Salary Cap Mode: Basic
Description
Think this team makes the playoffs. Has good depth as well with Johnsson and Kuokkanen on the bench; both guys can play up and down the lineup. I have a feeling that Fitz isn't going to be interested in spending big on Campbell or Kuemper so Vanecek is one of those secondary options. With both him and Blackwood healthy, the goaltending should be good enough to make the playoffs. Important to note that Bernier is still on LTIR here so if one of the goalies played really poor in the beginning, you have to hope he is able to come back and play

Oh, I disagree, there are just too many teams for the Devils to leapfrog to make the playoffs next season. Devils shouldn't be trading their second overall pick

I think this team would have one of the deepest forward groups in the league. We could already score at high rates last year and that was with Jack and Dougie missing half the year. Imagine both of them healthy and u add a 40 goal scorer. We’ll outscore the opponent to win games. Even if we had mediocre goaltending last year, we would’ve won a lot more games. Now that this team has average to good goaltending, I think u could see a lot of 4-2 or 5-3 wins.

Very possible. I’ve proposed that myself. But I do think Fitzgerald is going to do everything in his power to not trade Holtz and 2OA. I think this package gives the Hawks a lot of options honestly. Boqvist is still young and coming off the best year of his career, Gritsyuk just won KHL ROY and should be coming over next year, and Mukhamadulin will be a top 4 dman in the future. Add Logan Cooley into the mix and a 3rd in a stacked draft and it’s a pretty good package

If they preferred Zacha over Boqvist, I’d be fine with that as well

Please read what the Devils GM has been saying about the types of forwards they need. Its not DeBrincat.

Also, this is a massive overpay.
