Winnipeg has no rationale to give Gagner away for nothing to help Toronto out.

that and we have 0 need for him. Both sides decline

100% agree. The Jets are looking pretty good, and there "deadline" add of Ehlers makes this team serious.

Gagner has been very effective in the Jets bottom 6, and one of the last guys they move frankly.

They will add to the bottom 6 before subtracting.

This Leaf fan sees that lol

No. Leafs could use Ganger 100%. He just isn't going to be available.

His puck distribution skills would be very useful on the 3rd line.

Let’s hope this is NOT the team come playoffs; talk about underwhelming moves - neither of those players impact our ability to win in playoffs, imo. Just wasting assets

supposedly Dubas has made it clear to Knies that he has a path to join the team after the college season. Adding Gagner would only block him out more, and even if it turns out that Knies isn't ready we do have other forwards that can play.

spending assets on a guy that will likely be 4th line or in the press box doesn't make sense for us.

Take Timmons and the Calgary 5th rounder out of the deal and the Hawks accept. I'd be willing to take a flyer on Hirvonen.
