Petersen deal is really bad for the jackets. They don’t need those picks and they already have one bad goalie contract

AZ not making that trade.

Why is Dallas giving up a 2nd Round Pick for a guy that's out for the rest of the season?

Not a chance Columbus takes Peterson unless they’re sending back Merzlikins.



I agree that’s too steep. While Nyquist does have some value because he’ll be back for the playoffs, it won’t be a ton because he’ll have to fit in on the fly, which is very difficult, and he also has appeared to lose a quarter-or-half-step this season anyway.

I could see a conditional second at best, but it should be more like a 6th or 7th that improves to a 3rd or 4th based on performance .
