Seemingly out of no where, the Winnipeg Jets and top prospect Rutger McGroarty seem to be parting ways.

This kids going to be elite, and as much as I believe everyone should have to earn their spot, with a guy as good as this, just give him his shot, man.
Jets need to figure out their prospect management. Losing a guy like this. Unacceptable. How many times do we have to ruin our super good draft picks by not developing them properly, whilst also giving them NHL minutes. Heinola, Perfettis been mismanaged in my opinion, and now Rutger. Future captain we all thought.
This team appears to be notorious for not promoting talent. We are a draft and develop team and, while the window might be cracked, we need to get our players NHL playing time. GO JETS GO!
This is such a miff on the part of Jets management. Sure, earn your spot, but our conservativeness was not appropriate in this situation. Chevy is like Lloyd in Dumb and Dumber, at the end of the movie – opportunities knocking and he's busy giving directions. Sheeeesh.
I don't think the Jets are wrong to not GUARANTEE a spot to Rutger. If he won a spot over Appleton, Barron, Iafallo and was still with the Moose then he has every right to be upset. We get mad at the Ville situation because by every metric he should have gotten the opportunity that has gone to Stanley. No prospect has a right to an NHL roster spot. Ville is right to be mad because he's been stuck behind a worse player. Perfetti has a right to be mad because he was scratched during offensive woes while being a 20-goal scorer. What has Rutger done to earn the right to be mad before he ever competed for a Jets job for 1 second?
About time for jets fans to organize and start putting some pressure in management. That´s how things happen down here in Brazil, whenever team directors or managers start to make stupid decisions our "ultras" bring up a protest and make these people realize the team is not theirs only, they have to respect fans inteligence and make sure the team tries their best to retain good talent and players that have a good impact on the community and fan base.
Someone should tell Chippy: FAFO
Would not want to be a prospect in the Jets Org – what a fucked-up mess !!!
Chevy is nothing but a puppet to Chipman
Dang this sucks I would have loved to see Rutger play for the Jets but i guess that's not happening I think definitely gonna be a stud in the NHL
Tough days being a Winnipeg jets fans
If he`s going back to the NCAA, guarantee him a spot in 25-26,, competition is much higher in AHL,,,he can learn the system at least, your dreaming if you think you can keep him after his elc, hes already not a team player this puts the Ball in Chevys court tottally unless the right deal happens I`m guessing Chevy lets him play in the NCAA, THIS`LL fizzle out
i hope he can talk w arniel and arniel encourages him to join. I feel like bones had a play in saying he wont be guaranteed time, look at perfetti in the box.
