Blackhawks: I can't see them doing that trade, as the new Chicago GM wants to rebuild the team. The term of Wheeler and Schmidt don't fit that view and Toews only has one year left on his contract after this one.

Senators: Jets decline, with Cheveldayoff telling LeBrun, "I spent a long time trying to get top-two centremen like we have right now with Scheif and (Pierre-Luc) Dubois. That’s a real tough combination when we’re going well to play against"

Flyers: Jets decline. No chance the Jets have any chance of making the playoffs in the near term without Hellebuyck.

Blue Jackets: Not sure what the thought process is behind that trade idea.

Maple Leafs: Jets decline. No need to move Berdin, let him continue to develop on the Moose.

That'll be a no from the Jackets. Goaltending is not a need, and while we would do a change-of-scenery trade for Bemstrom we're not taking a downgrade (he's scoring at nearly double the rate Harkins is and is two years younger).

Ottawa says no, we really don’t need Schielfle and while it’s okay value we shouldn’t give up futures for a guy that does fit our timeline. A trade has to make sense for both sides, it somehow does not for either.

VERY hard pass from the Hawks. We don't want Wheeler.

Very conflicting for Ottawa as Scheifele has been one of my favorite non-Sens player. That asking price is kinda fair too, not exaggerated like you often see on HF (it would be + Pinto + 1st in 2022 + 2nd)

However I am super high on Greig. He's literally the next Brad Marchand. Ok he will not be as good but if he can just be 60-70% of Marchand, that's a very highly valuable player

Problem here is Scheifele has only 2 years left and will be 30+

Good proposal if it makes you hesitate

Tkachuk - Norris - Batherson
Formenton - Stutzle - Scheifele
Paul - Pinto - Brown

Pretty bad trades across the board for the Jets.

Jets problem is they are 2 years away from losing several core players (Scheifele, Hellebuyck, Wheeler, De Melo). The injury excuse is valid for the team's struggles this year, but they have been struggling from mediocrity (the minuses behind Scheifele and Wheeler's stat line, and Hellebuyck has leveled off this year) for some time. Another year of medicority pushes the team to trading players whose value could further depreciate. At this point with the investment that was made this year I think this team needs a shakeup. Dubois is ready to take over the reigns as #1 C, and I don't think Scheifele is ready to become second fiddle, so unless you make him a winger on the top line, I think it's time to change things up. I don't think the changes will be this drastic, True North has only traded when forced to, but I do think this team needs some fresh young legs to make them as exciting as they were in 2017-2018
