Fan of neither team. NJD, Keep adding. Adding A lot.

 

[Stewie Griffin]

A) Winnipeg won't sell Connor
B) If they did, he's a point/game player making 7M for 4 more years. You need to add a more valuable piece to build your offer around, rather than 3 meh pieces.

 

[Stephen Gionta]

Adding Holtz

 

[Rabid Ranger]

......seems unlikely.

 

[Huffer]

If the Jets are making changes Connor isn't a guy they would trade. He's part of a team looking to win now, and if the Jets were going to trade older assets to go young, he's young enough to stay as well.

 

[Hunter368]

Jets have no need for Smith or Zacha at this stage.......so not addressing the value overall, just doesn't make any sense from a Jets POV........nothing being offered the Jets need for one of the most consistent scorers in the NHL who is signed long term on a good contract.

 

[AfroThunder396]

Don't see WIN making a deal without Mercer on the table

 

[Stewie Griffin]

Adding Holtz

That's much better. Like I said though, there's really no reason for Winnipeg to sell Connor, so you'll probably get a lot of backlash.

 

[AvroArrow]

Sorry, but why is Winnipeg trading Connor again ?

 

[Hunter368]

Adding Holtz

Again.....why do the Jets do it? Jets aren't rebuilding......makes no sense from a Jets POV

 

[Troy]

This is a joke right

 

[SpeakingOfTheDevils]

This makes no sense. Winnipeg isn't trading Connor.

 

[Mrfenn92]

Jets say no

 

[Snowman]

The Jets aren't trading Connor, but for discussion's sake if they were, you would need to start with less quantity and more quality.

It would need to be as close to a one for one deal as possible and would need to fill a need for the Jets as opposed to a collection of unneeded pieces for Winnipeg.

oof

 

[HugeInTheShire]

This is brutal, 3 pieces the Devils wouldn't trade and Zacha for a player Winnipeg has zero reason to trade... It's just so bad on every level

 

[Jetsfan79]

Let's not lash out at the OP. Although he do not specify that this was a "value of" kind of proposal, we can take it that way.

In practicality, the Jets will not trade Connor unless there's a big overpay. And there's only a handful of league wide players the Jets would entertain. Won't mention those names because the thread could go off the rails pretty quickly

Honestly other teams (or fans) wanting or talking about Connor is flattering. Looks like he's finally getting the recognition he deserves

 

[GOilers88]

Connor still criminally underrated here.

 

[Stephen Gionta]

Connor still criminally underrated here.

Zacha, Smith, Holtz, 2022 1st is some real good value.

That's 4 1st round assets.

 

[TheBloodyNine]

Horrendous for the Peg.

 

[rangersfansince08]

Zacha, Smith, Holtz, 2022 1st is some real good value.

That's 4 1st round assets.

Its a bust, a regressing player and two magic beans.
