Team: 2024-25 New Jersey Devils

Initial Creation Date: Apr. 26, 2024

Published: Apr. 27, 2024

Salary Cap Mode: Basic

Description

Trade for a top tier goalie, prices will vary. Available r mercer, holtz, 24/25 first depending on the goalie. Saros, ullmark, n swayman obviously costing the most. Not markstrom bc according to flames acgm he would cost mercer, holtz, 24 n 25 first lol n may even need to add more.

Marino for a 2nd to whoever needs a rd.

Here's where it gets tricky n Ottawa n devils fan won't agree. We need tkachuck. Hed protect our guys n has to ability to play on a top line. Look how mcdermid changed the culture in that short time only playing 4 mins a game. I'd b willing to give up nemec n a 2nd for him. Sometimes u have to give a little more than u want to get what u need!

We could draft a top dman with the 10th pick. Silayev may be available still and we could draft him or Dickinson may fall to 10.

Holtz+1st....is way too much for one year of any goalie. One or the other.

Nemec isn't going anyway.
Build from center, blueline.

I'm sorry but this is awful.

You've absolutely decimated the dcore. we have 1 singular RHD now. You've downgraded from Marino to Zadorov and MASSIVELY from Nemec to Hatakka.

This is a reckless way to build out the roster. It puts the devils in cap hell. This roster is already $1M over the cap and doesn’t factor in extensions for Luke Hughes and Juuse Saros which have to come the following season. There’s also no need to buy out Palat’s contract when it saves less than $1M against the cap. That’s also a bloated contract for Nikita Zadorov which is a definitive downgrade from John Marino. There are better ways to address the issues.
