Minnesota declines. They aren't trading a cheap restricted 1st pairing big body dman to resign and keep with spurgeon. Minnesota traded Kaapo kahkonen to acquire him for play with spurgeon, he's not getting traded

Serivelli and others are already saying 2OA plus is in play for Debrincat so I don't think so

No reason to do 2024 1st over 2023 for Cat. This team more than likely isn't anywhere close to picking top 3 so pushing it back a year just tanks the value and makes the trade less appealing.

I don't do the Middleton trade since we have Luke coming up in the spring, and replacing Boqvist with UFA Barbashev isn't ideal. I also think not giving Smith a chance is foolish. That said, shoot Graves into the sun for all I care, he has no future here.

My last concern is Holtz on the 3rd line. He needs a Hughes or a Bratt to succeed at the NHL level.

Debrincat’s contract situation is going to significantly depress his value.

Everyone's trading Nolan Foote, but he's a future star. Why?

Yes, Seravalli said in his trade watch article that DeBrincat is getting traded ("Its a matter of 'when' not 'if'")

Yes, Seravalli said the 2nd overall pick is in play (but it was based on one answer to reporters question before the lottery when Devils GM answer was, "I’m open to whatever can help our team improve. And if that is using a pick like that, wherever it may be, to help bring in a player that we know and feel will help impact, you know, the results we are looking for, um, absolutely, that's my job, to improve our hockey club through all the assets that we have") Watch it here (at about 11:50 mark).

No, Seravalli "and others" have not established a link if 2nd overall pick has been discussed for any player.

No, Seravalli "and others" have not established a link between Devils and Blackhawks about DeBrincat.

This is all speculation.

I don't want to trade him at all...I think he fits one of our biggest needs for interior forward who can screen, tip, deflect, etc.

I wouldn't say he will be a future star though...the skating isn't there and he turns like a tanker. He should be solid middle-six 20-goal guy.

He seems like a very unlikely trade target for Fitzgerald.
And is a year away from making $9m or so a year.

To some degree, yes, I agree.
Also, he is a winger...$8m+ contracts are ideally centers and dmen.
Wingers due big money often go for cheaper than their perceived "value"

I think any GM wants a winger that can score 40-50 goals a year tho

I'll be shocked if the Debrincat return is underwhelming. Davidson will only trade him if it's a massive deal. If/when it happens, I fully expect the initial reaction to be that the hawks won the trade, just like the Hagel trade. My assumption would be people are saying it's a when, not if he gets traded situation because there will be multiple suitors with big offers. Dave Pagnotta on twitter the other day said that the Devils, Flyers, Senators, Islanders, Kings. Sewrivelli mentions 2 OA in play for cat. There are multiple insiders reporting on the Devils interest, like it or not

Yes, of course, but...

Wingers are always available, and often cheap
Wingers develop faster than centers/dmen
More young wingers are putting up points
Devils have plenty of good skilled wingers

Never overpay for a winger.

All speculation...Pagnotta said "it will be interesting to watch if New Jersey gets in on the action on DeBrincat"

No one has linked the two teams.
No one has linked 2nd overall pick to any player.

Which is not surprising because very few leaks come from NJD (unless intended).

All speculation at this point.

Canes pass instantly. Koochie is not being traded. Especially not for such an underwhelming package.
