<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>KingDavis</b></div><div>Yeah I think we’re on the same page. I’m leaning towards not wanting Boeser now because I’m scared he might turn into an overpayment and Neal is a good comparison of that.

I’ve always wanted someone like Burakovsky and Nichushkin so I’d be interested to see what some of the younger UFAs would cost. Also would like to go after Husso if he gets to free agency. For defence, I miss Kulikov lol. I’d be fine trading for someone (Zach Whitecloud) but yeah NJ doesn’t seem too far from competing</div></div>

Burakovsky
Nichushkin
Husso
Are all good adds

I'd like to include Marchment from Fla as a UFA and maybe a Lybushkin from Tor, who is a ufa

Thread: Do we even need a winger-

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>KingDavis</b></div><div>Goaltending is obviously NJ’s biggest need. Anyone who disagrees is clearly not watching the games lol.

I personally would have winger at priority 2, though it is close. I don’t want the chance for another Vesey and Bastian playing with Nico situation again. I think NJ only has 2 top 6 wingers in the NHL right now (3 if you count Mercer) so for me I think upgrading Zacha’s roster spot would be my focus (though he has been playing well with Nico and Bratt so if he can keep that up than possibly not).

Plus I actually like our defence. I think Hamilton, Severson, Siegenthaler, and Graves is a solid top 4. It’s the bottom pair that worries me. I’d target upgrading the bottom pair.

So yeah goalie by far the biggest need. I can see the argument for D being a higher priority than winger. But at the end of the day I think he need an upgrade on both D and winger.</div></div>

I think we are on same page. My priorities

1. Goalie -- someone to compete with Blackwood, same age...Samsonov, Vladar, etc. But could come from our pipeline if Daws really emerges in 2nd half.
2. Defensive d-man -- third pair lock-down guy to play with either Smith or Walsh. It could be Bahl, Okhotiuk...could be veteran Kulikov type signing.
3. Big winger -- a younger JvR or Patric Horqvist type...play on 3rd line, someone good around net. This is the role I had hoped Nolan Foote would play...or even Graeme Clarke.

And I never want to overspend on wingers. Guys like Laine often turn into guys like Skinner. The Burakovsky's turn into Lucic's. The Boeser's turn into James Neal. Eriksson, Zucker, Gallagher, Ladd, etc etc.

Wouldn’t be my first choice, but it’s better than status quo. Hopefully Fitzy finds us someone.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>NHLfan10506</b></div><div>Buy the dips!

Grubs has rebounded some recently and we know he is a good, and in a bad system.
I think he can return to being 0.915+ goalie.</div></div>

I don’t think he’s that good
He got carried by the Avs defense
And hoping he can rebound is a huge risk with his 6x6 contract

I hope we don’t trade for Grubauer

He’s having a historically bad season and his contract is really bad

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>DevilsFanZack13</b></div><div>NJ accepts.</div></div>

No way Fitzy does that. He has said multiple times he doesn’t want picks. Looking for young players for specific roles.

Muzzin deal is the comp. Two good B+ type prospects and a pick.

Thread: Severson

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Byrr</b></div><div>While he went too low, you went way too high. You wouldn't get both Knies and Niemala. You are talking about a prospect much further down the depth charts for the Leafs to go with Niemala. Someone along the lines of a Tverberg or a Villeneuve.</div></div>

I somewhat agree with this
But this is what I see. Devils would want as much value for Severson as possible, Leafs want top 4 RD
Devils ask: 1st, Niemela, Knies
Leafs ask: 1st, 3rd, Holl
If a fair deal is done, I think it would be: 1st and Niemela

Thread: Severson

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>palhal</b></div><div>No thanks from the Leafs. Leafs can get rid of Ritchie next summer if necessary relatively cheap, but Severson's 4.1m contract can't be handled the Leafs. And I wonder if Severson really wants to play in pressure situation with a good team He was so poor against the Leafs in the two games last week, I wonder if was doing a Shane Doan, " I can prolong my career, by not playing playoff games"</div></div>

I saw Auston Matthews play poorly in two games in the playoffs against the Habs last year. Does this apply to him too?

Oh yeah my offer was just for Hall. Vatanen should fetch a pretty good prospect and a pick
