<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>MNBassman</b></div><div>JEE is the heart and soul of the Wild! Incredible teammate! Will do literally anything to help his team win! He will also probably win several Selkes in his career. Nimbers and analytics only tell about half the story about how valuable his is. Add his very team friendly contract into the equation, and it’s not even close when comparing him to Kuzmenko!

The way I can tell this trade is pretty darn close value-wise is because it would be painful for both teams to even consider. I am a huge EP fan and have “traded” for him several times…but I would need days, maybe even weeks to think about this one!</div></div>

He will not win several selkes because it’s essentially a name value trophy which will likely be handed to Hischier or something even though he doesn’t deserve it. Pettersson is a top 10 center easily, some argue soon to be near top 5. It will take more than this coming back. JEE is great, but nothing in this trade can come close to replacing the massive hole left by Pettersson

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>RazWild</b></div><div>His analytics are just.... ok?

Please tell me you're joking. Because by most defensive metrics JEE is THE best shutdown center in the entire league. Bergeron is gone, he abdicated his throne. And JEE was 2nd behind only him, by analytical numbers.

Sure, players like Pettersson, Hischier, and Matthew's will be the typical guys getting the Selke love and votes. But that stems more for the Selke being extremely biased to players that come from large markets, star power, and their national attention from the overall media. It's for that very reason the considered 2nd best defensive center in the NHL during the 2010's, Mikko Koivu, never finished higher than 3rd in Selke voting. Again... behind only Bergeron.

But defensively speaking, those players may be good, great even, but by the metrics, JEE is better then them all.

Kuzmenko had a nice year, amd is a good player. But I guarantee there's not a GM in the league that trades JEE straight up for him. For the exact same reasons Calgary doesn't trade Lindholm straight up for Kuzmenko. Sure, by metrics, JEE is only a 2nd line center. But his defensive numbers are elite and second to none.

If I'm keeping one of them, I'm keeping the defensively elite shutdown center over the top-six winger.</div></div>

JEE

EVD GAR: 2.6
Def GAR: 3.8

Better than ok, but not really elite. He’s had better seasons

Pettersson:
EVD GAR: 5.5
Def GAR: 3.8

What model are you using? The GAR and WAR model don’t exactly prove your point
