Interested to hear this as well. Especially since those select few can not, or should not, try to convince us Duck fans that trading Lindholm for Trouba is a good idea anymore.

We know what some Jets fans want someone like Lindholm someone who is better then Trouba. Such Jets fans need to not demand a over payment for someone who isn't happy with their team they should be willing to accept a fair deal but convincing them what is a fair deal isn't going to go over well.

Sekera + Reinhart + 1st

Trouba + Lowry + Burmistrov

Reinhart sucks. Oilers aren't the same team as before so a 1st ain't worth as much. Getting Trouba + Lowry + Burmistrov would cost more then Sekera + Reinhart + 1st also Trouba wants out of Canada.

Don't really expect anything different. This thread is just going to be a tire fire.

I've been told this is an overpayment, but I think he supplants Ristolainen as our best Dman if he comes to Buffalo.

W. Nylander
2017 1st (with some lottery protections)
Choice of Justin Bailey, William Carrier, Nick Baptiste
Cody Franson

Dammit, did we really bring back the wrong Nylander when we came back from Buffalo?

He wants to go to USA apparently but still:

JVR
Kasperi Kapanen
Brendan Leipsic

two young NHL ready wingers with tons of upside (who are also destroying the AHL) and a established top line winger with two years remaining.

I'm not sure what WPG would even want though. If they want D, we don't have the depth to trade and D. Our tradable value comes from wingers.

I find it unbelievable that a team is going to run this guy out of town because of TYLER MYERS.

Brandon Davidson and a minor piece is what I'd give. Davidson doesn't have the reputation to have that taken seriously, even if is a solid piece. That said, I'd take the Ryan Murray offer, or the one that had Tanev going to Winnipeg over anything that Edmonton would realistically give up.

Jesus Christ.

You want to trade Alex Nylander, another 1st and good prospect and a nothing for a guy who has proven to be a good third pair D and wants to get paid like someone who does a vastly harder and different job. Supplant Ristolainen...if Ristolainen was gifted Troubas role he'd be Bobby Orr. Instead he has to play everyone's best players all the time in the hardest zone starts and first unit PK.

I reject everything about this. My god. Just trade them Eichel and Reinhart for Myers and be done with it.

If you believe that this has been about usage, I would like to tell you about a wonderful timeshare opportunity.

"Good 3rd pair D"

"Instead he has to play everyone's best players all the time in the hardest zone starts and first unit PK"

Trouba averaged more minutes on the PK and was on the 1st D-pairing.

What LHD does WPG realistically want? Every time someone mentions Maatta or Fowler that's not good enough. I'm genuinely asking who their target is.

I don't think it is that cut and dried. Morrissey is playing well on our first pair and Enstrom is still good. Right now we need a really solid 3rd pair LHD and we need a couple of strong D prospects, L & R.

Of course IDK what Chevy's thinking is right now but near NHL ready prospects who are expansion exempt are starting to look very good from where I sit.

Jersey
NJ's '17 #1 and a expansion exempt winger to Minny for Brodin

Brodin and NJ backup Goalie (thought I read they need one, if not F or D prospect)
For
Trouba

Minny gets a 1st, they have no 2nd in '17
Helps their cap
Jersey gets a #1 RD
Jets get the LHD they want with a sweetener
