All trades require a dance partner. I am not saying that is the reason nothing happened, but could be the case. I have a theory though on why Winnipeg doesn't make big trades. I honestly think that it is because nobody wants to come to Winnipeg. I feel like this teams ownership's top priority is not to win the cup, but to be able to keep a team in Winnipeg. That is why i think that they never want to part with assets or draft picks. I also think that even though now may be there window in our minds. The window is actually closed. This year the winner is coming out of the East. I see no paths where Winnipeg could beat Boston, Toronto, Rangers or Tampa and that is only if they can find a way past Colorado. In my mind losing in the final is the same as missing the playoffs. 2nd doesn't get you a trophy. Shortly after this year there is a good chance that Scheifele, Dubois, Helle and Wheeler are all gone so having those high prospects in the system plays a major role. If any of this thought process is close to what they are thinking. Then folks Winnipeg is preparing for a rebuild right now. and management is just trying to fool us with these little trades.
