[Report] Morrow and Beaulieu Not Qualified


Recommended Posts

I would take a stab at Joe Morrow.  Not flashy, but he is simple and plays a safe style to be a good bottom pairing/spare Dman position.

 

I don't like Beaulieu all that much anymore.  he seems to he challenges with making good decisions with and without the puck.

Morrow struggled to play defence in Montreal.  He has a booming shot though and can provide some offence.

These are two solid 3rd pair D.... they both skate really well.  They could be cheaper targets for us and drop the price of similar guys.

I think their team doesn't like the arbitration value so they'll re-negotiate another contract with them.

... because they are available and he will still sign Nemeth to a $4 million dollar 4 years contract :)

Nemeth is much younger and probably more valuable as a trade chip 2-3 yrs down the road

My bad, Nemeth is not younger but I doubt JB would sign him @ 4 mil. He appeared in more games then those 2 guys

I think the point is to actually upgrade the blueline -  this is aiming awfully low too early imo.

 

Another of the Jets, Chiarot is better - and plays a heavier game - than either of them.

 

Not sure why they'd bother with a Morrow or Beaulieu (there was a time when I'd have liked to have Beaulieu) at this point - what they need is an actual roster defenseman, not a 4/5 LHD - they have their own guys, including Juolevi, beyond the 3 spot.
