So from an NJ Standpoint, I'm fine with the shakeup of getting rid of Marino since we have too many RHD's and I do love Colton's play but I definitely value Marino higher. He's a legit top 4 shutdown dman who can provide a little offense here and there. Marino also goes through random stretches where he's dominant but not consistently enough to be considered a game breaker. Colton on the other hand is a 3rd line guy who provides grit with a pinch of offense. NJ doesn't really have a use for Manson since they're so deep at RHD and are really only seeking a shutdown LD that fits in the top 4 and I'd move Siegenthaler for that but it has to be a longterm viable replacement option or I'd just run with Siegenthaler again and hope his issues last year were just some mild struggles amidst the bigger team issues. That being said, Colorado adds if its just the Marino for Colton and I don't think Holtz is on the table unless its a top 6 version of Colton or a Legit 1A to elite goaltender. NJ would add it it was either of those.

Thread: Lottery Miracle and Asset Value Breakdown
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Bcarlo25</b></div><div>let's just think this through logically - you're asking boston to move an elite asset, and you're talking about adding B tier stuff. that doesn't work. Maybe if Boston was in full rebuild and were just trying to accumulate assets, but that's not the case. want an elite asset? give an elite asset. this isn't close. Wouldn't even the bruins front office having a meeting about it.</div></div>

That’s because Holtz is the A-level asset. Hes got top 6 scorer potential written all over him and has developed fantastic this year, if by some miracle NJ won the draft lottery, he just becomes an extra. You’re getting:
1 - A-level asset
2 - B-level assets
2 - C-level assets
In exchange for 1 A-level asset (who might not even resign a and has expressed discontent) in a position where you have excess strength, you get 5 assets (and potentially more) to fill out the rest of your roster and restock your completely empty prospect pool.
