The Winnipeg Jets can't seem to catch a break regarding their top prospect Rutger McGroarty.

"At least two other teams thought they had a deal for Rutger McGroarty during the first round of the draft. One of them, to my knowledge, was put off by the idea that his hope was a clear path to NHL playing time"

The "red flagged" disgruntled prospect is facing tons of scrutiny as of late due to reported attitude issues.
The critiques reached their pinnacle after leaked rumours surfaced regarding Rutger McGroarty making ridiculous demands to the Montreal Canadiens in what could have been a beneficial trade for the Jets.
The rumours entailed a specific amount of playing time and a guaranteed spot on the Habs power play. Sources are now speculating if all this drama has caused the young prospects value to completely diminish. So what do the Jets do in this situation?
Jets and Kevin Cheveldayoff could patiently wait this out until next season and potentially the trade deadline, to where they would then make a deal and McGroarty would be able to sign with the team that acquires him and head straight into the NHL, fulfilling his wish.
