Knowing this:
1. No team is going to want to offer Meier the $10 million QO next year
2. This trade contains 2022 picks, thus must be done before 2022 draft (July 7-8)
3. This trade cannot come with an extension, since earliest Meier can be extended is July 13th (after the draft)
Leads me to this:
4. Meier is being traded as one-year rental
5. No team is paying this price (Holtz, 1st, 2nd) for a rental.
Thus, Devils Decline.
I would suggest re-offering as a trade without 2022 picks, so its done after July 13th.
