Thread: PK for Trouba idea

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>FireShero</b></div><div>Subban got traded with $54,000,000 and then again at $27,000,000 and Mantha ($22,8000,000) got traded not even a year into his contract.

I'd think Rangers add.
Nate Schmidt had 5 years at almost $6 million/year.
Only got a 3rd in return.

Starting to run low on bodies on blueline if Murray, Kulikov, Butcher, Vatanen go....

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Campabee</b></div><div>Montreal would rather trade for Butcher than Vatanen say Mete + 2 - 2nds for Butcher</div></div>

That seems like a good match.
You think Mete would go straight to our third pair?

I agree. I think Kulikov will fetch a healthy return.
Would love it if we could re-sign him to 2-year, low $$ extension. But unlikely.

Thread: CAP IS BACK

Corey Masisak via twitter:

"Forward Nick Merkley is on waivers for the second time this season. He has played more than the allotment of games (9) allowed before needing waivers to be put on the taxi squad or sent to the AHL. He has 6 points in 13 games for the Devils."

So it wasn't a goalie-punch.
Phew.

I’m pretty sure that’s not allowed under the new CBA.

You can’t condition on whether they resign anymore. You can do something around the playoff run tho

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>FireShero</b></div><div>With the Devils only having 9 NHL forwards now (with Bratt unsigned) I gotta think Everybody is gonna get a chance. The only one I am going to guess is going to make the starting lineup is Bastian because of his size ( and the lack of size in the lineup) and he is a righty.

I hope the Devils sign somebody though for the bottom 6 so it's not just mostly rookies playing in the bottom 6</div></div>

I hope so too, it would be good if there are a mix of vets and rookies in the bottom 6

Thread: NewJersey in 4 years

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>FireShero</b></div><div>I think it will be a lot like last year without all the expectations of PK and Hall returning to form. Below a .500 win percentage, hopefully some big development from Hughes/ young players, but big sellers at the deadline (Gusev, Murray, Kulikov, Palmieri/ Zajac (if Palmieri doesn't want to resign/ Zajac wants a chance at a cup))</div></div>

Exactly what I was thinking. Hopefully we could keep Murray and one of Palms/Goose (preferably Palms)

Thread: If the Devils made the right draft picks

It's tough, because Zacha was very highly rated coming out. Shero wanted a physical two way centerman and that's what Zacha projected to be. Missing on that pick is a large part of why the Devils are where they are- they could have had any of Werenski, Provorov, Rantanen, Barzal, Chabot, or Connor. I'm sure I'm missing some as well. The McLeod pick irked me at the time as well because we actually traded down with Ottawa. I wanted Logan Brown at the time- McAvoy didn't even cross my mind.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>FireShero</b></div><div>The Devils need some grit man, even the Leafs went out and got Bogosian and Simmonds. Plus TBL brought in my physical guys to balance out the skill (i.e. Bogosian, Maroon, Goodrow, Coleman, and Schenn).

I'm not saying I need Janseen, Rupp, and Luc-Lebold back, but get some guys that can hit, play defense, and play on the penalty kill.</div></div>

They have a ton of it, the issue is they are in the pipeline and not quite ready yet lol. The last couple of drafts they've been looking for thiccc boys and kids who play heavy.

(or at least bigger than they are now lol)

That D core is just awful IMO. Butcher and PK can't defent at all and Murray isn't a top pairing d-man.

Although I think another year of tanking could/should be beneficial for their long term benefit
