Mark Scheifele will command a lot on the trade market if he is moved and a top team may have balked at the price.

Bruins May Be Out On Scheifele

In a recent article by NHL Trade Talk, they went over the possibility of Mark Scheifele heading to the Bruins and how the likelihood is ever-decreasing citing multiple insiders.

"Insiders like Ken Weibe of Sportsnet and Murat Ates of The Athletic suggest the likelihood of a Scheifele trade to Boston is low, given the lack of appealing trade assets available for the Jets."

Given where the Jets are right now and what they could command from the Bruins, they likely aren't good trade partners despite the Bruins' need for a first-line center.

What Scheifele Could Return

If the Jets were to decide to move Scheifele out in a trade, the return would be massive.

Coming off a 42-goal season, Scheifele is worth a pretty penny and would command a high return.

Assuming the Jets do not retain any salary, they could easily get a young roster player, a top prospect, and a high pick in return for Scheifele's services.

However, if the Jets are willing to retain 50% of his salary, we could watch the Jets get even more than that as cap space is one of the most valuable assets in the NHL.
