<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Windjammer</b></div><div>Yeah, the biggest factor would be where the 23 pick is. As you say, if there is someone at that pick the Jets really want, it's a big difference. I just think it extremely unlikely the Jets would accept so many picks in the package while also having to wait 2 drafts for one pick and 3 for another.

I think the Jets would just opt to move him somewhere for a similar first and better/closer to helping the team prospects. I can't see it being hard to find a similar package with more ready parts elsewhere.</div></div>

Honestly, if a Yager or Dvorasky drop and are available at that spot, I’d be Ok with Barron. Swap in Dach, drop a secondary pick and swing for Reinbacher. He looked phenomenal at the Juniors. I think a lot hinge on the TDL and the playoff run we have. If we do well, the team gels we and go on a deep run and PLD gets a taste of it, I think he may resign, at least a short deal, knowing he would be quite a few years away from those with Montreal.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>njlaforte</b></div><div>That is a better package for Dubois than Dvorak and a 2nd... but still doesn't cut it. Need a young NHLer, not just Barron.</div></div>

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Windjammer</b></div><div>The first in 23 is a good start, but Barron and the remainder need to be replaced by players/prospects Winnipeg needs.</div></div>

I think that’s a good package. Barron is a young RHD with term, who looks like he might be a decent T4. If that FLA pick is in the 8-12 range, although depending on who is there at that pick, I’d be ok with, say Dach instead and adjusting the additional picks accordingly, maybe drop the 2nd or 3rd. Someone inevitably drops in the draft and we would/should snag a steal with that pick. Lots of potential in that range and would help us recover some picks if we sell our 1st this year at the deadline for a run and know PLD won’t re-up. Add in the 25’ 1st and that’s a good offer.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Benzino204</b></div><div>Montreal got a 1st round pick, a 5th, and a former 3rd for Ben Chiarot, who played in Florida for what 17 games?

The Rangers gave up a 1st, a 2nd, a prospect, and a 5th for a couple months of Andrew Copp.

Even if PLD will be a UFA in two years, there is absolutely no way the Jets will trade PLD to Montreal to appease him and get the scrubs a lot of these Habs fans offer. If he does get traded, they can still trade him to another team and get something like a 1st, a roster player, and a top prospect even if he's at his new destination for only a year.</div></div>

Conditions worked out perfectly in the favor of the team getting those picks. **** like that doesn’t normally happen. No one thought Florida would trade Hub and Weegar AND hire PoMo in the off season and who would have thought NY would make it to the conference finals.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>MisstheWhalers</b></div><div>Florida's pick will likely be somewhere in the 10-16 spot.

Honestly the Jets will get for Dubois (if he's traded) the same as Copp and Stastny except the prospect involved will be better then Barron and Foley.</div></div>

This. As a more realistic Jets fan I expect something similar to Trouba, a prospect (or roster player) of varying potential based upon where that 1st lands and who is available at that spot.
This whole thing has been tainted much like the Trouba situation and their agents opening their far ****ing mouths and regardless of PLDs ACTUAL intentions, it has and will affect his return. The return at the draft from Montreal will be a similar return if he went to a contender as a rental.
