If we are talking sens players, we need Zibinejad, cowan or Lehner....not Spezza

I'm not sure why everyone is always so keen to trade Buff... he's probably been the best Jet this season (along with Little and probably Ladd) he's top 3 in defencemen scoring in the league.
I'd be looking to unload Wheeler and Kane long before I thought about moving Buff.
If the Jets make a big trade they need to pick up multiple pieces of young talent, not trade multiple pieces of young talent for one aging star.
A big 90 point C? Na, we got no use for that I would totally do Spezza straight up for Buff. Maybe even Buff and a second or prospect. Yes, he'd be up for a contract in 1.5 years, but maybe he would like it here. If you know he isn't signing by next feb, you dump him as a rental.
I would certainly do something like Buff/Cormier/Telegin/2nd for Spezza, .....but those "clearing out the trash" deals only work on EA NHL. Plus Binghamton is red hot, they don't need/want anybody.
a better trade would be
Kane + buff +4th are worth Turris+Erik Karlsson +2nd
The problem is that you can only trade Buff once. If we trade him for a player that will only be in Winnipeg for another year, the Jets will just end up spinning their wheels in mediocrity. While he is still a good player, Spezza is a rapidly diminishing asset due to age and looming UFA. (I would say he's closer to an 80 point C than an 90 pt C, anyway).
I think that if they move Buff, it has to be for young pieces that can fit into a younger core of players (Ladd and Little as the vets, Kane, Trouba, Scheifele, Bogo and the upcoming picks as the younger core). I think the best option if the Jets trade Buff is to target is a young top-6 F, a very good prospect and a high pick.
I thought that the Flyers might have been open to a big trade like that earlier, and they have the right pieces. But they have picked up their play and I think that window is closing (or closed).
