There’s probably a close to zero chance Nemec gets packaged for a return that’s headlined by pieces that can’t bring proven top tier support to the team today

Any time you have the chance to trade the number one prospect in the league at a position outside the NHL for a significantly lesser prospect at the same position and a late first, you have to take it, amirite?

New Jersey also tells you to kick rocks, but nicer than Columbus did.

Vegas is not cap dumping Nic Roy, especially not on his current contract for Jordan Harris. Why would they ever dump him when Karlsson is older and makes more to be a similar player
