Quoting: Windjammer
Boston and Winnipeg aren't good trade partners. Any trade for Scheifele would start with Carlo.
and that's why it will never start, good luck if you think any team will trade a u25 very solid defensive dman for the worst defensive C in the league, any team who does that is just asking to let in an extra 40+ goals a year. i think maybe you could bring in an Offensive young RHD but defence wins championships and especially for most teams they want their C's to be the more reliable defensive players in their offence.
the last 7 teams to win the cup their best C was very solid defensively
21-20 tampa (brayden Point)
19 Blues ( Ryan O'Reilly)
18 Capitals (Nick Backstrom)
17-16 Pittsburgh (Sidney Crosby)
15/13 Blackhawks (Jonathan Toews)
14/12 Kings ( Anze Kopitar)
11 Bruins ( Patrice Bergeron)
4 out of the last 7 teams to win had a selke winning C lead their team
crosby/point/ backstrom all are very solid in their own end, crosby could compete for a selke and point most likely will one day once bergy/kopi/ o'reilly slow down and depending on how couterier recovers
schiefele just doesn't fit the mold of a 1C stanley cup winning Center
winnipeg has all the talent in the world but when 3 of your top 5 forwards (conner/ schiefele/ wheeler) are ranked as 3 of the top 6 worst defensive forwards in the league and then your other 2 (ehlers/dubois) are ranked in the bottom 25% percentile for 5v5 defence it doesn't translate to much success
