Is it he's not good at hockey anymore? Or he doesn't have anybody to play with?

This would be a fun destination for Kane but I'd think if he leaves the hawks he'll either go back to the hawks in free agency or re-sign with the team that trades for him at the deadline. But I would love an excuse to buy a Devils jersey so if he does leave I hope the Devils get him.

If Kane gets signed as a free agent next year it's probably going to be for 3 to 5 years, maybe 1,but 2 seems odd.

Exactly what the devils don’t need. Another small skilled player. Also he doesn’t play defense. He’s not gonna be liked bc of that

You mean domi, Athanasiou, seth jones (armchair-gm sweetheart), and mccabe aren't superstars?

Let's say NJ signs him for 3 years, what would the AAV be you think? I don't want to give him 7mil over 3 years, maybe 5mil.

I would guess something in the mid 6s.

Kane will get a 4-5 year deal worth between $7,500,000 to $8,000,000 per.

Not good at hockey anymore, but also isn’t playing with anyone good.

I think if that’s what he wants, NJ should stay away. I like Kane but with his age in the mid 30’s I’d pass.

I'd steer far away from Kane, from what I gather his age is catching up to him in every aspect of play.
Much rather go for Kuzmenko or Tarasenko if the Devils are looking for a high-end winger in FA.

As for the rest:
Bratt seems a little low in terms of AAV, don't think he'd accept anything below Hintz's extension (and he'd still be well worth that AAV).

Seems you get the contracts for Sharangovich and Wood switched up.
Now I wouldn't necessarily want the Devils to extend Wood to begin with but if they were it'd have to be short term.
In a year or two so many wingers in the Devils organization will have developed past Wood that he'd just be scratched or buried in the AHL stealing valuable cap space from a contending team.
Sharangovich is looking like a great complementary forward in a cup contender and would be great value to get him signed below 4m for 3-5 years.

I could see the argument for qualifying Blackwood and getting one more year of him in New Jersey if there aren't a ton of great options on the goalie market.
But then again Blackwood's been very disappointing on the whole going back to 2020 so moving on from him after this season could make a ton of sense to.

As things stand I don't like the idea of resigning Graves.
Doing that means that two of Bahl, Okhotiuk or Walsh would have to be traded or lost for nothing as their waiver exemption expires at the conclusion of this season.
I think there as a trade available for one of the three but for 23/24 I'd like to use at least two of them on a 23 man roster.
My suggested 23/24 D corps:
Siegenthaler - Hamilton
Luke Hughes - Marino
Okhotiuk - Smith
Bahl 7th D.
