I am trying to use the same position for the comps, and am not taking into consideration either team’s needs.

Description

Hughes - EK
Centerpiece

Sasson - Perron
young AHL filler. I don’t know anything about him, so if you like him just replace with an appropriate option in your brain

VAN

Bahl, Kevin
McLeod, Michael
Nemec, Simon
Stillman, Chase
2024 1st round pick (NJD)
2025 1st round pick (NJD)
2025 2nd round pick (NJD)
2026 2nd round pick (NJD)

Additional Details:

Player - Comp
Description

Nemec - Norris
Top Prospect. For Ottawa that was Norris, for NJ that’s Nemec. A grade Prospect
Not sure there’s a good forward prospect at this level for the devils to use instead

McLeod - Tierney
Bottom Six young established NHL center able to play up and down the lineup when needed.
If Defensemen - Bahl

Stillman - Balcers
B Prospect in the AHL.
Other forward options could be Foote, Filmon, or an unsigned prospect

Bahl - DeMelo
Young NHL defensemen with room to grow
Forward option could be Holtz, but moving Holtz likely means a downgrade elsewhere. Maybe Bastian is more appropriate, but probably means adding value to another comp.
Could also have a goalie replacement for the position with Schmid here as a younger NHL goalie with some upside

For the picks:

Two 1sts should be all but guaranteed, since NJ has a much more positive outlook for their playoff future. Maybe that’s hindsight talking, but maybe just top pick or top 3 protection hanging there. Or you can imagine similar conditions to what EK trade actually had doesn’t matter to me
