From what I have been hearing about his attitude, wanting guarantees for spot on the roster and playing time, Hughes needs to stay far away from this player. He's a nobody, and has done nothing to warrant making any demands
I agree, everything I hear about McGroarty is just speculation. This kid hasn't prove anything yet and the Jets are asking way too much. Jordan Harris has 131 NHL games under his belt with a differential of -5 with a bottom tier team like the Habs. Adding Mesar or the pick should be more than enough.
MAYBE - but when a player makes a public statement that he wants "OUT"....the less likely his team is going to receive even equal compensation in return on a trade basis (especially for an unproven player) - just a fact of such a matter
@@LockedOnJetsNHL He did well with PLD. This might be more of the same, but this time with a PLD 2.0 who hasn't even played an NHL game yet. He should get the Jets some solid assets, but probably not from Montreal. There are too many other options for the Habs top six at play elsewhere to take a chance on someone with an attitude that you are unsure of. The Jets could address this by giving any interested teams permission to talk to the kid.
Oh, the whole thing is that Rutger's camp has to okay the destination and confirm he'd sign with the team before the trade goes through. They're definitely doing that last part. No one is trading for him if they don't have a commitment to sign.
Not particularly! Harris could be interesting, but they're both in the 5/6D range. Winnipeg already has better blueliners in their system. Mesar would be the most interesting piece there and he hasn't quite taken the step forward yet you'd be looking for.
@@LockedOnJetsNHL Harris is already a 5/6D. That is his 100% certified floor. Are you saying that this is also his ceiling? These are still prospects. Btw, Rutger's ceiling is a 2nd line forward. But his floor is somewhat tbd given the absence of any NHL play. Who says he doesn't end up a perpetual AHLer?
@@vincentd.2284 Harris is less of a prospect at this stage. He's 24. Barron technically could be considered a prospect, but starting to push it. Best case is one of them becomes a #4 but that might be a lot to ask for.
Here's the the thing, though. The kid appears to be doing a pretty good job of trying to decrease his market value. Maybe Montreal can give him the power play time and top-six role he seems to think he should walk into after the trade. But not many teams other than Montreal are in that position...and perhaps not even Montreal at this stage of its rebuild. There may be a bigger and better deal out there. But there's also a reasonable chance that the return for the Jets might end up being less than what the Habs offered here.
It's definitely a delicate balancing act. One thing that's been true for a lot of the guys who've forced their way out of Winnipeg is that the grass wasn't always green on the other side either. Nothing like some drama to carry on through a quiet off-season!
I feel like he'd be a really good fit in Detroit. His whole trackable hockey career has been in Michigan.. To Detroit - Rutger Mcgroarty // To Winnipeg - Joe Veleno, Jakub Rychlovský, Anton Johansson, 2025 3rd Feel like it would be pretty fair, Rychlovsky was czech league top scorer at 22. Anton was on WJC team for sweden and had 4p in 7 SHL playoffs games 6'4 skates well, solid defensively and is only 20. Veleno young solid bottom 6 player. Could make the third a second. But witn Mcgroarty basically forcing his way out I feel like that pretty fair value..
Harrison: Which of the rumored teams interested in McGroarty would you like to see the Jet's do a deal with, and what would you like the specific return to be? Is there no one that Montreal has that interests you for McGroarty, or does Montreal indeed have players you like, but it's just Montreal isn't willing to part with them?
@@LockedOnJetsNHL Are you fvcking serious. We are talking about a player who has proven shit so far in the NHL vs 2 well established players like Zegras and Necas rofl. You Jets fans are really delulus. Keep dreaming that will never happened.
Zegras or Necas, both established players in the league, straight up for a 20yr that has ZERO NHL time, and thinks he can dictate how much ice time and where on the team he can play? Good luck with that. Habs offered too much for him IMHO, not worth the package they offered. The package they offered wouldn't get a trade done for either Zegras or Necas, neither of those 2 teams are going to trade them straight up 1 for 1 for McGroarty.
No GM would trade a Zegras or Necas for someone who hasn't played a game. It's laughable that you think this would be even close to a fair trade. Zegras can be a 70 point player, already has a 65 point season under his belt.
This is the perfect example of fans overvaluing their team's players/prospects. I see some Habs fans saying this package would be overpay for RM, but if the CGY/FLA pick ends up being FLA picks and so probably late first then IMO it wouldn't be overpaying. But saying that Jets should get a pick around 14-15 + B prospect + B player for RM, who was picked 14 overall 2 years ago and as for as I understand isn't now someone who most people think should have gone significantly higher and who asked to be traded which means his value actually decreased. Thinking that the Jets should get such a huge return is insane. Just look at what Buffalo got for Matt Savoie, who was picked higher than RM the same year and didn't ask to be traded, sure Buffalo probably should've gotten more but still I don't see why RM should bring more.
If this is what the Habs offered then I am glad that it did not work out. McGroarty isn't worth that much. The kids sounds a lot of trouble. Even stars don't demand guarantees like he is asking. In the NHL you have to earn your minutes, even veterans.
If McGroarty has told all teams he wants gaurenteed NHL roster spot. Hes the fool in all of this. Everyone wants their prospects to earn their spots. Exactly why Chicago filled up on July 1. Even when rebuidling, theyre not just handing out roster spots.
