Description
Would Winnipeg make a deal like this? They really need a player like Girard. This also leaves space to improve the bottom six and to make the signings they have to make the following season.

Additional Details:
I don't know that the Avs add because the Jets get an extra year of Girard and some cap relief to pursue FA's. This feels like a legit "hockey trade"

Add how much? A 3rd, a player like Kaut? Agree Connor is underrated but Girard fills a need for them, he's young and cost-controlled so it's pretty close.

Love Girard but Conner is a goal scoring machine. Value wise Colorado adds but I can't see him moving anytime soon.

AVs 100% add, And with adding Connor's $7,142,857 good luck affording MacKinnons $11,000,000 to $12,000,000 per long term in a year.

Easily but the Jets have other needs and Girard fills one of them.

Go look at the long-term. With EJ coming off the books when Mac is up, it's no problem to sign him to $12M.

2nd + level A- prospect (like not top tier but still very solid) I'd say but not sure if he would be even on the market

I didn't mean in comparison to Connor, I meant that the Jets would't be taking on a 30 y/o guy with a bunch of term left

Don't see how this helps the jets much. They have Morrissey, Schmidt, Dillon, Heinola and Samberg as left handed defenseman. Yes I know Girard can play the right side but I don't see how he really improves their defence all that much for what they give up.

You've Burakovsky and possibly Kadri to resign, plus give new contracts to Newhook and Byram along with Connor $7,142,857 on top of it. You wont have as much as you think. especially once you lockup all your pending RFAs and UFA this coming summer.

Connor is more valuable than Girard, I don't know why Jets need trade him.

This ACGM clearly assumes the Avs are not re-signing Bura or Naz

So you’re telling me Winnipeg is going to trade one of the best goal scorers in the league to a division rival, for another left handed defenseman. Yeah no, that’s definitely not going to happen. The jets already have Morrissey, Schmidt, Dillon, Samberg, Heinola, Chisholm and Stanley who are all LHD. Jets would never trade Connor to a division rival. If COL really wanted him they’d have to give up a piece that’s as valuable to them as Connor is to Winnipeg.

They may not need to trade him but they do have other obvious needs to fill and this deal would do it, at least in part. Were the Jets to be in the market to trade Connor, I'm sure the Avs would be happy to add a bit to get him.

Yeah, that makes sense but I will say that Girard plays the right side pretty well and is better than most of those guys you mention.

I know he’s better than most of them, but still he doesn’t really fill a need. We already have Schmidt who plays the right side too. Connor is one of the last players that would be traded. You’d have better luck trading for Scheifele to replace Kadri if he priced himself out.

Newhook is Kadri's replacement so no need for Scheifele

No chance from Winnipeg. An unneeded LD doesn't make the Jets think about it.

Idk like Alex Newhook and two firsts would be the start and work from there
