What a haul for Andrew Copp.

Elias Salomonsson Scouting Report | Winnipeg Jets Prospects | WST Deep Dive

The guy didn't even really want to stay with us. Like they say in the video, he ultimately wanted to play for Detroit. Kudos to him. They are a great organization. Stevie Y was one of my childhood favs. I really liked him playing with us. Him and Lowry were great, they read off each other so well. Just imagine our third line today with him. Maybe I'm being a little nostalgic, our third line being the best in the league and all.

But what a haul we got for him. Chevy worked a little magic for sure. I mean we didn't get a Bedard, not for Copp, but what we got is good and potentially very good. We got, Morgan Barron, Brad Lambert, Elias Solomonsson and Thomas Milic. I know 3 out of the 4 have yet to land in the big leagues but they will and combined, the talent they will bring definitely outweigh that of what Copp was offering even if they don't make the teams top lines. Copp was a solid third liner, maybe second. Barron alone has that kind of potential. Lambo even more so I believe with that elite level speed. Salomonsson looks like the kind of D man we need, able to clear the front of the net and skate well. Not too sure about Milic. It's hard to see past Bucky.

Anyway, it's a really great haul for Andrew Copp. I was a bit surprised at how good of a deal it was when I saw the chart up in the video. Another fine job by our GM.

Mentioning fine jobs, I really think these two hosts, Connor Hrabchak and Lyss Houde, are doing a great job! I've been following their program for a while and they know their stuff and make great use of video. Maybe give them a little support, a little looksy.

Go Jets Go!!!
