Tatar plus Tarasenko equals TNT

Initial Creation Date: Aug. 5, 2021

Published: Aug. 5, 2021

Team: 2021-22 New Jersey Devils

Team Explanation

I could not help myself with the description (CAP Friendly doesn't support characters). Plus I think the Devs should still be in on the Tarasenko sweepstakes plus another bottom 6 fwd (preferably a 3rd line Center in my opinion). However, in this case I have added Kahun for the bottom 6.

Holtz might be able to slot in to the middle 6, but I would not bank on it or rush him into the lineup and let him get the reps he needs in the AHL this year.

Free Agent Signings

RFA		YEARS	CAP HIT
Kuokkanen, Janne		2	$1,250,000

Kahun, Dominik		1	$1,005,000

Trades

I think Tarasenko should come cheap but it definitely won’t be that cheap

Woods played on the 4th line a lot last season and he fit best there with McLeod and Bastian. I see him moving back and forth between the 3rd and 4th line. He is not a top 6 guy.

The Blues wouldn't take that without retention, let alone with it.

What do you think it takes to move Tarasenko? A player who does not want to be there and a GM who has reduced his value a ton? The assets STL can get for Tarasenko or sinking fast. If I were to change the terms of the trade after looking at STL depth chart I think a trade might look like this:

STL gets:
- Reilly Walsh (RD)
- 2022 NJD 3rd Round Pick

NJ gets:
- Tarasenko (no salary retention)

I don;t agree with your reading of the situation, but I'd think Walsh and a 3rd would certainly be much closer than AJ and a 4th.

I am definitely interested to hear a STL fans view on Tarasenko's worth and what you think STL should get for him given the situation your GM has actually put himself in regarding Tarasenko.

Oh, you mean the situation Tarasenko's agent "down low" claims Army put himself in without the journalist getting any rebuttal? Tarasenko's agent is the one putting himself in stupid positions.
