Not a chance. Playing great hockey. If anything we’d add a d for depth.

Only in the Bizarro world does that trade even get offered.  Chevy would be lynched for doing a trade like that.

do they have to sign him just before they play the jets?

also oh those poor five teams

UFA. Wants to play to earn another contract. Legal issues are what they are. 

I would rather someone with term, though. 

He’d be fine depth. He wants to play though. Who does he play ahead of?  No issue with his legal stuff as it’s finaxial, no?  He needs a big contract. 

If he came cheap sure. But rental makes sense only if they are cheap or are so good as to make the difference.

Doesn't make sense for CBJ to trade him. They're adding now for the playoffs. They need depth, unless he's a problem, like Kane was in Winnipeg. 

Not to say the issues are the same, just that he's a problem in current situation.

He’s asked to be traded but you’d think they’d keep him for the playoffs. 

Saw some mention of Paul Stastny as someone jets might like. Hard to see Blues doing that even if they are in free fall

Hutch asked to be traded but I wouldn't if I were Chevy. 

Talk of Vegas being in on Karlsson. Could take Ryan too. That would make Vegas very very formidable.

I don't like that at all. Ryan needs to stay in Ottawa as a reminder of what a dumpster fire they are. 4 seasons left on that monstrosity of a contract. And, with only two seasons left on the Ryan contract, a reminder for Quebecor of what they've inherited in their newly acquired, Quebec Nordiques franchise. 

Karlsson is one of the best defensemen in the league and the best when healthy. When healthy. Every team would be lucky to have him. 

But his health? What's left in his ankle? I would be scared to death to offer him a longterm contract. I suppose there is always LTIR.

What's the deal with his cousin Lars William who is already on the GK?  That kid was essentially picked up for nothing from Columbus, and now is lighting it up this year.  How did that happen?

Quote

On 21 June 2017, Karlsson was exposed by the Blue Jackets and selected by the Vegas Golden Knights in the 2017 NHL Expansion Draft. The Blue Jackets traded a first-round pick, a second-round pick in 2019, and the contract of injured forward David Clarkson to Vegas with the agreement that the Golden Knights would select Karlsson.^[6]

That was a crazy trade for Vegas. To get paid all that to pick a really good player? Geeez.

I was trying to understand how that happened.  That would be like trading Petan for Kucherov plus Tampa's first round pick.  

Vegas pulled off some real heists.

Who was Columbus trying to protect from being taken in the expansion draft?

I don't see the Jets missing out on any of these deals....  most of these guys are way past their prime and would do little to nothing for our club.    Why in the world would we give up a Connor or Roslovic to Montreal for a guy that may be a smidge better then Hendricks?

I believe they wanted to protect against losing Josh Anderson.  Young physical winger, but I'm guessing he tops out as a 3rd liner.  No logic at all.
