Quoting: habitantlecolon
So why in the first place Jets fans are asking Dach or whoever from Habs if he is Untouchable or that rumors are false?! Is he really out of reach or do the fans don't want to lose him?! Is this whole almost 150 comments out of context?!
Honestly don't know. Could also be his Agent is stirring the pot to try and create a bidding war. Try and make teams think he wants to go to Montreal to try and see if other teams will offer big money to try and change his mind. My opinion as a Jets fan is, while I think he is a terrible human and very selfish. I would like to see him stay with Winnipeg. When he tries, he is a very good 200' player. He is strong on the puck, great back checker, very physical, borderline an agitator.
I think Winnipeg gets the trade rumors from the Winnipeg Media.We almost blinded by it because we think the media knows something. So we take their words and run with it. Not sure what is said through the Montreal media but all of the Winnipeg media suggests it will take Dach, 5th overall, or Barron to woo the Jets. Of course nobody knows what a deal will look like. I love the comments "untouchable". The fact is, every player is available if a team thinks the player they are receiving is that good.
It was reported as well that Dubois could be heading to LA for Byfield, Clarke and a high draft pick. Seems like a lot to me for LA to give up, but these guys must be getting this information from somewhere or they could also just be spitballing like all of us.
Winnipeg media today said that a deal that has been discussed is Scheifele to Carolina for Jarvis and Pesce. Now Carolina fans would say absolute not, and maybe they are right, but that is what we hear from our reporters.
I actually love/hate this site. It would be so much better if everyone on here wasn't so rude all of the time. I am assuming that the ones that are are just kids. Can't imagine any adults acting like that. Its great to see the passion of all fan bases and how everyone values their players. It is also funny to see all the trades proposed with the same players and people talking like these players are good, yet every trade has them getting rid of that player. Take Dvorak for example. I have heard how good he is and how good he will be, he has just been shut down by the Canadiens because they had nothing to play for.
