Keep telling yourself that if it helps you sleep at night, and go ahead and try more offer sheets and see how they work out. The poster here is spot on, Montreal will have plenty of RFA's of their own to worry about and the thought no one wants to play for the Jets is nonsense. It's all about GREEN for many players.
Worrying about RFA's isn't only a factor when you're expecting an offer sheet in retribution.
Montreal will still have those concerns with their own RFA's whether or not they go the offer sheet route.
They simply may be more incentivized to get players signed to extensions early, before an offer sheet becomes an option.
(Not saying they should go that route, but if you're prepared to do so, you're prepared for the possibility of that team attempting to poach one of your players.)
The KK offer sheet was indeed embarrassing for Bergevin, but mostly because he allowed it to get to that point. He plays hardball in negotiations for players that don't match his preferred profile. He tacks on $500k or more for players he likes and deducts it from players he doesn't.
Pivoting to Dvorak had the potential to be a win. He was widely viewed as a breakout candidate as a 2C in a new situation. It didn't work out as expected, but it's not like KK has either.
