Not interesting for Winnipeg. Neither player fills a need for the Jets and the value is awful.

I like it, both trades are solid, all singings are good, love the Aho signing, swayman and Lindholm are probably pretty accurate contract wise too. That Heinen contract seems like a lot at first, but I guess he's kinda earned it. I'd be alright with a 1 mil player in that spot though to save some $ for the deadline.

Necas isn't signing that contract, and he's not a "true 1C" haha... he's barely a C at all

Nix giving Heinen 2.25mil to play on the 4th line and give that all to Necas and it might work

I want Heinen on this team, but let's just say we give Necas 6.5mil, how long does he sign for? 8 years it's a deal, but I see him taking a bridge.

Rumblings are that he wants back at C because thats what he played at his whole life, and at a C starved team like the Bs, he'd get his shot.

What are you expecting from an Ehlers deal? Roster player, strong prospect, and a pick is pretty solid for any player like him dealt in the offseason. I'm sure he gets more at the TDL but they're not waiting that long if a good deal falls in their lap

Where's Anderson's Vezina? Imagine if Sway- Ullmark was Koch- Ullmark with that forward group and D corps in front of them. Also you have 8 starters as UFAs, you're lucky if you resign 3 of them.

Thanks for you expert advice on the Canes. Maybe they should hire you as a consultant

Goalies don’t return players like Necas, they just don’t carry that sort of value. They’ll deal Necas for a like young asset or package him up with additional assets for roster upgrade up front or on the backend.

Out of the ufas, good if they only keep a few. Outside of Guentzel, time to change up the roster regardless. They have plenty of cap space to do so.

It depends. The Jets are trying to contend now, so a futures heavy deal like this doesn't do a lot for them. It's a step down at wing, a bottom of the lineup player that isn't an improvement on anything Winnipeg already has and a worthless pick. Pretty uninteresting.

Would you trade a valuable piece for that return?

Maybe something around Carlo would work.

I don’t think Ehlers will get the return you’re expecting

I don't think Geekie, Lysell and A 3rd will get you the return you're expecting.
