No thank you

We will start with Perfetti and a first,

Let’s keep it real. He’s not worth that much with an expiring deal and Perfetti is probably more valuable just because of age. I don’t think this is a proper offer for Guentzel however Perfetti and a 1st would never happen.

Need a center or top 4 dman, no need for a winger.

let's actually keep it real:

1. players the caliber of guentzel are not rentals and expiring deals don't have this huge outcome on things.
2. it's either prefetti ++, or not dealing with Winnipeg.
3. IF guetnzel will be traded the price will be so high considering he still makes only 6mil and with retention could be THE best contract in the league.
4. IF guentzel will be traded he'll sign a 10x7 deal with the team he is being sent to or else no team will pay for what he is worth and there is no way dubas trades guentzel as a rental cuz at that point pens are just better keeping him for a last run and use cap space in the summer.

5. his value is: TOP tier prospect + a 1st round pick + good player

example: Nemec + 1st + McLeod
