If Forsberg wanted that kind of money i would be already sign by now. Nashville have offer him 9 millions allegedly. Would make sense since Josi make a little north of 9Millions.

In that case I’ll fix the signing

Forsberg would be a good signing, but I think he gets crazy money as a UFA

Would someone mind giving me a quick rundown on how Zach plays?

I like him, but I don’t follow the Devils a whole lot and I’m not familiar with his style.

Good shot and foot speed. Has size but doesn’t use it effectively. Better at wing than Center (can’t win draws) decent PKer overall pretty polarizing player among the fan base

So Forsberg leaves tax free Tennessee for high taxed New jersey he'll want between $10,000,000 to $11,000,000 per to sign there.

We lose the taxes battle. But hold our own on quality of life, facilities, travel schedule, cap space and a few good young centers to line with. I think it will be a popular call for UFA wingers.

Versatile, big, not physical, but can push through physicality, grade-A wrist shot, quick release, can be streaky, not a line-driver, but can handle the puck, plays PK and PP, quiet well-liked guy in clubhouse.

On transition, he does well as trailing player. In o-zone, he is at his best in high slot, on puck controlling line. Probably best as middle-six wing with possession center.

Instead of Forsberg, I wonder if Jersey native Gaudreau might be a more appropriate target. Not sure if Flames can afford him next year.

I personally would rather have the goal scorer.I also think guys like gaudreau need a power forward like tkachuk to create open ice for them and I don’t think the devils have that guy.

That’s a contract that’s gonna age like milk. I’d be upset if Tom inked Forsberg to this deal without a top 10 goalie in place
