NHL:
If Kyle Connor’s extension becomes an eight-figure cap hit, which Jets players are best bets to offset the risk?
Qwiket AI:
Players who can step into top-six roles or PP1 opportunities will be most valuable. A rising winger or a skilled two-way center who can multiply Connor’s scoring by creating secondary chances holds value. Depth forwards who can contribute on the PK provide insurance, while a couple of defensemen stepping into bigger roles can offset increased forward costs.
