Not really a fan of either of these moves for the Jets at all.
Copp alone would return a 1st round pick if we traded him. We can't protect Graves and Heinola has top pair upside on an ELC. If we traded him it wouldn't be for another LHD.
Our window to win is now so moving Dubois, who has shown he can dominate at the NHL level for a guy that has "dominated" at the AHL level at a rate of 0.7 PPG but would make him potentially our 3rd best AHL C behind Perfetti .81 PPG this season and Gus who put of .86 PPG this year. Nolan Patrick is a real wild card and a bottom pair RHD that we can find in UFA for less money.
Both deals IMO leave us as a worse team.
Then we're paying Seattle a 2nd so that they don't pick our bottom pair D Logan Stanley (so we can keep Samberg in the pressbox) or our 4th line RW? If that's where you're going to play those guys just let Seattle pick who they want and keep our 2nd.
