I see both sides of this coin. On one Rutger’s move screams Ego trip that Winnipeg should just get him in the roster NOW doesn’t look good at all. Otherside; no path in 2 years?! Seems bizarre and wrong. We need to be younger and faster.
It all seems to Harken to losing Chisholm, Heinola not playing, scratching Perfetti. It’s all bizarre and frustrating.
Serious lack of young guns on this roster
With name and likeness, plus the all around perks, support, and lifestyle, it’s going to be hard for any contending team to retain top end NCAA hockey prospects. You really need the roster hole and ability to give the nhl minutes to lure them away from the negotiating power the rules give them. I don’t think this would be the case if they could sign asap like CHL/SHL draftees. It’s such a weird imbalance in negotiations. For the players: by taking this route they maximize their career earnings, look at Adam Fox, as well as lifestyle along the way.
Luckily for you guys, Chevy doesn’t burn people, seems to always get fair value when trading. I’m confident if he’s moved that you’ll be excited in what comes the other way.
