Ya thats paying a 2nd to get rid of gardiner

That's a pretty easy no from Winnipeg I'd imagine. A struggling bottom six winger looking for a raise and a late first isn't any incentive for Chevy to move Dubois now.

At the TDL in 2 years Dubois would get the standard 1st and good prospect return minimum.

So, 2 years of Dubois and his TDL return is worth far more than this.

I screwed with it a bit more a minute or two after. Dubois is a weird situation to me. While he's been good, he has made it quite clear that he has no interest in being in Winnipeg. While I could add a bit more, I feel the main pieces I have in play here fit well

Yeah. None of the pieces work at all for the Jets and Dubois has never said he has no interest in being in Winnipeg. He just said he wants to go to FA on 2024.

It's possible he may want out, but there has been no credible reports saying that. So, more than likely the Jets sign him for this year and see what next summer holds.

Plus like I said the Jets get a comparable return at the TDL in two years, so there is no need for Chevy to rush.

Who would you recommend as more of a fit here instead then?

The only guys that are fits, Carolina won't want to move. If PLD is going out, likely a similar top 6 center or young top 4 RHD needs to be coming back.

I meant who would you see Carolina getting

Edit* Screwed around a bit and figured it would just make sense to stick with Trochek

You're not getting that much draft capital for Bear

In what world is Zadina and a 5th a suitable return for Necas?

Both are very high ceiling players. The value of Zadina is way higher than what people think it is

Sure, lemme have some of what you smokin

Detroit accepts.
