Thread: Does this get it done
Well first off, I want to make sure you know that Knyzhov is LTIR'd likely the entire season.

So assuming you're aware of that and factoring him in as a piece for next year, Id say:
Take out Clarke and the 5th Rounder and add a 2024 second with the condition it upgrades to a 2024 1st if the Devils reach the 2023 Stanley cup final with Timo playing in half the games in the playoffs AND Knyzhov is eligible to play in 60 games in the 2023-24 season. Sharks would also add a 2023 third.

Reasoning is Sharks have a ton of 18-22 year old forwards in their system so unless it's a Holtz level forward prospect they'd look to get defense prospects. I know the condition of a first sounds like a high price but the odds that the Devils make the finals AND Knyzhov playing 60+ games is very unlikely, but if it happens then the Devils have gotten a lot of value out of the assets they're getting. Sharks add a 2023 third given the Devils don't have one in this upcoming draft, leveling out the value a bit more.

If I'm the Sharks GM I'd probably be looking at three different options for two D-prospects. In order of preference: 1. Casey & Walsh (unlikely), 2. Casey & Bahl (still unlikely), 3. Mukhamadullin & Walsh (I think is fair), 4. Mukhamadullin & Bahl.

Reasoning for Walsh over Bahl is the Sharks system is thin on the Right side and he would be a massive add to the Cuda.

Thread: Moves made between now and playoffs
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Smitty426</b></div><div>Bratt third liner, love it!

Bahl's already got games in, does Lilj yet?

Fitz is making way too many good moves to be talked into anything from Dubas.

Willie is nice and all but his soft as hell! Severson and a small piece for Willie, sure!

We can go sign Johnny G for nothin but cash for a similar player. He's from Jersey, I think he had Devs PJs when he was a kid, so I'm not worried!</div></div>

1- This is hardly a hot take. Pretty much every scouting pundit says the same things.

2- I have no earthly idea what Liljegren has to do with this.

3- Talked into to getting easily the best player in the deal? You should be so lucky.

4- Wait a minute... if Willy is soft, then how does he have 10g13a in 32 playoff games? Besides, he's not around to throw paws or elbows.

5 - That's true. You could certainly go overpay on a UFA deal for a 29 year old next summer instead of having a 25 year old now. Never mind that he's even "softer" than Nylander.

Thread: Contending
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Clement</b></div><div>Umn no. Because wood wouldn't play on wild. Matthew h is a 23 years old 7th round pick prospect who wouldn't play on wild

Janne doesn't have any value to wild

Wild already has two 1st round pick this year, And islanders pick is worse. Nothing you proposed is getting fiala</div></div>

What a ridiculous way to look at trade

Wood wouldn’t play for Wild? Why would he do that? It is not like he is UFA choosing not to go to MIN, or has NTC and blocks a move to MIN. He is under contract. He’d play.

Hellickson is a 7th rounder? Why does that matter? He played all four years in college and just played on USA team in World Championships. He could be college UFA this summer, and maybe he wouldn’t sign in MIN, but no reason to think/know that now.

Kuokkanen has no value?
I mean, get real.
That is just flat out wrong.

This is a very healthy offer for Fiala
Would be hard to see Wild pass on it.
