This is the kind of deal that gets GMs fired
As fun as it might be for the Devils to acquire Marner that would screw our salary cap situation for years to come, Marino is on a team friendly deal, and Mercer is about to sign a (hopefully team friendly) bridge deal, plus L. Hughes and Holtz ELC are up soon and they will need new contracts which we wont be able to afford if we go out and get Marner
Dont really have a need or use for Liljegren
Our pick is Top 10 so we can always just use it to acquire a better goaltender or better LHD or use it to restock the pipeline
So as you hopefully see its not really worth it for us to mortgage the future just for a short term boost.
