Thread: Jets arent done
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>SpiderSpiderSpider28</b></div><div>I think this is fairly close, but there'd have to be a couple of assumptions/changes made here:

1) Briere would have to be seriously convinced that Perfetti could be a Center long term in Philly

2) I think it'd have to be something other than Chibrikov if Perfetti were the main piece being sent back. I like him a ton as a prospect, but Philly has already expressed concerns regarding the size of their forward corp, so they're not giving up their best player in a package involving 2 guys who are 5'10

I very, very, very highly doubt TK is dealt at this point, but Perfetti would be the sort of guy I'd imagine would make Philly consider a deal</div></div>

I would agree with you for the most part. I think any TK deal would start with a similar return that Calgary got for Lindholm and then add more due to TK being under contract for next year.

I think Chibrikov is very interesting but as Spider mentions we have a ton of wingers especially undersized ones. I think in a Walker deal Philly is targeting that 2nd from Montreal and either a defenseman or center on the AHL team.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>smkruzik</b></div><div>I think you hold having letters to a much higher degree than you should. A letter doesn't make anyone untouchable. It doesn't add more value in terms of a return than not having one.

Not grading the deal; just saying letters aren't going to make or break a trade</div></div>

Having a letter is not the point he was just given the letter on February 16th. What team in their right mind goes and has a big press release to announce that they have added a new captain and alternate captain and then trades them 2 weeks later? That would be completely stupid. Honestly I think they gave TK a letter because they are trading their other alternate captain in Laughton. I could care less about the letter, it's the timing.
