Jets News 2/13

The Jets have made a trade acquiring forward Eric Tangradi from the Pittsburgh Penguins for a 7th-round pick in 2013.

It's a very, very minor trade at best. If anything, it's a "take a chance" trade. A 7th-rounder is nothing to us so if it's a miss it wouldn't hurt.

Tangradi is going to be the 13th forward at best unless he plays a little better than mediocre. Why? Because Wellwood has been mediocre so anything slightly better and he'll see time.

Or maybe Wright finally gets taken out of the lineup. Miettinen is slated to return to the lineup soon so there's that. There's a bottom-six stockpile here...

As for Tangradi, there is no fantasy value here and no NHL expectations either. Wish him the best of luck, but there isn't a single expectation.

Eddie Pasquale was recalled from St. Johns. Montoya was injured in Tuesday night's loss to Philly.
