We all know dumba is probably going to be moved within the next year. Now, they probably want a top 6 center and how many of those do teams just have lying around and have the cap space to take dumba? The only teams I can think of is Montreal and Chicago. I don't think Montreal would have much interest in dumba unless they move petry. Even then, with Weber as their pp 1 an, I don’t see them wanting dumba. Chicago could be a good fit, but I’m not sure they can add that cap to their back end with seabrook, maata, and dehaan still there. The next best fit is Winnipeg imo, although Winnipeg can’t offer a top 6 center, they can offer something close in Roslovic. Additionally, just as a note, they will not be offering any top 6 wingers since all three of laine, ehlers, and connor hold considerably more value than dumba.
Now, the jets can offer Roslovic who is their closest bet to a 2c. I think he is a sure bet to become a 50+ pt top 6 forward, though I’m not sure it will be at centre since maurice won’t play him there. I do think he has what it takes to play centre though. In fact, from the little jets fans have seen of him at centre, most will probably agree he is more dynamic there. So my proposal is Roslovic +. I know some team might come along and offer more but this is my package that I do believe is fair and is the best Winnipeg can offer (we aren’t moving 10 oa for 3 years of dumba).
Finally, the jets make deal with ny bringing in leddy for the cheaper niku
The top 4 is a little on the small side, but it’s not too small. I would’ve offersheeted a guy like zadorov but the 2021 2nd was already traded for dumba.
The bottom of the lineup is probably differnt as I don’t expect gus, Vesalainen, or luoto to be there but I just moved then there because if did it want to sign depth options
Last trade is for demelo’s rights, much like the Edmundson trade
I said this is sort of realistic because these are all moves within the realm of rumours and there is nothing new. All three players have recently also been linked to the jets
I would like to keep niku, but I don’t think he’s going to be given his fair shot in Winnipeg with heinola and Samberg both knocking on the door. Instead the jets get a guy who can help now and potentially they can raise his value and move him next year
