Team: 2023-24 New Jersey Devils

Initial Creation Date: May 3, 2023

Published: May 3, 2023

Salary Cap Mode: Basic

Description

My prediction for the 2023 offseason. I anticipate Severson, Tatar, Haula taking more team friendly deals to stay on a cup contending team. Nemec should probably cook for one more year in the AHL before being used as a mainstay on the roster, though he may be ready. In that case I don't see us re-signing Severson. The trades I made could realistically be made to any team for approximately the same value IMO. Could also see Gritsyuk coming over from Russia to be a bottom 6er.

Blackwood isn’t worth a third, 5th maybe

Slight overpayment for Blackwood. Would offer a 5th as said above.

Bratt and Meier minimally are getting $8,500,000 per long term. Your low ball offers aren't happening.

Blackwood can't even stay healthy if you're lucky you might get a 5th or 6th for him. Sorry a 3rd isn't happening.

With how Bratt is playing this playoffs, he is not sniffing 8mil.

His regular season would likely set the ceiling at 8.5 as well. He has zero (0) ppg seasons in the NHL.

Meier has the goals, but not the raw totals to get over 9M. I think he comes in at 8.75.

Bratt's production took a step back. I won't hold small-sample playoffs against him, but it also doesnt help him. He'll get the Fiala dead adjusted for rising cap. Call it 8.2.
