WhiteOut, what are your thoughts on the future? Go for another run next season or trade those guys and re-tool? Ehlers, Connor and Morrissey are all great players so the Jets can re-tool.

If you're rebuilding a team you can't just trade away depreciating assets, sometimes you have to trade away something good. Connor has shown that he just doesn't have what it takes to play well in the playoffs. He doesn't have the size and it seems like he doesn't have the heart. I will compare him to Johnny Gaudeau but a little bit bigger and not as productive in the regular season. Believe me, I like Kyle connor, and I hate the idea that we would have to trade him, but again, you can't just trade away #### and expect good returns.
