Things change day-to-day! Just like the way Benning operates this hockey club! Plus he was running out of time...

I'm guessing no one else wanted him at full freight
Maybe seeing the doors improve he changed his mind? Winnipeg wants to win. He wants to win , win/win
Nice that the Jets have improved the D but I think this means Copp is 100% on the way out

Dillon for 2 seconds and Schmidt for a third. This is backwards. I know he had a tough year last year but he had 3 really good years before that. Great player I think thrives in the peg.

Dillon-Demelo ( had to do it)

The entire day core is really solid.

Schmidt is fine but he’s redundant in Vancouver. He will never, ever play PP1 minutes here. We simply do not need more offensive minded left shot defenceman. We still have 3 of them after trading Schmidt. We need defenceman who can defend, kill penalties, and play hard minutes. Schmidt is good but that’s not his game.

If the Jets had made these moves a year ago they would have won the conference. Now they need to battle through a tough division. Better late than never I guess.
Here's how I'm blindly choosing to look at this and you can't change my mind. Last year Vegas traded him to Winnipeg, and this past season was some sort of twisted fever dream. The Canucks now have the same cap space they would have then, and the picks they would have then.
In addition you can add another straw to the camels back that is Benning's firing

Good move for both teams. He struggled in Vancouver but it may have just not been a fit. For a 3rd round pick I'm fairly certain Winnipeg is getting what Vancouver thought they were getting last year.
Yeah, I thought we could maybe pry a little more in a trade, but the Canucks - like Vegas before them - want the cap space. Now they've got it.
Pettersson and Hughes extensions should be coming fairly shortly.

As a Canuck fan im very relieved we got out of 6 mil for for 4 more years.
We have enough transition offence players, the fit just wasnt there.
We need stay at Home defenders.

Vancouver can’t coach defense.
they should be glad to get rid of the contract
future considerations would have been a win

Jets address their needs on D in a big way without moving a 1st
I guess he decided to waive after all, once he realized there were no other trades materializing.
Schmidt really wanted to get out of Vancouver that bad.
Great deal for Winnipeg though. They've essentially rebuilt their defence.
