Confirmed Trade: [CGY/NJD] Simon Nemec, Maxim Tsyplakov for Etienne Morin, 2026 2nd, 2027 VGK 1st (top 10 protected), 2028 COL 1st (top 10 protected)

[Dread Clawz]

What? Holy overpayment from Calgary

 

[Forge]

Seems fair?

Seeing the thread with a bunch of, "that's all" and "that's a lot" leads me to that conclusion as well

 

[Carlzner]

Holy shit, brutal

 

[TLEH]

I would have done EDM+FLA 1st, junk prospect and a 2nd for that deal.

 

[Benedict Kovalchuk]

New Jersey on rebuild watch, Jack and Luke seen in the suburbs of Minny house hunting.

 

[Realm]

A bunch of late second picks

Seems pretty good

How are 2 1st round picks, late 2nds?

 

[themelkman]

Yikes, seems very high for him.
Glad the sharks opted out

 

[Sergei Shirokov]

Good return for NJ. As much as they are likely late 1sts they are good assets to have in the meanwhile that you could use in trade.

We'll see how Nemec does, its a swing for Calgary but pretty high upside if it works.

 

[KrisLetAngry]

3 2nds more like.

2 1sts and 2 2nds. - looks like only one additional 2nd.

Hopefully Nemec becomes the real deal

 

[sansabri]

damn 1sts are moving

 

[thebeernerd]

Nemec is good in the offensive zone. His defensive numbers speak for themselves, they are rancid and I don't see him really improving on it. Not great in transition either.

 

[dgibb10]

By my estimation that prices Nemec equivalent to 8th-9th overall

 

[NJ DevLolz]

Sunny you sly Devil, you

 

[DrDangles]

Great gamble on Calgary's end here

 

[HabsWhiteKnightLOL]

How are 2 1st round picks, late 2nds?

Bruh Colorado and Vegas

 

[Tasteless Beaver]

This is a bad deal for Calgary, Nemec gets noticeably roasted a lot and has a long way to go. Two 1sts (likely 20s range) is a lot for that kind of er…prospect.

 

[atlanticobserver]

Feels like a hefty return, but tough to gauge how good those picks are going to be. Don't mind CGY betting on the upside. Also explains why there haven't been a ton of deals. This market is pretty wild

 

[gary559]

Don't like this for Calgary at all.

 

[Peasy]

Not sure why Calgary is doing this, especially with them already having parekh.

 

[Walkingthroughforest]

Two lottery tickets for a young top 4 RHD. Pretty happy with this trade

 

[Realm]

Bruh Colorado and Vegas

Again, How is a 1st round pick a LATE 2nd? Call it what it is, a late 1st or if you want to stretch its an EARLY 2nd.

 

[Mobiandi]

Not sure why Calgary is doing this, especially with them already having parekh.

It’s Conroy telling his head coach to get his head out of his ass and play Parekh on the left

 

[MMC]

Flames traded a bunch of bullshit for a potential premium asset. Once again people overrating late 1sts just like with the Tkachuk trade

 

[Jozay]

Great deal for the devils

 

[Captain Mountain]

I understand betting on Nemec's upside, I don't get why Calgary would be the team to make that bet. Don't they have young RHD (even beyond Parekh)?
