Winnipeg isn't giving up Ehlers for a rental.

then extend him.

Even extended he's not worth Ehlers.

It would be a great trade for Winnipeg. Danault for 6 years and MTL 1st for Ehlers and a 3rd.

which is why he comes with the 16th pick in a good draft.

tatar as a rental still gets another piece, either a decent piece with no retention or Habs retain 50% for a better piece

i think it's fair given his playoffs. i agree that with retention that habs could get more but this roster is maxed out.

Playoffs or not, when was the last time a 60 point winger was trade for a late round 1st?

unique situation with the pandemic. a lot a teams are probably looking to move out a player and youre looking at a very likely shorted season next year so i expect all rental prices will drop.

Still too much for Danault and just moves the hole from center to wing and makes the Jets older. So still a no. At a reasonable price and with an extension the Jets might be interested, but Ehlers would not be involved.

Tatar better be extended

Edmonton won't be giving Montreal a 1st round pick for 1 year with Tatar. Besides, they won't be able to fit in Tatar's cap hit.

i was under the impression that's exactly what the jets are trying to do. they are very deep at wing but need a 2c and an upgrade on defense.

Yes, the Jets need to ADD a 2C to the top 6. Moving a top 6 winger for a top 6 center, just moves the hole from center to wing. That's the problem. Especially when it is a play driving winger like Ehlers.
