Next Year

Probably have to take out Manson, that’s prob pushing it.

And I doubt Henrique waives M-NTC for BUF. The Sabres would be smart to get a third team involved, and then trade Henrique directly to them after retaining salary to up the return

Devils pass on Risto

Pens aren’t trading their starter for a mid round pick.

If the Pens are clearing Jarry to bring in a major upgrade then that's a pretty solid deal. I don't think Jarry's value is that great right now, so a 3rd round is a perfectly fine return. The only thing I'd insist on is making the 2021 3rd from FLA is a 2022 BUF 3rd.

Pens might be able to get a 2nd for him. I mean, they got one for Murray, but I think that playoff performance hurt him pretty bad.

I doubt it hurt him that bad. I mean the whole series wasn’t terrible. And if a few games kills a players value that much then no one would have value and there’d be no sense in trading him. If the pens get an upgrade, they’d probably be better off trading DeSmith. It’s not like Jarry is on some super insane contract. And he’d be an upgrade over DeSmith as a backup. But again, I doubt it really hurt his value. I mean we got a 2nd for Murray that was looking to get paid after 2 years of being average to below average. I can’t see the pens not getting at least a 2nd for Jarry who is on a good contract.
