,pionk,Stanley,Mcgroarty maybe Ehlers trades but if Chevy does keep them or a player like Appleton whoever has value at deadline flip for pick.

    I rather finish wildcard with room to grow then 1st/2nd and 1st round exit like last 2 years. Start acting like Vegas/top teams
    -have your core flip in ELC,Cheap UFA
    -if guys play is dropping off don't be like oh well he's our guy get them off while still can.
    – Never be scared to be in on top guys
    – take chances on lesser UFA or unsigned college guys instead lose like Chisholm,Kovacevic for nothing. Flip them salary retained/already paid deadline. Like Montreal/Arizona/Nashville have done.

  3. The youth are like trees – you need succession. The idea is to surround them with solid leadership and experience and watch them grow underneath. Do we have the right leaders to help them take shape?

  4. I think if they do a youth movement this season and they wait the McGroarty situation out he may decide to stay at the end of this ncaa season

  5. After the ‘18 run management thought they needed to continuously buy until we won the cup but in reality we should’ve plugged the holes with youth. We’re 3 years too late to doing this but not too late to ruin our chances forever
