<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Garak</b></div><div>That is not true in the least bit. Jones has not complained. He was asked a question in his interview a few weeks ago about how he feels after being traded to CHI not expecting a rebuild. And that is the ONLY time he ever publicly expressed any displeasure with "the teams status". And he also went on to say how excited he was about the rebuild and the progress and the players who are on their way and what he has done to try to bring the kids along. You just made that whole thing up about Jones.</div></div>

"If I could have seen 3 months into the future (when I got here)…I didn’t want to be in a rebuild when I left Columbus…we want to be one of those teams that are all on the same page, working towards a common goal. Everyone wants winners." - Seth Jones

Didnt make anything up. He basically implied he wouldnt have committed to the team if he knew they'd be bad. Thats on him and thats awfully negative coming from somebody who said he wanted to be a captain. Hawks should make him happy and send him to a contending team.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>JK74</b></div><div>I admire your restraint with the FA signings. It's refreshing for sure and I appreciate that. I think Demidov is their pick at #2 although I've been on record about how much of a good fit I believe Levshunov would be here. As for the Jones trade, I think Chicago would pass. I like Marner but Jones fits in well here even if he is overpaid. I don't think Davidson moved up in the draft to spend those assets on a one year rental.</div></div>

The Hawks have done extensive scouting on Levshunov and they could really use a blue chip RHD prospect in the system especially if theyre gonna try to move off of Jones. I could see a Demidov pick as well, I just think Levshunov makes too much sense for them.

The thing about Jones is not really the money. He's done nothing but complain about the team's status and he doesn't really seem to be bought into what they're doing. So I disagree, I dont think hes a good fit anymore. And to comment on your apprehensions about a rental, I think the only way a Marner deal gets done is if they have assurance he'll sign an extension.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>CaseyFlyman</b></div><div>If you're looking to ship out Andersen in a goalie swap, Columbus would like to talk. Elvis isn't Ullmark by any stretch, but he has proven to be a capable starter in the past, he's just struggled with being in a tandem recently behind one of the worst defenses in the league.

I could see Freddy-for-Elvis one-for-one, no retention necessary on Freddy, and CBJ retain $2M on Elvis to get the contracts to work. He just badly needs a change of scenery, and that option is preferable to a buyout IMO.</div></div>

Not sure why the Canes would do a 1-for-1 for a worse goalie, even at the same dollar amount. It would make more sense for both teams if Jackets traded for Freddy and then either dealt Elvis somewhere else or bought him out
