If the offer comes in at a 1st and more, that'll get me to the table (and we better be getting Timo in that case), but keeping severson for a playoff run is just too valuable to be giving up cheap. I think he's the best RHD on the market rn easily.

Thread: Severson On Trade Block

You could go either way with Severson. Personally, I agree with what Fitzgerald said, if it’s an offer you can’t refuse (whether that’s a 1st, impact winger, or a or A/B LW prospect) and finding another way to get a 3RHD. Do it.

Thread: Severson On Trade Block

That would be a really bad idea. No reason to get rid of defensive depth, you need 7-8 defensemen available during the playoffs.

Thread: Graves plus an unlikely and risky 3C for 23 24

I don't feel like Blackwood has a future here, let alone offering him a million less than this this year.

I could only see ROR on a 1yr cheap deal to try and set himself up for the following year. However with no connection to NJD, no idea why he'd pick here.

Thread: Honestly Meier to NJ just makes too much sense

I like Meier a lot but *again* this is way too much to give up for him.
There are no comparables for having to give that much value when accounting for the small amount of buyers available to fit his cap and the uncertainty stemming from the combination of his 10m QO and limited team control.

Meier would be great for this team but I'd hate it if the Devils went after him in such a reckless manner.
Filmon and the 3rd could comfortably be removed and the remaining package would still be a significant step above the return Fiala got the Wild and even slightly higher than what DeBrincat returned for the Blackhawks.

Thread: What says you NJD Fan

Luke Hughes can not be top 4 next year. He's awful defensively and needs to be sheltered early in his career. Can't run both Hughes and Nemec as rookies same year. Let Nemec cook another year. Need another 2LHD and a 3C upgrade.

Thread: Blow it up

New Jersey doesn’t need veteran center depth for a playoff push. We need another #1 in net, and a top end finisher on the wing.

Thread: A possible Meier solution

IMO the best Timo option is to wait. We are rockin it right now no need to sell the farm and mess things up. The Sharks suck, and are going to suck for a long time, Timo has to know this. I say we wait and pick him up in the off season. Sign Bratt and then see what we have to fit him in. If he doesn't sign then ok. If the team tanks anytime before the off season and we see that we have to have Timo, then we figure out a way to pay more during FA or make a trade deadline deal. Holt will get his chance at some point this year to prove he is worth keeping, and I think he is. But I would take Bratt over Timo, and but would love to find a way to add Timo in FA.

Thread: Fitz

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Opie</b></div><div>As much as I like Wood, I believe he is the kind of guy that gets considerably overpaid. There is alot of wear on that body & Im of the mind that the resources needed to resign him would be better allocated to acquiring that Top 6 winger they need.

Yes, true. He probably doesn’t get a lot of term, maybe 3 years. Anything below $3m, yes. Between $3-4m maybe. Above $4m, no.

Thread: Fitz

“Left Wing” could be Wood again (or Foote or Gritsyuk or Filmon). Can probably find internally.

“Healthy Scratch” also could be Boqvist. He is looking like a useful 13F

“Better top-6 RW”. Give us one net-front beast, and I think the forward pieces are mostly complete. One area we probably need to look outside the organization to find.

“GK1AB” Dmitri Nikolayev maybe.

Thread: Feedback is appreciated

Yeah, I think the ship has sailed on this one for NJ.

Even just implying that Puljujärvi > Bastian at this point is a stretch. McLeod has also been good, but people are hesitant to give him his props for obvious reasons.

Either way, NJ aren't the ones adding here.

Lol, would be a mistake to pay him that much. Either 8mx8 like Hughes or under or slightly above if it can't be helped. 9-9.3m max if he ends up the top scorer on the team and among the top at the end of the year.

Devils decline. And would be thrilled if Bratt was willing to sign for that.

Thread: I know Dallas you hate this

I don't think DAL will ever entertain the possibility of trading Hintz at his prime, but it's not the worst offer I've seen.

I think Foote and Mukhamadullin would need to be replaced by a NHL ready center to make it more enticing for DAL. Mercer or something like that.
