Chevy played the Habs vs the Kings like a fiddle, he rejected no less then 3 Habs offers (likely was more) by all reports between last summer and this one. No doubt he likely leaked the rumored LA deal to continue to get the Habs to up their offers so LA would up their offer and took the LA deal in the 11th hour. Huge haul for a player leaving anyways and very limited control over.

Chevy getting the Habs 2nd rd pick added was just the icing on the cake and a bit cheeky. haha

I feel the same way - and also could be wrong - but i don't think I am.

That's an awful lot to blame on a player. Winnipeg loves its scapegoats, and I think Mark has been unhappy for awhile, but I think the organization might be willing to try and repair the relationship. Might also be a plan to try and retain their top wingers who are approaching free agency who want center talent to play with.

Agreed on Helle he has made his intentions known but has Scheifele said that he does not want to be here, I may be in the minority but I think he likes being a big fish in a small pond. Adding the players the Jets did could really benefit his play

when he signed his 8 year contract he commented something to the effect of how cool it would be to be with one team his whole career, and how rare (might have referenced yzerman). so, ....?

i still believe the loss of Dale had a huge impact on mark that (most) people didn't take into account.

This has been a problem for a few years. This should of tried to been addressed a while ago and not wait until it got to this point.

Montreal fans going "Oh now that we see the price I'm glad we didn't trade for him" is absolute copium.

How many "Lol Winnipeg will take nothing and like it" tweets went out into the atmosphere, only to come crashing down today.

@ ICDave, dont forget to bring this up during tonight's podcast..

These tweets were posted on the Habs Boards to mock Winnipeg for having our "Hands Tied".

Wings were his favorite team growing up and Yzerman was his idol ... I'm surprised there was no rumors of Scheifele going to Wings.
Imo I think he signs with the Jets.

Says the guy on his third team?

Reminds me of a guy I knew, twice divorced, who married a third time and pledged to love his third wife forever and forsake all others.

Yeah, right.

I've been wondering if the Jets now take a run at resigning Scheifele. The PLD trade was not a rebuild trade and frees up cap space. I think Helly is gone, but I wonder if Chevy takes a run at trying to sign Scheifele?

I can't imagine they're relying on Perfetti and Vilardi being able to fill our 1C and 2C slots, and I can't imagine we can get a centre as good as Scheifele back in a trade. That leaves only one option.

How?
Kings got their #1 center and had to cut salary too? The 3 players were probably going to cost more than the $8.5 PLD contract.
Don't get me wrong ... Jets got a great return but to say Blake got robbed is wrong because he wanted a #1 center which he got.

They didn't really cut salary when you consider they have to replace 2F

That's what I am thinking. If PLD went for a futures package then you unload your pending UFAs for more futures and we are going into a rebuild. But the PLD trade was a clear retool trade move not a rebuild, so it only makes sense to not move out your top win now talent. I wouldn't be surprised if Chevy is also making a pitch to Helly trying to keep him long term.
