sounds Like cbj just flat out offered more $. I’m fine with fitz sticking to his guns at what sounds like was likely around 9-9.5.
Jack Hughes was on pace for 94 in an 82 game season with this dogshit powerplay (granted when he was around the PP was OK).

in his mind that is how it works. Take a player's stats from a different team apply them to your team and this is exactly what would happen. How can you have a serious conversation with someone who think like that?

I'd like to at least get Nino Niederreiter. I think he's a good fit for the team.

They could have just not qualified Zacha and let him walk. Not that difficult. It wasn't some heist trading him for a bottom 6 forward on an expiring contract.

I mean an elite 80+ point player on this team immediately puts us into the playoff discussion, all else constant. No?

I am not sure why Fiala is continuously getting brought up...even if the 'only re-signing in LA' thing wasnt true
LA traded a mid first round pick and decent prospect for him. We didnt have the pick equivalent unless you wanted to move #2 for him and I most certainly did not.

Right now the core is there for better or worse the foundation is in place. You have to surround them with some legit nhl talent to get the most out of them. I know people on here love shara but to me that’s not top line talent. Have a nice foundation and a bunch of unknowns. Team is a bunch of kids that only know losing. And only know acquiring reclamation project players and hope they turn into more.

Hughes is a budding superstar - not saying anything to the contrary - but I just take issue with folks pretending JG doesn't immediately make this team better.
Reeks of copium to me. Yes, this contract probably sucks in years 5-7, hell maybe even earlier. But, assuming he stays healthy, he would've immediately, drastically, improved this roster next year.

I’d take the current Jets braintrust over the Devils without even hesitation. And I realize they haven’t won jack yet either but they at least look like they have a plan and are proactive. The Devils continue to be reactive and wait for the perfect move for the perfect age to fall out of the sky and hit them on the head a la Hall or Dougie who nobody else bid on.

It really is silly. I’m bummed, but it’s upsetting because we’ve built a really nice core and he could help us get to the next level. The idea that we’re some wasteland is so dumb.

As someone who grew up in the central part of the state, it's moments like these that make me have a dislike for people in South Jersey who root for Phily teams. It's despicable for a player born and raised in the state to not want to play for the team of his home state but would rather play for Phily instead. It's such bullshit.

That’s great and all and great bratt had a career year and so did nico. I do wonder if that was helped by the fact the season was over by New Years.

on a team that needed a (proven) 3C, yes it was.

Certainly not a wasteland, just fighting an uphill battle to sniff the playoffs again.

Lol when is north jersey going to produce a star player that will want to come home for his hometown devils. I mean dang even Arizona produced matthews.
Yes, JG makes the team better next year. The issue is, and the issue I had with the move this morning so it's not copium, is that it doesn't add a new dimension to the team. It's not a great fit. Yeah, the team's better, but they have to move a bunch of pieces around and probably keep certain players away from other players when making lines. It would've been exciting. But then making this into a Cup contender in a few years becomes that much more challenging.
It wasn't, but you can go ahead and pretend like it was. Bratt was having a great season well before the season went into the toilet.
