It is absolutely not missing another 1st and a high end prospect lol. A 1st+ for Jenner is enough. A high end prospect would just mean a 1 for 1 for Jiricek. He isnt generational enough to get more than a 1 for 1 with another high end prospect lol.
Oh my god we're back to the Jenner discussion too.
It's absolutely missing another 1st and high end prospect. Arguably it's missing a 1st and
A high end prospect, on top of Bourgault.
Jenner = 1st, 2nd, A-level prospect. Anything less and we'll just keep our 2C captain on one of the best deals in the league, or at least find another team.
(You really think Colorado, a team exactly one 2C and a backup goalie from the closest thing we've seen to hockey perfection in a while, wouldn't absolutely launch a 1st, 2nd, and Ritchie out the door for 3 cracks at a Cup with Jenner at $3.75M, especially if it means a team like Edmonton doesn't get him?).
Jiricek = Top-5 pick or U23 1RD. Anything less and we'll just keep our guy who will absolutely be 1RD before he's 23.
(You really think Toronto, a team with a dire need for cheap RD, wouldn't absolutely launch a 1st, 2nd, Cowan, +++ out the door to have Jiricek on his ELC for 3 years, and likely forever after that?).
Lets get real here. We've got enough middling prospects and filler players. We need quality, and we have that in Jenner and Jiricek. If you're getting
both, you're sending us Draisaitl.
