Speculation: D'Amico: Connor Hellebuyck trade talks. Florida (or Toronto/Buffalo)?

[scarbrow]

Counter offer:

Reinhardt + Erod + 2 2nds for Perfetti + Hellybuck

IMO that's a pretty seismic trade

No thanks Lundell would need to be the other piece. Reinhardt isnt what we need if we are raising the white flag and rebuilding which, trading Helley is doing that

 

[Pablo El Perro]

I get the impression that Reiny wouldn't be a good match for Winnipeg, and probably vice versa.

He's a solid AHLer.

I done been tricked.

Why are people calling Brady Tkachuk a superstar? Connor McDavid is a superstar. No one besides hockey fans even knows Brady Tkachuk's name.

If Brady had any other last name people would not talk about him in these terms. He is a 30 goal/70 point guy and sometimes not even that.

Reinhart has a 16 team NTC, I’m willing to bet Winnipeg is one of the teams he won’t go to

It's such an overused term that it's pretty much lost its meaning. At some point, "star" players all got promoted to "superstar" status.

That isn't true.

He was on every talk show after the Olympics. Even before that he was all over the news from 4 Nations when the 3 fights in 9 seconds happened

 

[dkollidas]

I just don’t see Winnipeg getting much for Hellebuyck. Age + contract makes it a bit prohibitive.

I could see Buffalo sending something like
Krebs + #20OA + Strback? But not much more.

And same for other teams. I think it’ll be a player + 1st + prospect kind of deal, but not a first line player or a top prospect.

he also had a major staring role in the goonies as the beloved character sloth

Most non-hockey fans in the states don't know who Connor McDavid is.

His list is actually probably "Winnipeg" written 13 times, then Calgary, Edmonton and Ottawa

Yes...childhood star

I don't keep up enough with other teams players to assess what is fair and what isn't.
I'll leave that for other people to do.
I just know that every time players have put Chevy in a bad situation for a trade that he has made trades that were very good for the Jets.

Evander Kane puts us over a barrel... great result for Wpg
Laine wants out and Dubois was a good return.
Dubois wants out and we were over the moon with that return.

We'll see what happens.
If it's more of a futures deal then we won't know for a long time.
But Chevy doesn't have to trade him this year so we'll see what happens.
The franchise will accommodate players but aren't going to shoot themselves in the foot.

I gave up trying to predict these things a long time ago.

Does anyone make more sense than Carolina here?

Nikishin, high picks, prospects, etc

Personally no real interest in Nikishin, but Canes absolutely could be a location to go to

 

[Eggtimer]

I’d think FLA , CAR , BUF make the most sense for landing spots but hopefully my Devils somehow get in the mix . Pick #12 plus Mercer plus plus ???

 

[BeranekAndNeck]

They’d have to flip Nikishin somewhere since the Jets do not need another LHD, but looking at what Byram got that should be plenty easy to do. I can easily see the Rangers, Sharks (with 9) or Nashville coveting him. Then that pick can be flipped for Helle.

If Chevy thinks Mercer could be a 2C it might get the conversation started.

Looking at your roster I think he'd probably be interested in Glass and/or Dillon as well

Reinhardt doesn't have trade protection, so it works out.

 

[TheBuriedHab]

Just stay in Winnipeg Helly. Don't come East

 

[Sabre the Win]

I feel like Buffalo has better assets.

Not for Winnipeg anymore, they already got my boy Rosen for nothing. Chevy can f right off and lose the next trade.

I wrote Winnipeg on mine, and I live there

 

[viper0220]

Is Florida allowed to trade the 1st round picks in 2030, 2031, 2032?

I think it is 10 years. So 2036.

We kinda do need LHD though, we have no ready now prospects and our 3LD is basically non existent with plugs to only fill the position currently, also with JoMo and Samberg coming to the end of their deals after next season our left side is not exactly secure.

I am not overly familiar with Nikishin but it could something that might interest Chevy.
