Proposal: If WPG gets 1OA

[BatVader]

Jets are stacked at wing, but lacking down the middle, so trading down for a “C” pick would make sense.

Option 1)
OTT: 1OA
WPG: 3OA + 5OA
then...
LAK: 3OA +‘21 3rd
WPG: 2OA

-Pick Byfield at 2OA
-Pick RD Jamie Drysdale or RW Lucas Raymond at 5th

Option 2)
LAK: 1OA
WPG: 2OA + LAK ‘20 2nd + LAK ‘21 2nd + Sean Durzi

-Pick Byfield at 2OA
-Also get a couple 2nd rounders, and a promising RD prospect

I don’t think the Sens would entertain that for half a second. They are far better of with 1 of Stutzle/Byfield and 1 of Byfield/Rossi than just having Lafreniere.

 

[GoJetsGo55]

With as loaded as we are at winger, trading 1 for 3 and 5 would be a dream.....thats a dream contained within a dream lol.

 

[WingsMJN2965]

If you think you're getting 3 and 5 for #1... You're gonna have a bad time.

Sens have voted 85% in favour of keeping 3,5 instead of a trade for 1

 

[themelkman]

Or just trade Ehlers for a center and keep the amazing winger on an ELC

 

[Drake1588]

Ottawa is better off taking two players in the top five than they are combining both of those picks to move up.

Combining the #3 or the #5 with other asset(s) to get the #1 overall could make sense for Ottawa, but not both picks. This is going to be Dorion's default position as well.

Blake will say No in five different languages. One of them being Klingon...

Lol.... nice

I really don’t see Ottawa going for that, neither would LA. They have the choice between Stutzle and Byfield, why would they take that choice away from them for a mere 3rd round pick?

 

[Crosside]

I don’t think the Sens would entertain that for half a second. They are far better of with 1 of Stutzle/Byfield and 1 of Byfield/Rossi than just having Lafreniere.

You can be surprised. Lafrenière for Melnyk it s gold

 

[Pierce Hawthorne]

a 3rd round pick does not get you from 3rd to 2nd...

 

[callan819]

Jets trade Laine+ for Eichel

Lafreniere-Eichel-Ehlers
Connor-Scheifele-Wheeler

 

[bl02]

Jets trade Laine+ for Eichel

Lafreniere-Eichel-Ehlers
Connor-Scheifele-Wheeler

That is a sick top 6 but it's not happen. The Jets are at least winning one round. They already won 1st overall too bad it didn't count.

 

[Tripod]

S0 to go from #3 to #1....it costs #5 overall.

But to go from #3 to #2....it costs a 3rd round pick?

Hmmm.

 

[Adam da bomb]

Would LA trade
2oa + 2021 1st top 3 protected to move up a spot?

 

[Baksfamous112]

Jets trade Laine+ for Eichel

Lafreniere-Eichel-Ehlers
Connor-Scheifele-Wheeler

That + better be Morrissey

 

[KingsOfCali25]

Would LA trade
2oa + 2021 1st top 3 protected to move up a spot?

Hell no!

But we could move Kopitar retained for 1OA++

 

[Adam da bomb]

I think we’ll pass and Kopitar doesn’t fill our need. Even though he is a good player.

 

[TS Quint]

Jets trade Laine+ for Eichel

Lafreniere-Eichel-Ehlers
Connor-Scheifele-Wheeler

As a Jet fan, I wish.

What's the Jets needs?

Edit: because my thoughts are if you get Kopitar for nothing off your roster. It would make the Jets a Stanley Cup front runner.

 

[TS Quint]

Seems like just taking the player they like is more the Jets style regardless of consensus, like they did with Morrissey and Scheifele.

Good player and more so very good career......but I can't see anyone trading 1OA++ (especially in a good draft year) for anyone who is going to 33 years old & almost 1100 NHL games on his tires before the season starts......regardless how much you retain.

Even if that plus is someone like Little?

I’d much rather have 1st overall in this draft than 3rd and 5th overall.
