WOW…that’s really bad for Calgary
Would cost a lot..A LOT… more for those 2 and that’s assuming the Flames would be willing to move Andersson, which they aren’t.

Andersson isn't available and that's not nearly enough

From Winnipeg's side, Perfetti isn't remotely available.

The first part of the trade is essentially Perfetti for Anderson with the Jets overpaying a bit.

Perfetti’s floor is a point per game forward who’s very solid defensively. I hate to give him up, but the Flames are going to want a young, high quality NHL player and Perfetti is it. Moreover, if Perfetti is a winger with the Jets, I see Chibrikov as his internal replacement. If it’s centre, Lambert could be that guy.

I see the Stanley, Lucius and Schmidt for rental Lindholm as being a slight underpay considering the retained salary and the inclusion of Schmidt who’s a bit of a salary dump component in the deal.

The trade all together ends up fair for both sides.

Again, I hate to give up Perfetti, but I see Anderson as being a good D partner for Morrissey and he has some term left on his contract (3 years) that lines up well with the Jets’ competitive window.

Lindholm fills the Jets’ need for a 2C and, if he meshes with his wingers, perhaps he signs an extension here.

Perfettis floor is not a PPG 2 way forward lmao.

i dont think either team would say yes to this trade. calgary should want to extort some more high quality pieces from another team and jets giving up perfetti would hurt us long term. hes been a huge part of our secondary scoring (and therefore our success this season). i wouldnt trade him away just for the chance at re-signing lindholm, hes a homegrown prospect thats producing, and is a part of the future for many more years than lindholm could be

1st round pick (10th overall) and in his second season at just 21 years old. Yes, his floor is point per game player and you haven’t seen him enough to know. This is why no Jets fan wants him included in the trade. Earlier this season, he was the highest pts per 60 min player on the entire team, and he was also one of the best in defensive metrics for forwards already as well.

He’s likely going to be a fantastic two way centre that routinely puts up a point per game or higher but he is a little behind the rest of the Jets’ forwards, so he’s the carrot I see Chevy dangling to get the pieces that will put the team over the top.

You don't know what floor means do you?? If perfetti actually had a "floor" of a PPG 2 way winger you wouldn't be selling him for ANYTHING

Why are we selling Perfetti? That kid is gonna be minimum 1ppg for like a decade starting next season. Winnipeg can't afford to trade away years of team control on star players.

Andersson would be Morrissey’s D partner on the top pair for the rest of this season plus two more at a reasonable cap hit.

Lindholm gives the Jets a decent 2C that’s probably above average defensively for their cup run this season with the chance he could be extended if he proves to be a good fit.

You have to give up quality to get quality, so that’s why Perfetti is included in the trade.

Jets fans don’t want to give him up because his floor is point per game, but on a top line with other talented players he could be a 100 point guy.
