Pittsburgh is weird in that they actually play better sometimes when either crosby, malkin, or both are out of the lineup. Now last playoff collapse was bad but then again they were on their 3rd goalie so meh I give them a one time pass. I got a feeling they are gonna make some noise and hopefully we see NYR vs. Pitt round 2 as there needs to be a revenge arc


I fully expect Sullivan to turn Ty smith into a Norris caliber defenseman

Devils fans were comparing Ty Smith to Quinn Hughes last season. He must be elite

Not a fan of this - It better be extremely team friendly. Buffalo has the luxury of having him for 1 more year on a cheap contract with Cozens, Krebs , and Savoie in the system. I think Cozens will be a high end 2C, Savoie 1C.

The Devil's defense changed A LOT since last offseason. Back then, I was genuinely expecting Ty Smith to be a top pairing d man on the Devils.

After only 1 year of production, that’s a spicy contract.

It’s just incredibly risky. Maybe buffalos analytics dept has some good info on him lol.

See Gaglardi that's how you f*cking do it.

Gotta admit though I wouldn't give that much for Thompson after one good season, but Robertson has been PPG pretty much throughout his career.

Could be a steal if he can keep up the play though. So high risk high reward IMo.

I’m not sure he’d accept that - I think 9.5 x 7 is a fair contract
