Jets - General Rumour, Trade, Free Agent and Waiver Speculation (Part XIX)

[Evil Little]

Yeah, I think Petan would cost a lot right now.

 

[Davedrivesbus]

Buffalo's first overall pick and Zadorov for Kane.

Buffalo's first overall pick and Zadorov for Kane.

Buffalo's pick only has a 25% chance of being first overall. We'll know by draft day, though. But I like it, depending on how far away Zadorov is. But I also thought most Buffalo fans considered him untouchable. What side are you on?

But it's at worst a second overall. Ekblad or Reinhart would be the only player off the board.

DONE!

Reinhart/Draisaitl/Bennett + Zadorov for Kane.

 

[truck]

DONE!

Reinhart/Draisaitl/Bennett + Zadorov for Kane.

I would want an NHL player as well.

 

[mondo3]

Just the 1st for Kane would be fair

 

[GoldenJet89]

If Buf offered Zadorov and their 1st... Wow, we'd have to take it. They wont though

 

[bobbyboucher]

If you can get value for Kane id have no problem saying goodbye. I mean common guys i know he has potential but he's been awful this year, is pretty much one dimensional, and i think its clear what the coaches think of his game seeing as he's down on the third line with 2 borderline nhl players. What are we paying 6 million for? If you could get say a top 4 d-man, a solid winger, and a nice pick id say see-ya later.

 

[Bob E]

I highly doubt Florida will trade their 2015 1st rounder...they host that draft.

Well, then Bjugstad and 2014 1st. Oh and then it's a 2015 2nd.

 

[CaptainChef]

My feeling on that one too. Fla offered 2014 first (2-3 overall), Kulikov and Trochek which a far superior deal IMO. Some serious offers from NYI and Ana involving first rounders on the trade forum as well. Definitely lots of interest and tremendous value in Kane

 

[pucka lucka]

If Buf offered Zadorov and their 1st... Wow, we'd have to take it. They wont though

No way they'd ever take that. A guy who has scored 30 before he's 22 for a d-man in junior and another unproven pick? I hope you are joking.

 

[Winnipeg Jets]

Not going to happen, that's asking too much for Kane. As much as I'd hate to trade Kane, I think we could get some nice pieces for him. Buff is also an interesting trade option but I think his skill at playing two positions is just too enticing to give up.

Since 2000 the 1st overall picks were Mackinnon, Yakupov, Nugent-Hopkins, Hall, Tavares, Stamkos, Kane, Erik Johnson, Crosby, Ovechkin, Fleury, Nash, Kovalchuk and Dipietro.

Almost all of those guys are elite/franchise players and with the way the Jets have been drafting I am 100% sure they would be able to avoid picking a dipietro.

 

[puck stoppa]

How about this with the Ducks

Kane, Kitchton, 2nd rounder
Ottawa 1st rounder, Simth Pelly, Fowler

The thoughts of having a chance at drafting two of Dal Colle, Ritchie, Perlini, Ehlers, Nylander is very appealing. Smith Pelly on the third line for depth and Fowler #1 d pair with Trouba.

The Ducks are not moving Fowler I would think.

I know, but the more I think of it, we need to get a quality NHL player for Kane. All these proposals include prospects but I think we need something similar to the Seguin trade where the Bruins got a very good NHLer and top prospect. I know Seguin is better than Kane but I really want a good NHL player and prospect in return.

 

[CaptainChef]

The Kane bidding war is subsiding but it was sure interesting to see how obsessed some teams are with him. One Ducks fans was ready to give us Silverberg, a starting defenceman (Vatanen), and both Ottawa & Anahein first round picks for him -- a deal I'd do for sure. Sweet offers from NYI & Fla as well, but the frenzy has died down and now to kuuks have taken over.

The Bruins also added Peverly to the deal as well. I don't think they would trade either, but I would push harder for Lindholm over Fowler myself.

I spend a lot of time on all the other boards and even more-so prior to the trade deadline. Kane is a guy that is discussed, and lusted after by 90% of HF. It's pretty standard and predictable though. Once it's on the trade forum, it's all crap offers and spare parts.

Some of the offers were serious and worthy of consideration, but then you start getting the spare parts offers from Tor & Vancouver.

More and more though, I do get the feeling that Chevy may pull the trigger on a big trade this summer or at the draft and if its not Buff, it could well be Kane or Bogo.

 

[Howard Chuck]

As others have said, I just sometimes get the feeling that Kane has topped out. He started out his career by surprising people with his speed and size, but everyone seems to have figured him out now. Who really knows, he may get better or he may not. But his value is pretty high right now and it's a gamble we may have to take with the right trade.

Oh, there's definitely a big move coming. I hope it's a good one for the Jets. Be careful what you wish for, and all that...

If they don't fix the goaltending then no other big moves will matter

 

[Bob E]

I just get a feeling that if Maurice stays, which I think he will, the Jets will trade for Cam Ward. Likely a b prospect or picks. And Carolina picks up a portion of his salary.

Not sure if that's all that big of an upgrade, tbh, but it would be a goalie move.

 

[Evil Little]

This this this.

If the plan is that Pavelec plays three more years as the Jets starter, sell everyone for picks/youth and let's try this hockey thing again in a few years.
