Fine trade him if true but better get a handsome return. Frankly he has never panned out.
My mate from the lake, a former WHL winger and Stanley booster, just weighed in:
If a tree leaves by the deadline, does anyone care?
We'll see, I guess. He def has some nice tools that might carry him in a different setup, where he's played as a largely immobile offensive D, used primarily to make some sweet passes and launch transitions once he's bedded in and not panicking.
He might come to define a new NHL genre: the puck-nonmoving D.

Good. Ship him out.
Hope some dinosaur gives us a 1st plus for him

Hope he isn't in a rush. This is Chevy he's dealing with

A part of me sees where he's coming from. If this is the case, maybe the team should grant his request and trade him for the best return possible.
That would be nice, but I just want him to be a reasonable part of a package for something we need.

Nah, we're still working our way through the Enstrom Stock.

Samberg is so far ahead of him in the depth chart that it makes sense to ship him out. Teams with old school GMs like NYI, Anaheim, Oilers, Canucks, Senators, Flyers are whom I'd target.
I don't love that he went public with it. Makes it awkward to keep him in the room. I guess that was the point though.
I doubt that he gets anymore ice time with a contender. Maybe a rebuilding team would be a better fit.

Agreed, going public makes it harder for him to go back into the room. But as a fan I'm glad its out so hopefully pushes hard to get something done.
Well, Jets slow cooked him through minors/AHL, been given reasonable amount of chances to grab an NHL spot and he just hasn't been good enough to be a staple on our defense. If he's bitter about not having a playing spot he can only blame his own lack of skill (and I guess maybe injuries). Good luck to him elsewhere if he gets traded. I'm sure some team would play him on their 3rd pairing for a lack of anyone better, but if you want to win hockey games he's ideally not on your playing roster.

Did he go public with it?
When Andy Strickland tweets that he's "hearing" something, I have to wonder where and how he heard it.
Yes, we've all seen thousands of tweets retweeted hundreds of thousands of times which turned out to have no substance to them whatsoever.
Don't disagree, but I reckon that most of the guys in the room understand the stakes for a guy now on the margins.

Jets have given him plenty of opportunity perhaps even undeserved so if he feels this way, screw him. Get rid of him. You've had chances Tree, you just aren't good enough

why are people so offended he asked for a trade? he's 24 and been passed on the depth chart and feels he could get an opportunity else where

Nobody is offended but the reality is he was given plenty of chances to EARN a spot and hasn't done so. He's our 7th or 8th d right now, it's not a big deal. I just think he's delusional. He's not an nhl d.

"screw him. Get rid of him. You've had chances Tree, you just aren't good enough" I mean... come on talk about an over reaction

Expect the worst, you’ll never be disappointed.
Ents from Middle Earth would make better defensemen then Stanley. Trade for a 2nd or part of a package and be done with it.

At the end of the day, the Winnipeg Jets won the trade with Philadelphia to move up to select him. Logan Stanley was given 6.5 years to develop and this is what he is at the most. A bottom pairing defenseman. The Jets were in need of dmen at the time, a run of dmen started with Chychrun going to Phoenix, Winnipeg joined in, the players taken after him have been busts, Tage Thompson took until 24 year sold to figure things out. It is what it is. Winnipeg hopefully will find some team enamored with his size to overpay and maybe we can recoup something or move him in a deal for a playoff push.
