Big fan of the Devils Deal in particular, not sure their keen on moving him though because they also need defenceman and he is probably their best rn

That opens a major hole. I want a 1st plus a higher level prospect on top

for?

Severson

both guys in that return have high upside. niku in particular. I don't think realistically you will get any more from any other team

I like some of these moves but don't know how realistic any of them are, not sure if these teams would accept these offers.

Don't care for the Severson trade, would much rather keep Roslovic and NOT sign useless Vesey.. Lol
I think trading for a dman is unnecessary with so many dmen available in free agency plus the Jets D prospects knocking on the door, also if Demelo is resigned like he is here there's even less need to trade for Severson, Poolman is a fine 3rd pair RHD and shouldn't be scratched.

I think that deal is fair but I don't consider Niku has that high upside. 2 years ago I did but he is turning 24 this year and still hasn't cracked the Jets lineup regularly even after their defence was depleted this year. I think his time is running out to be impactful with guys like Stanley and Samberg coming behind him.

I don't want to trade Bailey since we need more scoring and not less, but this is really good value and saves us a lot in cap. I would consider this if we can't make other cap-saving moves.

I prefer Copp over Kerfoot
