Eklund: You're the GM:The Summer of Seth Begins....Make a Pitch for Jones. Buzz@1

All the Maple Leafs for Seth Jones.

It would be a good start.

Jones is overrated AF.

To Ottawa:


Seth Jones


To CBJ:

Erik Brannstrom

2nd round pick

It Gave me great pleasure to watch the leafs choke yesterday. 18 years and 67 forever

Jones to Philadelphia for Sanheim and Frost

Jones plus a 1st and 2nd round picks for Marner

no franking thanks.

makar / toews / graves / byram / girard / timmins

team is pretty damn set on defense. jones and his overrated, overpaid ass can go elsewhere

Jones is overrated.

Jones is overrated,

no way the Avs should have any interest, the depth they have on D is very good. Giving up assets for Jones and then signing him to the dollars he would want would be very poor cap allocation.

as for Flyers,

offer Patrick to the desperate for Centers Jackets and this years 2nd. no more.

Straight up Willy Nylander for Seth Jones.

Nylander has term remaining, is signed to a tradeable contract and is coming off a strong playoff performance. He becomes a top line player for a team in need of a star up front.

Jones has 1 year remaining on his deal so short term cost savings for the Leafs, gives them a chance (unlikely) to resign him but flexibility cap wise after that and another strong piece to contend in 2022.

The two teams have made deals in the past and this one might fit both teams. Would probably require Dubas to be replaced to make it happen though, he did promise Willy that he wouldn't be moved.

marner

Um, Columbus would take that for sure, especially because Seth Jones is a UFA in just a few weeks.

Ghost and a 1st lol

I was thinking Philly backed off on sacrificing assets for Ekholm and Ellis for two reasons:

1) They weren't a contender and likely would have missed the playoffs anyway.

2) Adding a d-man would just make their expansion draft approach even more difficult and lead to a more valuable player being lost.

But sure, maybe it's all about Seth Jones.

P.S. Who is Freedman?

better question yet , who else is leaving, seriously first Panarin, then PLD, followed by Torts now Jones. At this stage I don't know if I should laugh or cry at this trend.

To Pitt:
Seth Jones

To Columbus:

Bryan Rust
John Marino
1st round pick

Not sure Pens want to give Rust his next contract (he is 30), Marino is young, lots of promise and is signed for next 5 years at 4.4M and is RH D as well. Money Jones gets on next deal matches what these two likely to make. This lets Columbus retool with two good players and Pens create two solid D pairings anchored by Jones and Letang respectively that can share the load.

Marner, Dermott

For

Jones, Korpisalo

Assuming leafs can talk to Jones about an extension ahead of time.

I wouldnt make a pitch. Jones is incredibly overrated based on name value, when in reality he's been on a decline ever since he peaked in 2017. Somebody is going to massively overpay and will end up regretting it

To NJ Devils:
* Jones
* 2021 3rd Rd Pick

To Columbus:
* 2021 1st Rd (from Islanders)
* Reilly Walsh
* Janne Kuokkanen

Connor Murphy, Dylan Strome, Ian Mitchell and 2nd round pick 21 for Seth Jones and Nathan Gerbe.

Broberg
Edmonton first 2021
Kassian
Conditional second 2022 if resigns.

Jones to Edmonton although I put his cap hit at 9 at the most in a flat cap world and wouldn't want him on the team for more.
