Hopefully Severson to Ottawa is announced soon

So the Devils are keeping Nemec as an extra Dman to start the year? Seems odd

Hopefully Shane Pinto to NJ is announced soon

Sounds counter productive to have the young defenseman sit in the press box instead of playing. Either a trade is coming, or Nemec is sent down

Never in a million years

That would be a fantastic add for Ottawa

You gotta move Severson and get some value back imo cuz he’s a rental

Suprised Nemec stays over Bahl. Might be just a 9 game trial as Bahl (and Okhotiuk) looked better than Nemec in the preseason

Hischier's injury is a concerning with not detail about it

Stoked that Holtz and Zetterlund made it

There has to be a move in the works then. I could really see something like Severson to a team for a ld+

Seems like it could just be a cap move keeping Nemec over Bahl to increase their LTIR pool. Wouldnt be shocked if its just a paper move and Nemec is sent down with Bahl being brought up before Utica opens up their season. Likely the same reason Johnsson is on the roster as well.

Could we have Nemec play a couple of games and Smith is scratched? Then we see what we have with Nemec. I think he'll get 6 games then get sent down.

My guess is that Nemec is replaced with either Bahl or Geertsen before 1st game. They wanted to get a higher overall cap number, so when they start accruing space using LTIR, they get more relief. I'd expect a round of roster moves before game 1 (Nemec sent down, Geertsen called up, Johnsson sent down, Bahl called up).

(or a trade is coming, but I think the other)
