Bruins won't move McAvoy. He is untouchable.

Extremely unlikely NSH moves Fabbro. He's the only young, cheap guy in their top four, with no immediate replacement in their system.

It would have to be for a top6 winger with term/control. My target is Palmieri but I think we can get him without including Carlo. And ideally, we want him to re-sign.

Yes! But NJD needs 2 to make a pair. All of the others on roster or in pipeline have middle-pairing as ceiling. Bahl, Misyul, and Walsh are top-4. Vukojovich and Mukhamadullin are projects. Okhotyuk, McCarthy probably bottom pair guys.

Need a McAvoy

If Palms doesn't want to resign, I wouldn't mind a Palms Carlo trade

We need a defensive defensive/two-way defenseman to play with Smith. I think Walsh could be very solid top 4, maybe even top pair...depends on how he progresses

Carlo is good, but don't see him as top-2 guy.
Think going all-in on Sergachev is right move.

Bahl perhaps. At this point, Bahl or Misyul, I guess.
Great thing about Smith is that he can play either side too.

There is a vast discrepancy in talent and potential in that list. It doesnt look very promising that Hanifin will be a bona fide number 1 D but it would be foolish to count it out completely.
Sergachev is well on his way, if not aleady. He would have to have some sort of decline or injury to change that at this point.
Fabbro is the only glimmer of youth on the NSH back end, and I think something catastrophic would have to force their hand to make a trade like that.

The other guys are already #1 D and probably wont sniff another locker room until they are well into their 30s, if ever. We wouldnt be willing to give up the kind of assets it would take to acquire them.

The only problem I see with os Sergachev is if the Devils give up their first round pick and they are bad next season, that pick could be a high pick
