doesn't trigger me at all sir, I'd be willing to move Wood for Dunn
Trade isn't terrible.
Value is fine...just not the best fit.

I would do Dunn for Wood for sure, not sure if the devils accept. If they did, probably not sign Bozak but yeah good idea. I think leaving Krug or Faulk exposed is risky, because they are very good defenseman.
Devils would decline.
I think Dunn goes for similar price as Toews last season (two 2nd round picks...maybe a 2nd and a 3rd).
Just probably not to NJD.

1 for 1 for Wood in my opinion. I know that triggers Devil's fans as well, but Wood is a middle 6 guy and fits the Blues mold. Him on a line with Thomas and Kyrou next season would be amazing. Tons of speed, lots of crashing the net, aggressive forechecking.
Worth noting: you could likely leave one of Faulk or Krug exposed as I don't believe Seattle would want to take on a lengthy contract out the gate. Plus there is a trade freeze so many days prior to the expansion draft.
Nobody getting triggered by this offer.
Here is the problem with Dunn to Devils.
Will Butcher plays a very similar style to Dunn (with probably more passing/playmaking and a little less speed in transition).
But Butcher has struggled to stay in Lindy Ruff's lineup.
I'd worry Dunn would suffer the same fate as they are very similar players...and have had some similar struggles in their own zone.
If Devils somehow saw something in Dunn's game that they didn't in Butcher's, I am all ears. But I view them similarly.
Dunn is not the type of d-man we should be acquiring.
