Thread: Filling in

We can't do Sharangovich + Graves without a significant contract leaving. Only Krug makes sense which seems to be a bit of an issue atm.

Thread: Bolstering

Problem is TB likes BIG and PHYSICAL on the blueline Walsh ain't that. Boqvist is a 8-11 fwd . Everyone should realize by now picks mean little to TB. I know it's a bit played but the piece imo that is a deal breaker in a Colton to NJ trade is Bahl TB would require him and NJ doesn't appear willing to part with him.

Thread: Bolstering

Can't see the Blues using a 23 1st to pick up a winger right now. They have other pressing needs. If they sort those first, then perhaps they'd bite.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>DevilsFan69</b></div><div>Honestly fair enough, I would rather have Tuna than Freddy.

I think when it comes to "grit" Fitz isn't as old fashioned as you might think. He can't do anything without analytics signing off, and I'm sure analytics loves Tatar and would push for him to be kept around. I'd give Tatar up to 5 on a 1-2 year deal but I think if he knows he can win here he'd take a 3x3 or similar.

Thread: What I would like to see this off-season

IMO, the Devils must do whatever they can to get a goalie (Saros seems like the best option). You are stacked at defense and have a great, deep forward group. To compete in the metro, you can run Vanecek and have a tough rounds 1-2 each year guarenteed. Or to dominate, you can get an elite goalie and truly be an all star team.

Vanecek could win you a cup and is without a doubt a top 30 goalie, probably top 20 in the NHL. But what happens when you run into a team like the Rangers, who have the chance to out goalie you and scrape away a series win? Trading a few assets and picks (so anyone young but like Nemec, Hughes, Mercer, etc) such as (maybe) Casey, Bahl, Stillman, Walsh, or Daws in a package for Saros seems like an awesome option

Thread: Meier will be traded tomorrow

Same with Jarvis - this is a moot point. Meier would be a Cane or Devil if either of those players were on the table.

At the end of the day, The Devils SHOULD be able to outbid most teams because they have a solid mix of young roster players and top end prospects.

We are staring at a good ole fashioned gun fight with the Sharks, Devils and Canes all pointing their weapons at each other. Maybe Fitzgerald has a itchy finger and does something dumb.

If everyone acts rationally - Meier becomes a Cane by a slight overpay by a team with a lot of assets they can play with. If Devils act irrationally - some really high end young players are going to be wearing Teal.

I'd be very satisfied with this trade, and in fact, expect it, or something similar.

Now if you want to see a truly horrible trade, I present to you Forbes' proposed trade:

I can’t wait to see sjbackseatgm and sleeparc disappointment when the return is nothing close to what they’re expecting. It’s going to be VERY gratifying.

Thread: Obligatory timo trade

Starting to wonder, with recent changes, if Zetterlund, Sharangovich (moved up next to Hughes lately) & Holtz (AHL for ice time) are being showcased ...

Thread: Timo time to the Max

I dunno, depends how much Grier wants a goalie prospect

I still maintain that Sharangovich is kind of meh for SJ in a SJ trade and I still think Grier only moves Meier for a slight overpay. Shar is not a bad player but he's only 2 years younger than Meier. They probably want to go younger or else why not keep Meier, who is not that old. Maybe SJ is competing again when Meier is 28 or 29. Makes more sense if they're really going to blow it up to go younger and with prospects with more potential, or else Grier doesn't make the trade.
I'm much more on board 1st+Holtz+Casey/Muk/Walsh/Bahl trades, because it makes more sense in a real blowup

Thread: Bringing back a former teammate as a playoff depth piece

He’s not worth a 2nd. A third would suffice, but that’s if the Caps want to move him.

Swap Brennan for Schmid or a 2nd and I think that's a package everyone can get behind (except for a certain couple Sharks fans on this site)

More like 10 teams, my friend. And while they probably like several of NJ's prospects, I think Foote is pretty far down the list. It's just not a competitive package.

The Meier offer is solid, but I can't imagine that gets you Barby.

If we're getting Mukh and Casey then yeah I'd definitely take that over Holtz. Sharks have solid forward prospects and will no doubt get another quality FW in the top 10 at this draft.

They don't represent us, this is a solid deal. Maybe add a 4th or 5th since Bones in included, but I would not be upset with this return.

I don’t think this is too far off, it’s close but, I think Boqvist should be replaced with someone better OR swap Shakir with Seamus and it would work.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Koskinen_The_Great</b></div><div>That return doesnt get you Josh Anderson, let alone, Meier</div></div>

Well of course not, silly. If we're talking about acquiring Anderson, the Devils would have to add Blackwood and Johnsson to the deal. It's only fair since Montreal would be adding their 23 and 24 1st round picks in the deal. :)
