              I think its a typo but it says that the devils trade Luke Hughes with the 6th overall pick

              NYI - OK with prospect/pick for Palms. Bolduc may be preferred.
              VAN - I would probably pass on this one. I'd rather keep Butcher and Johnsson if its a 15-20 pick.
              BOS - I'd think one of Murray and Kulikov in smaller deal more likely
              VGK - sounds good
              COL - If Zajac waives, sounds good
              EDM - Gusev for 2nd or 3rd or B prospect seems more likely than Neal/higher pick for both sides.

              I think Devs need to be in top 4 for Hughes.
              Wilde is fine, no first. I'd give back NYIs 2nd if we could take Hickey and Bellows. I see Lou picking up some D insurance myself, nothing big just in case
              Boston might do it but its close, leaning no. That pick will almost be a second, Moore may not be worth the hassle! I would also flip that in a pkg for a good defender
              Van needs to add something for those players going to Van, they probably won't
              I think PK ends up in Sea., it may take giving a Merkley type if Fitz likes what the young guys are doing (I do)
              Zajac trade is interesting.
              No on Neal/first Gus if you can get it, go

              Luke Hughes just had a season ending injury which will make his draft stock go down
              I think Devils protect Subban and flip him at the 2022 deadline.
              What should I change in the Oilers and Bruins offer?

              We don't really need Jones
              Devils would have been better than the Rangers if it wasnt for Covid

              Luke Hughes just had a season ending injury which will make his draft stock go down Yes that is true, I forgot
              I think Devils protect Subban and flip him at the 2022 deadline. If he continues trending upward it would be worth it
              What should I change in the Oilers and Bruins offer?
              First I think Goose may want a say in where he goes, so it may be a moot point. I'd guess FLA, NY are first options
              Maybe Bear from Edm with some tweaking
              With Boston I'd try and get a player who might be held back because of what is on the big squad. I don't know their prospects but that is the idea

              I really like the trade with the Isles. I don't want Loui, even it's for a year. And we already got rid of Moore, we don't need him back. I agree that we could send Vats, Carrick, and Tennyson to whomever would want them. Keep Zajac unless we have the option to send him to a surefire Cup contender for a mid round pick, then re-sign him in the offseason to a more team friendly deal. I think we shouldn't give up on the Goose just yet.

              I do agree that if it wasn't for Covid, the Devils would be in a better position in the standings. Blackie was on fire and the team was clicking.

              I really like the trade with the Isles. I don't want Loui, even it's for a year. And we already got rid of Moore, we don't need him back. I agree that we could send Vats, Carrick, and Tennyson to whomever would want them. Keep Zajac unless we have the option to send him to a surefire Cup contender for a mid round pick, then re-sign him in the offseason to a more team friendly deal. I think we shouldn't give up on the Goose just yet.

              Zajac woudl have to be a 4th line C imo and it seems liek it wont be a good fit. McLeod has shown he can win FOs, Goose woudl need to sign a VERY team friendly contract from to want him back, not sure he would

              Yea McLeod is getting better at FOs, but Zajac can defend with the best of them. Unless the rise in Zacha's play stays for the rest of the season, and he develops into what us Devil's fans know he can be, I'd keep Zajac. I would sign Goose back on a 1yr/$3 mil extension to see if he still wants it, knowing that we could always flip him at the deadline for a late pick and a bucket of pucks.

              I doubt Gusev wants to stay with Ruff always playing him in the bottom 6. He would get a better opportunity on a different team. Zajac won't have a spot on the team with other players coming up the system. I rather see him try to win a cup.

              There should be better options than Zajac & Dell but it's not the worst.
