Winnipeg isn't selling that low on McGroarty.
Boston isn't trading Poitras.

Don’t you think it’s hard to properly grade someone (McGoarty) who has never played in the NHL?
What is his value?

He's a top prospect that is in high demand, so he must be pretty good.
Are you contending that all of the 24 draft picks have little value because they haven't played in the NHL yet? I think NHL GM's disagree with you.

That is NOT what I was implying. What I was saying is that it’s really hard to put proper value on players that never played in the NHL. That doesn’t mean they have no to little value! Think about Patrik Stefan went first overall or Yakupov or Daigle. Highly valued prospects. But didn’t amount to what was expected or thought they would.
I do think McGoarty’s game and style will translate well in the NHL. But there is no guarantee.
He is a high rated prospect. So trading him would be hard, cause value. How does he value to other teams. What are they going to give up? What are the Jets expecting to get?
I throw trades out in here for fun. That’s it.

Okay. Well you asked, so I wasn't sure. He'd be evaluated just like any other prospect so it seemed like a superfluous comment to rationalize your offers.
The Jets will either look for a similar aged and skilled prospect or a young NHL ready player that fills a need.
We'll probably need to wait until at least the TDL to find out.

One way to gauge a players value if you’re not overly familiar with them is Capfriendly.
McGroarty isn’t on there yet since he’s not under contract, but Robertson is, and he’s rated as a 79 / 3rd liner.
Given that McGroarty is highly sought after, you could reasonably assume you wouldn’t get him with Robertson.
