NHLTradeRumors.me (click bait/BS rumor site) has Wings "aggressively pursuing Conner b/c of his friendship with Larkin" Supposedly Yzerman offered Athanasiou+Bowey+2021 1st

I call BS on SY offering that

Yeah, I can't see the Jets having any interest in that deal.

Yeah, I can't see the Jets having any interest in that deal.

Athanasiou maybe, but I can't see us seriously considering Bowey.

Mutually agreed, Wings won't wanna part with a low 2021 1st in the midst of a rebuild, as good as Connor is, he's not a Top pairing Dman or legit 2C

Athanasiou maybe, but I can't see us seriously considering Bowey.

Both teams say no to this, just clickbait. Our 2021 1st will likely be a ~10th OA.

All eyes on Connor as the last man standing.

What's the hold-up with Connor? Would have assumed he would have been signed right after Laine was done.

Ehhh, maybe. But not in exchange for Connor.

I'd probably do that if it were a 2020 unprotected first

A few weeks ago the odds on Connor being the last man standing would have been pretty low.

I think his contract will be signed in a matter of hours.
Likely a day and half tops.
It literally has to be just grinding over a few 100k or the structure (i.e. how high that last year will be).

I knew his contract wouldn't come out immediately after Laine's but figured within a day or two.

Yeah, but no way Detroit would.

7 years for Connor nice to get him locked up long-term. Good job Winnipeg

Anything in the 7.5-8 AAV range and that’s awesome.
