Thread: Overpaying to improve Defense

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Lights</b></div><div>I would give a bit more for a guy like Skej</div></div>

I am high on the Coyotes LHDmen and prospects. Moser and Valiamaki are good and I think one of Simashev, Kolyachonok, or Szuber could be ready in the next 2 years.

Skeji would probably want at least 5-6 years, and take up a bigger cap hit and spot from one of those although is defiantly the better player now.

Fits what Arizona has been doing, getting bigger players for a more physical game. Plus Zadorov and Myers 6'6"/235 lbs 6'8"229 lbs are similar size to Simashev and Lamoureux 6'4"/ 201 lbs 6'7"/ 199 lbs and would just be stopgaps until Simashev, Lamoureux, Sodestrom, Szuber, or whomever develops.

Berezkin for Carcone, yes teaammates with But/Simashev try and get all 3 to sign and play in the AHL next year. Also ARZ has a lot of young promising forwards with Carcone being the odd one out and get something for him instead of losing him on waivers.

Bad numbers in the AHL, bad this season in the NHL, I am higher on Daws, and is this I signed Stolarz so Allen/ Stolarz NHL, Daws/ Poulter in the AHL, Brennan in the ECHL. Odd goalie out.

Thread: 24-25

The cupboard is already pretty nice: Geekie, Lamoureux, But, Simashev, Hrabal, Doan, Szuber, and Raty, plus Lipkin, Tanner, Miko, Castagna playing well in the NCAA.

I say ARZ swings a little bigger literally and metaphorically and try and sign Zadorov or Myers.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>turtlemountain</b></div><div>Manson, Wood, Wagner, O’Connor all have the same number of fights as MacDermid this season.</div></div>

Honestly the possible fights are a benefit, think it might be an attitude change for the Devils. MacDermid in 150 mins this year is now 12 on the Devils in hits. Minus Bastian, Mcleod, Hischier, and Lazar the Devils have played like talent is all they need this year and look like they just expected to get back to the playoffs.

Maybe MacDermid throwing some hits starting scrums might shake something lose for the Devils.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>NHLfan10506</b></div><div>NJD never took cap dumps when we stunk and had oodles of cap space. Cannot imagine we would start now.</div></div>

No, but they did some cap based trades like Mueller, Subban, Siegenthler where they traded with teams with less cap space for better deals.

Also the Devils need to start getting prospects back in the system, badly. With Nemec in the NHL the only highly rated prospect they have left is Casey.

1st+Holloway covers the cost of dumping Campbell MAYBE</div></div>

Blackhawks got a 1st for Mrazek (2 years left) and a 2nd (13 spots back). Value that taking on Campbell would be around a 1st, so roughly Holloway for Toffoli, Lazar, and Smith.

Really high on Holloway initially he fills Mcleod's spot, then bumps up to 2nd line faceoff man for Hughes soon.

Thread: Call the season off

Yep.

I would wanna see Holtz in the top 6 though with Toffoli gone. Also I honestly think Smith could return a 3rd with retention, guy with size and willing fight on a cheap expiring contract might be more tempting with some bigger teams in the playoffs.

Thread: Markstrom Now

Why overpay for a older goalie who wont be there long in the Devils window? If the Devils move a 1st+ it should be for a goalie like Saros who will be around for more than the next 2 seasons.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>RationalHockeyFan</b></div><div>Honestly not sure if the Jets should take Dumba over Stanley, he just hasn't been the same offensive player since that injury he had a few years back. I think that any D the Jets add at the TDL needs to be a clear and unquestionable upgrade over someone in the "Dcore + Ville." I'm honestly not sure that Dumba is noticeably better defensively than Schmidt at this point, therefore I don't think it makes sense to acquire him.</div></div>

I thought Stanley wanted a trade at the beginning of the year or was that just Gawanke? Honestly Dumba probably doesn't play over Schmidt right away, just thought that WPG would want a righty for the playoffs and Stanley might be headed towards arbitration if he wants to try and get playing time next year.

Thread: Two year rentals

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>NHLfan10506</b></div><div>Daccord has been playing very well for last couple of years, just hadn’t gotten opportunity to play regularly. He was best goalie in AHL last year. And it’s not uncommon for goalies to arrive at his age (Markstrom wasn’t starter until he was 27). Daccord is a technically sound goalie so even if he fell off a bit, he would be able to correct. Comes from family of goalies, dad is a goalie coach at BU. Only making $1.2n for two years. I think he would be worth it.</div></div>

Just too much for me for a question mark.

Fitzgerald is starting to give me late term Lou vibes: doing trades to fix holes that just cause more holes by trading all the picks and young players. The Devils have VV, Daws, Schmid, and I guess Poulter, I'm fine at this point to see give them time and see if any of them can be the starter long term.

Forum: Armchair-GMFeb. 18 at 9:02 a.m.

Thread: Two year rentals

If the Devils move a 1st for a goalie, I hope it is at least for one with more than one good season under them.

Daccord and Dumolin are good but not big enough improvements to warrant the Devils moving a 1st.

Thread: Next year

Why does Knight cost a 1st? 4.5 million for a sub .900 in the AHL coming out of the assistance program. I know he was a 1st round pick and was good for a little, but if, if, the Devils get a goalie go for an established one at this point. Devils have tried enough young goalies with potential with Daws, Schmid, Blackwood, and V V.

Thread: Whats The Next Move

Not a playoff contender; at this point sell off whatever they can and give the rookies best chance to succeed. Instead of giving up more future assets for a 1st round exit.

I just don't see the Devils getting that last wildcard at this point, would rather just sell whatever for value and not rush Jack Hughes, Hamilton, Seigenthaler back from injury. Just punt on this season essentially.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Devsfan25</b></div><div>Bahl doesn’t hit either… if you have the chance to get a player like Hanifin and it costs us Kevin Bahl, we do it</div></div>

Bahl is the second in hits on the Devils: Bastian 93, Bahl 86, Lazar 85, Mcloed 82, and then it falls off a cliff Siegenthaler 48. Compared to rest of the NHL Bahl doesn't hit but on the Devils he's one of the few that does.

Hanifin is a great player but not worth Bahl, Clarke, and a 1st. At some point the Devils need to allow players to develop so that they don't need to trade to fill holes in the lineup every year. Bahl, Clarke, and 1st for Hanifin feels too much like Sharangovich for Toffoli. Give the young players a chance to develop into a Hanifan.

Thread: Trade Deadline

The last thing the Devils need is another defender that doesn't hit; keep bahl. It's only been two games without Mcleod and rest of the team looks like they are going through the motions looking at the offseason.

The Devils have Hamiliton, Sieg, Hughes, Marino, Nemec, and Bahl for next season. Why bring in another top 4 guy on D? Just sign a 6th/7th Dman to fill in for injuries.

Yes, Severson & Sharangovich would be better now.

Meier at this point looks like Palat right now: good player but overpaid for what they are bringing this season. I think he will pick it up at some point just not this year.

Toffoli trade still makes sense when it happened, Devils had Hughes, Hischier, Mcleod, Lazar, Haula for Center. Only had Mercer as a proven RW.

Mistake at this point is Meier, if the Devils don't trade for him they have all the cap space to resign Severson/ Graves.
