Rumor: Jared McCann available?

[NjdevilfanJim]

If you deal Nemec it should be to team with a similar aged fwd prospect

 

[tantalum]

I can see the Canucks looking into bringing him back. A package like this would work for both teams:

To Vancouver: McCann, 2025 4th

To Seattle: Klimovich, Bains, Briesbois, Juulsen, 2026 5th

I don’t know, the Canucks might need to throw in the 7th round pick….

 

[Snowman]

I'm curious if Winnipeg is willing to give a massive package for both Bjorkstrand and McCann.

They shouldn't be. Another top 6 winger would be a luxury not a need. If theJets are giving up a huge package it needs to be for a reasonably young 2C with term.

 

[KopitarGOAT420]

To Seattle:
Trevor Moore, 2026 2nd round pick, 2025 3rd round pick, LD prospect Angus Booth

To Los Angeles:
Jared McCann

I say yes, but who says no??

 

[Zajacs Bowl Cut]

Window is open not closing two different stages....Going for it with Markstrom out Nico Siegs seems desperate....McCann in your opinion means we get a cup? Not so sure he's that type of add imo..Especially when you are talking about giving up a top RHD prospect

all of those guys are going to be back by the time the playoffs start. Hell, Nico and Markstrom might be back right after the break ends.

Idk. Juulsen seems like a pretty critical piece to VAN's efforts to remake their defense. I'd say take him and the 5th out and it's more fair to this neutral and objective observer over here.

Couple high flying scoring wings and a top tier shutdown guy seems more than fair for McCann, even if he *is* on a sweetheart deal

Hell no to both of these.

We don't want Moore as the centerpiece to a McCann trade. Give us a 1st and a top or at least good prospect. Probably a guy in your top 5 or top 10 prospect pool depending on what team you are.

I don't even want to talk about the Vancouver deal, no we aren't trading McCann for a bunch of spare parts and garbage.

Start with your 1st + a good prospect. McCann will fetch at least that or probably won't move. But I expect there will be a bidding war.

Are you being serious?

Not even slightly, humoring M2B's shtick

Kerfoot or Holl straight up?

The window is now? They are an old team? ...McCann is good and fills a need but as I said earlier he will want big money on his next contract....The window is open not closing trading Nemec imo is shortsighted....Kovacevic is probably gone as a ufa as well increasing the need to keep guys like Nemec and

I understand where you are coming from but Devils need some more forward depth . They would get Mcann fur two more years . How else can you add a 30 goal player without moving Nemec ? You can’t. We have RHD depth and that’s would be taking from a strength to address a weakness.
I am somewhat torn on what to do with Nemec. Keep him , trade him for someone like McCann , or trade him for a forward equivalent ( younger forward with upside ) . If McCann was as effective at C as he is on the wing , I’d trade Nemec for him for sure.
Maybe better off keeping Nemec and getting someone like Evans and another depth forward using our 2nd round picks ( I think we have 3 this year) or someone like Casey Gritsyuk etc and hold onto Nemec to eventually replace Hamilton. I don’t know what the hell to think. Mcann would be a very nice addition but I think Deviks need a 3C and better bottom 6 first and foremost. Evans and another solid 3rd liner and keep Nemec

Agreed. I'm one who would love to add either, but if the Jets are ever thinking about putting a huge package together it should be to solve a long term need like 2C or 1RHD.

Yager is their long term 2c. No need to trade for a long term 2c just short term 2 or 3 years at most.

 

[devsfan8]

I'll go a different route as a Devils fan. We keep Nemec.

Devils trade:

Dawson Mercer
Seamus Casey


Seattle Trades:

Jared McCann
Yanni Gourde (Much needed 3C) UFA
Joshua Mahura (purely for left handed Depth on D) - UFA 775K - 100% retained
2026 4th (Seattle has 2 of them)

Devils lines post trade:

McCann-Hughes-Bratt
Palat-Hishcier-Meier
Cotter-Gourde-Noesen
Tatar-Haula-Lazar

 

[Wallet Inspector]

That'd be very dumb for Seattle to trade him. But based on what I've seen from the Kraken and read in this thread that the Kraken are basically ran by ownership not so much the GM.

I think Seattle could fetch five good assets for McCann considering his contract is on low term and if you were to retain 50% there's more room.

Not necessarily, the team may want to go through a retool, especially since some of their better players are UFAs in a couple years.

 

[Huffer]

Yager is their long term 2c. No need to trade for a long term 2c just short term 2 or 3 years at most.

That's the hope, but there are no guarantees. Plus, the Jets have a window right now and Yager like you say is 2 or 3 years away from an impact. And even then he'll be on an elc so there are options.

IF the Jets were willing to put a large package together, IMO it would only be for a RHD or 2C, and I don't personally see an issue with that even with Yager (and Lambert) in the fold.

 

[BigDaddyLurch]

Agreed. I'm one who would love to add either, but if the Jets are ever thinking about putting a huge package together it should be to solve a long term need like 2C or 1RHD.

...isn't Morrisey the Jets #1 RD??...

as a CBJ fan i'd happily offer the MIN 1st and then some

Not awful but I'd want more for both McCann and Gourde, especially since Mercer isn't trending well. But if you add something like a 1st and a 2nd I'd probably take it. Though Mahura is doing very well for us and is a great depth piece. You also can't retain 100% on someone.

Kerfoot or Holl straight up?

Very funny random Leafs homer, maybe if you keep trying you'll get a decent offer eventually!

as a CBJ fan i'd happily offer the MIN 1st and then some

MIN 1st + 2 of Ohgren/Ritchie/Heidt/Stramel/Kiviharju or 1 + a 2nd for McCann?

I think the foundation of a deal is there
Mahura at 50% retained then. And thr Devils include a 2nd (the highest of 3)

Mercer
Casey
25 2nd (highest of 3)

For

McCann
Gourde
Mahura (50% retnetion)

 

[cbjthrowaway]

MIN 1st + 2 of Ohgren/Ritchie/Heidt/Stramel/Kiviharju or 1 + a 2nd for McCann?

no, i meant CBJ has MIN's 2025 1st and would offer it in a deal.

if you're looking for prospects the second piece would probably be someone like del bel belluz. if you want a roster player instead i'd be willing to part with chinakhov, but i think other CBJ fans might balk at that.

Oooooh. I'm stupid.

I'd jump on Chinakhov + 1st and devour you in seconds if you offered that.

Otherwise prospect wise there's not much but personally I'd also be interested in Whitelaw, Svozil and McCue, assuming that Mateychuk and Lindstrom wouldn't be available which seems extremely likely. Not sure if that would be enough for McCann though. Probably would have to be something like 1st + 2nd + 2 prospects.
