Friedman: Jets and Rutger McGroarty are not talking - his name is coming up in trade talks

[KirkAlbuquerque]

No you don't, Larkin, DeBrincat, Copp, Petry(+Czarnik & Mazur) and you have Werenski and Waddell. And Wings have one Buckeye in GR.

And soon to be Trouba

 

[kenobiwan]

Just thought of a 3 way trade that could benefit all parties involved. If values are off don’t tear me to shreds just using this as a base for a trade and would be open to any tweaks that would make it a more fair trade.

Carolina receives: McGroarty, WIN ‘24 1st
Winnipeg receives: Mailloux
Montreal receives: Necas

Pass the joint, you’ve had enough

I predict McGroarty gets traded to the Rangers for Kakko.

The Jets will want win now pieces instead of picks or prospects because they want to compete while Schiefele and Helleybuck are still in their primes.

The Jets will have Lambert and Heinola playing in the NHL next season. Heinola, drafted in the 2019 1st round like Kakko, won a spot with the Jets in training camp last year until he broke his ankle in the last pre-season game and needed surgery.

Kakko is from a smaller town in Finland. He will feel much more comfortable in Winnipeg with his former Finnish teammates. I’m pretty confident the Jets will be able to tap Kakko’s unmet potential.

If I were a Jets fan, I'd be pretty upset with that return.

We'll give them Joel Armia the sweet fin!! Throwing in there Oliver Kapanen too if you want!

 

[KirkAlbuquerque]

I think all of these offers being made are pointless, this seems like a situation where he wants to pick where he plays.

Every offer made on this website is pointless , so what?

 

[Heldig]

Rangers offer Kakko, and Miller to Jets for signed Rutger McGroarty, Colby Barlow and Dylan Samberg

Holy **** no.

I like Miller but not that much.

Maillioux is of zero interest and does not hold this value ..this is just bad

[Guttersniped]

I'm not sure were you are headed with this comment. Hutson?

He's a "top prospect" but that's all he is until he goes into the corner with a Tkachuk.

I'm a big fan of show-me. That is why i value kids who already have a season or two of NHL versus paper tigers. Even less a fan of kids who demand rather then prove themselves.

You made it sound like HFBoards was in love with Harris when he signed, but other than some overexcited Habs fans, I don’t think that was a thing.

 

[Nemesis Prime]

Canadian teams gotta stop drafting these silver spoon ahh college kids.

 

[HabsAddict]

The extra special brain trust thought the Habs will lose him...lots of braindead derision and glee.

He signed...he tried...he's going nowhere fast and needs time and development to bring it to another level. IF he is even capable of it.

No different then the reality Rutger will face.

i said it before and I'll say it again, I'm a big fan of "show me" irrelevant if they are Hab prospects or other teams prospects.

Works for me as a Rangers fan

Because he saw the way they used Perfetti and their development path and figured yeah screw that?

The nerve of this lad to protect his future vs an Organization that will only give a shit about him if he delivers a promise they've manifested via scouting and projections.

Kakko as a “win now” piece lol

Winnipeg is in a tough spot. They want to win now, but teams aren’t trading established players with control for a prospect.

I agree up to a point, but all the reports say he feels like he doesn't need any AHL time at all.

perfetti got put into the top 6 at age 19 until he got hurt, put in the top 6 at 20 until he got hurt, put in top 6 at 21 until he went into a massive slump, really think how we've handle perfetti has got way overblown by people that overhype the shit out of prospects...

Perfetti has been shafted by the Jets.
Half the team slumped but only Perfetti got punished.
AJF in for Perfetti in playoffs???
I can see him being unhappy.
Let’s see what Arniel does first.
The only way to get experience is to play.
I hope we can at least see if Rutgers camp can be persuaded to see what plans we have for him based on the coaching staff changes.
As a Jets fan I was very happy with this pick.

To Winnipeg: C - Connor McMichael (RFA), +?

To Washington: Rutger McGroarty

omfg axel got in for 1 playoff game, the f***ing travesty.... he was left in the top 6 on a line with ehlers when we got monahan over the other players as well.. at this point I wouldn't be surprised to see perfetti less upset at his usage then the jets fans on this fourm...

1 game too many

 

[Beukeboom Fan]

He has a lot of power here because he can hand-pick the team he wants to sign with.

No team is trading assets for someone who isn't gonna sign. Gonna be interesting

Only if he plays 2 more years at UM! Tough to delay your career that long as a 1st round DP.

See what you're missing is that there's different rules by coaches that love veterans over youth, where if a veteran player goes into those same slumps, they get a long rope to get back to their game whereas a young talented player doesn't get even half as much or much at all. As a Penguins fan, I know that sort of idiocy when I see it after seeing Sullivan do it for the better part of a decade.

It's ok mate, the first step is realizing there's a problem, there's a support group for everything.

1 point in 23 games, deserved to be played more... who cares about him getting an top 6 opportunity at the age of 19, how dare they cut his mins/scratch him when he wasn't performing...

I can see why McGroarty wants out, you lot justify this sort of shit.

You missed their point.
The vets that sucked while he did , got no reduction in playing time, they got time to play through their slump.
Do you understand now?
