This is one of the better "low-key" RH shot top d-men available in the UFA market this summer. Jets do very well on this, especially if it gives them a leg up on re-signing him. Guy would make an excellent #4D.

DeMelo is starting to give me Cody Franson vibes with how little the league seems to think of him despite solid underlying numbers

It's also weird that the only option up from a third is a second.

A third plus a fifth?
Janko and a fourth?

Dylan DeMelo is one of the more unheralded middle defensemen in the league right now. That said, why are the Jets doing this? They have little chance of making the playoffs and he is unrestricted at the end of the season. If they re-sign him then a third-round pick for a 27-year-old second-pairing defensemen is obviously a terrific price, but that's a gamble.

Weird move.