Hey ...wake up ..McG ty ...has NEVER PLAYED even 1 NHL GAME ..!! TOTAL B.S. to ask more than what the Habs offered ..!! Keep asking ...but no G.M.is THAT stupid ..!!
I'm pretty sure that the Habs were right to offer a "modest" offer for Dubois. You saw how it turned out for him in LA right? Winnipeg drafted Rutger 12th and he hasn't played in the NHL. Now he is demanding top 6 minutes and is asking for a trade out. What has this guy done to increase his value??
On that last part, you'd think haha, but NHL teams have been shown to make some veryyyy questionable decisions! Maybe the Kings still want to do another deal LOL.
McGroarty has not proven himself yet in the NHL . Mesar is a first round pick , Barron is a first round pick, plus giving Florida first round pick. Winnipeg is pushing there luck !
Montreal is not trading that much for this idiot and clearly he is because he has never played a game in the NHL and he is already whining about wanting a trade because he wants to pick when and where he plays.
Harris, Mesar and, a first round pick is already an overpay and it's fine by me to get the trade done since we can afford to right now, but that Winnipeg refuses this makes me want to tell them to take a hike. They are being way too greedy for a player that doesn't even want to be there.
Agree - AND, when a player makes a public statement that he wants "OUT"....the less likely his team is going to receive even equal compensation in return on a trade basis
The Habs are overpaying only because they drafted too heavy for the back end and didn't balance with forwards . They clearly want to unload excess assets without taking too much flack from the fans .. A first round pick and two solid NHL D's for a disgruntled forward without NHL experience is crazy ... Frankly I don't believe Habs put that much on the table !
Jordan Harris is a solid two way defenseman who just turned 24, he is not flashy but almost always makes the right play, he will probably top out at a 3 or 4 dman with a floor of 5 or 6. Barron has higher upside but plays a completely different game, he is more of a high risk high reward type player and tends to have defensive gaffs. Mesar has some interesting potential, he has struggled with the NA ice but has shown flashes of a top 6 forward. So the Jets turned down a right now 5 or 6 Dman with potential for 3 or 4, a potential top 6 forward who has shown flashes of being very good, and a 20 to 32 first round draft pick. All for a forward who is a diva, has shown nothing to warrant this type of return and doesn't really fit the culture in montreal. Personally I am happy this trade did not happen.
Hope the jets don't trade him..don't want him on the habs..his stats are not that great what's the big deal. And demanding a NHL spot with significant ice time..don't want to earn anything..seems like a PLD attitude..and a family like lindros..good riddance.lets see in a couple years when he's humbled and not even close to a NHL star ⭐...
Habs should avoid McGroarty drafted #14 in 2022 because of his attitude. Owen Beck also drafted in 2022 #33 is already superior to McGroarty, who is overrated. Habs have a similar player in Joshua Roy 6'0'', 190lbs, drafted in 2021 shoots left also and is garanteed great 3rd line or good 2nd line left wing and has bigger potential than McGroarty and Roy loves Mtl. I would play Mesar in Laval next season in top6 and trade him for 2025 2nd round pick. I would trade Jordan Harris for 2nd or 3rd round pick 2025. I would trade both of those 2nd picks for a 1st round pick 2025. Since Habs won't make won't make the playoffs next season 24-25, if Armia and Dvorak are health, I would trade them for 2nd or 3rd round picks in 2025. And then I would trade also trade both of these picks for 1 pick in 1st round if possible. Can you just imagine if Habs would have 4 first round picks in 2025? Habs would be set for the a very long time with great talent...
Just another bs rumor. 3 first round picks for a guy that's done nothing at a pro level. Both those players are former 1st and another first on top of that tells you right away that it's bs. Why would Montreal way over pay for some guy that's never played a game in the NHL and he is already whining about wanting a trade cause he wants to pick when and where he will play.
A prospect, a roster and a pick for a prospect? Is this supposed to be comedy? There is no guarantee this guy will ever be a roster player, and any team would be foolish to offer more than a prospect "or" a pick!
Such a primitive, brainless take. Not all prospects are equal to each other. McGroarty was a 14th OA that has increased his value post-draft. In your simple mind, you think flipping a prospect, regardless of prospect value, is considered fair? 😂
@@Guffman30 He's trying to point out the obvious to you so that you slowly realize that you have the mental capacity of a dead mule, without hurting your feelings.
@@nathanadrian7797 Almost no prospect is guaranteed to be a top 6 player. Cool, whatever.

That pick is basically going to be a very high second rounder in equivalent value. Rutger may be looking to leave, but important to remember that multiple teams are interested in him and likely want to sort this out before they have to compete for a signature in free agency.

Hughes should stay as far away from this as he can
Habs can guarantee a middle 6 spot to McGroarty, so it makes sense for the player. Jets should pull the trigger if they can push for a better d prospect like Mailloux + late 1st round.If Jets let McGroarty back to school, it is over, they get nothing.
@@reign2204 not true. if he goes back to school this year, he stays with Michigan until graduation, then sign as free agent with any team. there is no chance he signs with jets for 3 years when he can be free agent in 1 year. michigan will pay him more than his elc salary. also he can graduate by the end of next summer if he just takes easy classes.
As a Habs fan, i am on the fence for this guy. He’s not a 1st liner, i see his ceiling as a 2nd line and floor as a 4th liner. Wary of an overpay as he has a similar profile to Ryan Poehling, maybe a higher hockey IQ
