Breaking news out of Winnipeg as sources have confirmed the Winnipeg Jets have turned down a blockbuster trade from the Montreal Canadiens.
"Filip Mesar was offered as part of a trade aimed at acquiring Rutger McGroarty from the Winnipeg Jets."
The reported proposed trade was Filip Mesar, Justin Barron or Jordan Harris, and 2025 draft picks in exchange for Jets top prospect Rutger McGroarty.
This trade rejection by the Jets gets even more confusing as reports also confirmed that Rutger McGroarty and his camp made specific demands to the Canadiens that entailed a certain amount of playing time and a spot on their power play.
The trade makes sense to a certain, as both Mesar and McGroarty are first round picks. But Canadiens fans seemed upset at the proposed trade as offering 2025 draft picks and their top defensive prospect Justin Barron included in the deal was too big of a price.
The drama intensifies now and all eyes will be on Kevin Cheveldayoff to see what he can come up with regarding trading away Rutger Mcgroarty.
