If things dont get better

I dont know that we need him. Not poking, but right now we are good on the backend. If they move one or both of Severson/Graves then perhaps for a playoff run if they are in the need. Problem is they like Casey alot.

Would def like Zucker on the Jets. I'd be wary of giving of a 1st for anyone though just because strong draft class + I'm not sure if we're really legit yet. If it were a decent prospect and a 2nd I would be a lot more receptive. I could probably be talked into it though with top-15 protection.

I'd have to say that even though Zucker has been one of your better players, there is less than no chance Winnipeg even thinks of thinking of doing that.

Idk man. Honestly, the thing the Jets are missing the most right now are versatile middle-six wingers. A 1st rounder might be a steep cost, but Zucker is a def a rental the Jets should consider targeting. Especially if retained.
Although saying that I would prefer they try and trade a defenceman for a forward instead of a pick

Rutta would barely be a bottom pairing dman on the Devils. 2 2nds for him is a steep price
