Bringing Rico back would truly make this year feel like the Cup has a chance to come home to NJ. The only remaining Devil, aside from Adam Larsson, from the 2012 cup run in the NHL and a fan favorite would overwhelm this fanbase.

Gotta get over what Henrique did over a decade ago. He's not even a veteran who brings much of any playoff experience besides that run. This would be a waste of assets just for a name we know, and also blocks Holtz out of the lineup.

These are the assets that Fitz is probably looking to move for Ullmark, Helle, etc (not saying he needs to do it). I really don’t see what Henrique brings to the third line that isn’t already there outside of feel-good nostalgia.
