Great reasoning on all moves. As a fan of both the Jets and Caps, I think this trade favors the Caps. Dubios is a very good, young player and I don't think he'd get moved for 1st round picks which will hopefully be the 32nd picks in the next few drafts lol (wishful thinking as a Caps fan) and Lapierre who is a very good young player in his own right, but very unproven.
My opinion could change if Dubios is not looking to sign here long term obviously. The hope around Winnipeg at least in my view is Schiefele gets moved, build the offence around Dubios, Connor & Ehlers. If Dubios wants out, Chevy has proved that he's not afraid to move on given the right price (Trouba, Laine...)
Overall, I like a lot of the moves you made as a Capitals fan, I'm just not sure the Jets accept unless Dubios won't sign. I would also like to save a bit more cap space so we don't have issues when Willy comes back.
