Description

In this scenario, Rutger McGroarty says he doesnt want to sign in Winnipeg so they decide to move him before his rights expire. He says he's going back to college but after his rights are traded to Chicago, he decides to go pro.

Jets get to move Schmidt instead of buyout. Get AA back to help with immediate roster (could be a 3rd round pick instead if they preferred), plus get a solid prospect and 2nd round pick.

McGroarty and Nazar both play 10 games or so at NHL level before being sent to Rockford to tune their craft. Anderson/Raddysh take their place on roster.

They will get a better return than that.

1st rounder instead of 2nd? Two 2nd round picks? Thoughts?

Not even in the ballpark and also, McGroarty is 100% signing in WPG after his Junior year when the Jets have more roster turnover.

Yeah someone is not understanding of the situation whatsoever lol. Whatever you'd trade nazar add a 2nd and that's what it would be fair even tho jets don't trade him whatsoever. Still time to delete this btw
