Meier vs DeBrincat

Meier will cost less than what Ottawa paid for DeBrincat without question because playoff teams dont have top 10 picks that often.

If you are talking about if both are available right now I imagine the cost is pretty close to identical. Cat has a stronger 2-way game and hasn't had the same quality of linemates due to the Norris injury

OTT wants a top 4 RD that is a actual top 4 RD in his 20s signed, SJS would be fine with futures as they should be rebuilding, dont think OTT and Jets are good trade partner for CAT, you would need Pionk more than Cat also Jets would need the assets to get a top 2 C when Dubois leaves.

If the Jets are spending these types of assets it needs to be on whoever is willing to sign long term.

I know many are in the camp that Chevy needs to go all in and I get that but a team based in Winnipeg just can't be laissez-faire with quality assets like 1st round picks and A-prospects.

I agree with most of this but IMO the Jets would be better off without Pionk on the roster.

The difference is San Jose wants future and Ottawa wants to make the playoffs. So they’d be 2 different type of trades. Ottawa doesn’t want a prospect and a 1st where as that’s what San Jose wants
