Interested to see return but could be a great pickup by the pens. Reload on the fly, so picks arent worth much to them right now.

That is some name. You'd think I'd have heard of him.

If the jets could somehow swing Yager? that would be awesome. Saskatoon boy so he would get to be close to home

Edit: Nice

Maybe he gets a chance with Sid or Geno. Quite the upgrade for the kid (assuming he makes the big club).

A guy named Yager on the Jets seems fitting. Honestly good deal for the Jets I think.

not getting a great prospect to sign sucks, but Yager is one hell of a consolation prize.

Huh. Both were 14th overall picks. That's kinda neat.

I really liked Yager in his draft year, and I don't know much about McGroarty - but it's neat to see the 2023 14th overall pick get traded for the 2022 14th overall pick.

*Edit - friggin' Jiri even used the word "neat". That's a hard Fata on me.

FWIW, Wheeler had McGroarty at 33 and Yager at 58 in his top 100 drafted NHL prospects a few weeks ago.

Reported the Wild were offering the 2024 13th OA pick for McGroarty but pulled out when Buium fell to 12 and they traded up to grab Buium.

Yager is a centre and 1 year younger, for that I see this as a win for Winnipeg.
