Description
*Disclaimer*

I am a Devils fan, so there can be some bias in here, and admittedly I have limited knowledge on how other fan bases/teams value certain prospects. It could be an over payment by Vegas, but this is where I would start the conversation being an unqualified internet General Manager.

NJ will get a 1st for Vatanen, unless you really want Dorofeyev

Don’t get me wrong, I would love another 1st for NJ in a deeper draft like the one upcoming.

I just look at Dorofeyev as a 19 year old getting more consistent time in the KHL with grown men, and his playmaking abilities. But if getting a 1st instead of him and a possible future 2nd round pick happens, I’m happy.

Making this trade I couldn’t see a clear cut “winner” and it feels like both sides could give or take more imo, so I deemed it a fair enough trade, depending on how Vegas values Dorofeyev, of course.

McNabb has term left at a decent price and adds grit to a D core that has zero. Plus experience on a left side that is clearly lacking in the defensive zone, and I don’t feel Vegas would mortgage future talent by sending over a 19 and 21 year old.
