Created by: NHLfan10506

Team: 2021-22 New Jersey Devils

Initial Creation Date: Oct. 31, 2021

Published: Oct. 31, 2021

Salary Cap Mode: Basic

Trades

NJD

van Riemsdyk, James

PHI

Always liked him, but expensive, and don’t see Philly retaining to send to division rival

NJD

Kreider, Chris

NYR

Would rule him out too for same reasons as JVR (also NTC)

NJD

Hörnqvist, Patric

FLA

Also expensive, and don’t think Florida would move him now. Maybe in off-season for cap space.

NJD

Copp, Andrew

WPG

Maybe Copp if we had good chance of resigning him. He can do a lot of things well.

NJD

Pavelski, Joe

DAL

I believe Dallas keeps him, but he would be great

NJD

Henrique, Adam

ANA

Does he still even play this role for Anaheim? I don’t know. He used to be pretty good at it.

NJD

Big salaries and/or rentals

ANA

All of the names I could think of are either older, expensive, or rentals. Ideally team like NJD would want younger, and a couple years control.

NJD

Maltsev, Mikhail

COL

Maybe we could find the best handsy big body and convert them as project. Maltsev has great hands and I always though he could do well in this role.

NJD

Geekie, Morgan

SEA

Another young guy who fits this mold

10.

NJD

Leason, Brett

WSH

“Welcome to the NHL kid, you’re traded”

11.

NJD

Recently, we have McLeod in that spot, but don’t think he has the hands for a true net-front shot deflector.

WSH

McLeod, Michael

12.

NJD

Nico is probably our best current player at this role, but we need him elsewhere on PP

WSH

Hischier, Nico

13.

NJD

Foote probably plays this role in future for us, but other parts of his game, primarily skating, aren’t there yet

WSH

Foote, Nolan

Buyouts

Cory Schneider: $2,000,000

Retained Salary Transactions

Will Butcher: $910,569 (24.39%)

Recapture Fees

Ilya Kovalchuk: $250,000

For our best net front tippers. It’s Wilson and oshie. It’s incredible how they do that. Also are you giving us Nico

Hyman is terrific but can’t see anyway Edmonton entertains moving him. Chiasson is also really good might be able to get him out of van for cheap at deadline.

And Nolan Foote. Don't pass on Foote just because Hischier is in there. Leason's got a lot of trade value, apparently.

the obsession with a token net-front guy drives me crazy. having one guy whos really good at that is far worse than having your whole team working together to crash the net, look for tips, and tap in rebounds. that job shouldnt be done by just one player.

If you are patient, Pavelski could be available around the TDL. We are not a PO team right now and I doubt this will change since we are basically the same team as last year…playing the same way as last year.

Pavelski would be great as UFA signing.
I was really naming him (and JvR, Hornqvist, etc) as the type of player I was talking about.

Probably. Wouldn't make sense for Devils to trade for rental...even if they are close to playoff bubble.
Maybe as UFA in off-season.
I trying to think of more under-the-radar alternative.

Oshie too. Should have included him with the Pevelski, JvR, Hornqvist. Wanna find an Oshie-lite.

Well, of course. Guys like McDavid, MacKinnon, Matthews and Mercer can do it all...

When its a missing piece on a power play, and everything else is there, then its worth looking at adding.
Also, its not really a substitute for crashing the net, playing rebounds, etc. Every team should be doing that.
Its a compliment to it.

jvr isd the best one, and NJ has the cap space. Hes probabkly not dear in trade either

Theres also the possibility that a 3rd team retains a bit on him.

But he has no real injury history and is a pretty safe bet to get his 20-30 goals and give the young guys a reliable pt producing veteran to help shoulder the weight

In case it was unclear, the Capitals accept. Where should Hischier and McLeod fit into their lineup?
