I don't mean to be rude but that is a very very easy no from NJ. Kerfoot is a decent player imo but he plays a position NJ is stacked in with young talent. Also Devils drafted him and he left as a college FA so I don't think the organization has any interest in him. So he's basically not in the equation. Engvall is....eh? Devils have tons of their own young players on LW who are better than him or have the potential to be. Top 4 LW's on NJ right now are Zacha, Bratt, Sharangovich, Wood. If one of those guys plays on the right (which usually happens) they have Kuokkanen, Nolan Foote, Andreas Johnsson. I would rather any of those guys than Engvall (maybe with the exception of Johnsson which ain't saying much) so he is basically of no value for NJ.

Which means the only piece coming back of value is Morgan Rielly. And while I really like that player there is no planet where he is worth Miles Wood and Damon Severson. Wood was the leading goalscorer on a team that can't score goals and plays that mix of grinder/fighter/skill that every team seems to want. Severson is by far NJ's best defenseman at the moment and pretty much the only good RD here long term. Devils have some potential on the left with Ty Smith, Kevin Bahl, Nikita Okhotyuk, Shakir Mukhmodoullin. The right is weak. After Severson it's Subban (one more year) and....not much.

Add in contracts and NJ simply can't do this deal. Severson is signed to a team friendly deal for 2 more seasons. Wood is still young enough he gets RFA status so no worries about losing him. Rielly expires after next season, a season where NJ will almost definitely not be competing for the Cup. And then he gets a big new contract on the market which the Devils might not even be interested in bidding on. Simply put, can't trade 2 huge future pieces for a guy who will probably either sign somewhere else or decline by the time the Devils are competing.

Alllllllllllll that said, I am not completely against a Rielly trade to NJ if the circumstances were right. Severson is an absolute no but if TOR wanted to talk about a deal with Rielly and Wood as the centerpieces NJ would probably listen.

No interest in Engvall, Kerfoot
Only take Rielly if you are dumping him
Severson stays

Devils decline, but could counter offer for just one d-man

I would say NJ would counter with somthing like Rielly, Robertson, and 2022 1st.

Rielly being one year from ufa really drops his value to teams like NJ. You would need to send him to a conender who has cap space and a need a LD/PP to get best value.

Devils pass. Devils don't need Kerfoot and Engvall and Rielly has 1 year left
