Murphy is decent, I would be fine with the leafs trading this package for him, but I’m not sure if Chicago would accept as they already traded Gustaffson and Keith and Seabrook just aren’t the players they used to be. They don’t really have much depth on defence is my point.

Vesalainen for logan brown.

Jets get their centre, Sens get winger to play with the depth at centre they will have after draft.

No thanks from Winnipeg. The Jets don't need a 3-4C.

I like Brown and with his size I think he could develop into a top 3 center, given time which is what he would get with with Jets. Its just that the Jets have a few 3/ 4 centers and what they really need a #2. If trading Ves I would like the Jets to bundle him with another play (s) or draft picks to get a true #2 center. Maybe sign TB's Cirelli to a RFA offer sheet which the Jets wouldn't do. The trade is fair but would it really make the Jets better?

WPG: Vesalainen
EDM: Pulujarvi

Why would the Jets trade a very good prospect for a malcontent who thinks he's a top 6 forward? Is he better than Connor, Laine, Ehlers or Wheeler? I like Pully but he's worth at best a 2nd round pick and that's being generous.

Puljujarvi isn't worth Vesalainen. Why would the Jets overpay to get a player that they have zero need of and is at best a 3rd line forward for Winnipeg?

07 Jul 2020 11:24:14
They are both wingers, so your argument that Puljujarvi would only be playing 3rd line is meaningless, as that's where Vesalainen would be playing too.

Less than a year age difference but Puljujarvi has over 130 more NHL games played than Vesalainen. Puljujarvi was a point a game player in his league last year, while Vesalainen wasn't even half that. Even if you compare AHL numbers Puljujarvi has better numbers 37 pts in 53 games vs 43 in 82 for Vesalainen.

So please, explain to me why exactly Vesalainen is a better prospect than Puljujarvi? Because it doesn't look that way. I can understand saying you don't want him because he is a malcontent and holdout. But to say that he will only ever he a 3rd line player and is worse prospect than Vesalainen doesn't hold true and is just typical Winnipeg wieners being weenies.

Pully has played over 130 games, some games on McD and Draisaitl's wing and still did nothing. Unlike the Oilers who rush players into the NHL the Jets in typical Jet fashion are letting Ves learn the North American game with the Moose, so in the long run he should develop into a better player. Also Pully's not playing in North America isn't the same as the game he plays in Finland and there still is his attitude which is something no team really wants to deal with. Plus with Maurice as his coach he would be starting on the 4th line which he wouldn't want to do. He would refuse to be sent down to the Moose and if he did the Jets would risk having some team claim him off wavers so the Jets would get nothing in trading for him. No Memarcusjoe and I understand hockey and the Jets needs unlike some posters.

It's pointless to try and give reasoned explanations to a troll Islandjet. Common sense is not common for him.

07 Jul 2020 17:20:49
Memarcusjoe I know its pointless to try and reason with some some posters but there are others that appreciate thought out explanations of why some Jet trades are not wise to do from the Jets point of view.

07 Jul 2020 17:39:52
I agree Islandjet. I just meant in this particular case, where he wants us to defend a statement that neither of us made. He prefers to base his argument on something that he wants us to have said rather than address what we actually said.

**freeing cap trade**

Flo: Johnsson
Tor: Brown and Wallmark

Then trade Kerfoot for pics and sign ufa RHD to play top pair

06 Jul 2020 13:27:47
Why would the leafs do that?
