It`s a strange trade for both sides.

I don't particularly think it's strange from devils perspective. You have to remember that this is a business. If Bratt has 0 intention of signing an extension, and Meier has expressed that interest, then it makes sense to explore that option.

Obviously losing Bratt hurts, but if he doesn't wanna extend then..it'd make sense I guess. We wouldn't really know that though probably until later.

 

[SteveCangialosi123]

If no Holtz I imagine Z, Gritsyuk/Casey/Muk, 1st?

 

[theoptimist]

Imagine if it was just a Bratt for Meier swap. That would be considered a "blockbuster" deal I think. I'm not sure how I'd feel about a trade like that though.

Bratt is better than Meier

 

[Guadana]

Nah...he was easily one of my least favorite posters on this board - it's much better here without him. I have been on this site forever without blocking anyone, but he was the first poster I was considering. Really glad that I didn't though, as I engaged with him that memorable night when he switched allegiances and that was some of the most fun I've had on these boards.

there is an option to block people? now Im understand why some prospect topics arnt popular.

 

[JrFischer54]

Exactly. Most likely a general idea/philosophy thing. Not exact.

for some reason i really think it’s gonna be Sharangovich and a 1st.

Lol that’s Kovy level return 2.0

 

[Bleedred]

I'm pretty sure it's us and no idea who or what is coming back

That's all I'm saying

Can't sell anybody out, which I'm 100% sure I never posted this person's name or said what he does for the Sharks, other than he's not a management/front office person. Just a long time employee going back to the Dean Lombardi era.

If I say too much more I'll probably be giving away his identity or at least what exactly he does for the team,

Says if it happens today he won't find out until (and IF) it becomes official, as it's not a game day or even a practice day.

Once again, this person is not involved in hockey ops/management/front office of any kind and that's all I can say about him. He's not apart of the decision making braintrust and isn't in Grier's office or war room or wherever he's holed up right now.

Zetterlund, Muk, 1st seems likely to me. I can't imagine they want Gritsyuk with the uncertainty there and I think they'd prefer Muk to Casey.

 

[SteveCangialosi123]

If they pass on Holtz I really hope he turns into a 30 goal scorer just to rub it in those main board San Jose fans’ faces

than we should use him in playoff and trade after. his QO isn`t big. from business perspective.

I hope you have some powers because that would just be stupid.

1st Sharangovich Stillman

Do it Lou

Just imagine to have him here on Nico wing and scoring on rebounds on Meier`s shots. This is a huge potential for new Bergeron with Machand and Pasta line.

 

[jkrdevil]

Lol that’s Kovy level return 2.0

Maybe not even that. Atlanta did get Oduya turned the pick into Buff

To set the table for Timo Meier, #sjsharks turned down some big offers in recent days. Team 1: 1st rd pick, 2nd rd pick, top prospect Team 2: 1st rd pick, recent 1st rd pick, mid-tier prospect Both teams had other asks - cap or roster considerations - but this will be sizable.

 

[HBK27]

As much as I love Casey, he's our most redundant prospect since we have plenty of offensive defenseman, so him being the main prospect in the deal wouldn't be bad.

I really don't want to see Muk included. Looking forward to having him and Grits on the team.

Your source is the SJ Sharkie who got stuck in the roof, isn’t it?

Bratt is better than Meier

Better is subjective. Fitz might or might not agree with you.
