[Devils Trap]

41st Overall in 2015
3rd Rounder in 2016

this was quick

 

[Kensu]

not even the highest 2nd round pick good trade

 

[blink]

I'm on board with this. NHL ready player who hasn't reached his prime yet. Cost controlled as well.

I like it.

 

[Zippy316]

Kyle Palmieri for Jagr essentially.

I love it.

 

[Zajacs Bowl Cut]

Jersey kid!

 

[NJDevs26]

Even though he gets a bit overrated here he fills a need at RW, I'm actually fine with this...of course, now we're down to only one 2016 third

 

[Devilsgrl35]

We traded Jagr for Palmieri. Love it!

 

[Marshal Rochambeau]

Great trade

 

[ForeverJerseyGirl]

Good deal. Nice to have a Jersey kid on the team.

 

[New Jersey Devils]

Great trade. Jersey kid to boot. Nice move by Shero. Like the way he is starting off his tenure.

 

[Devils Trap]

Well..

We get Belesky's rights as well apparently

Hope we don't overpay him.

In the right deal, maybe.

Would be a very cheap deal to get the both of them.

 

[Cheddabombs]

The guy is pretty much an established NHL-er, could honestly be a top 6 player for us next year. I take this deal everyday of the week, I don't care how deep this draft may be it's still a risk to say the 41st pick would even make the NHL, let alone our 3rd next year.

Great, great move!

 

[Zajacs Bowl Cut]

Palmieri was a 0.5 PPG player playing essentially 3rd line minutes last year

 

[Richer's Ghost]

if true, flip Belesky's rights tomorrow for another pick.

 

[tANNERRRR54]

Trade doesn't make much sense from an Anaheim point of view. Already low on wingers and all we got were draft picks.

Hopefully Palmieri will do something for you guys. I pretty much lost faith in him. He is extremely streaky but when he is on he can snipe left and right. Only 1 goal in 16 playoff games this season. Very underwhelming. His total points for the season looks good on paper but it comes in strides. He will have a very good 5 games or so then disappear completely for another 5 games.

 

[Devilsfan992]

Great trade... LOVE Palmieri!! NJ native!

 

[Zajacs Bowl Cut]

Palmieri's cap hit is $1,466,666 this year and then he will be RFA next summer

He'll fit right in then, go hand in hand with Henrique

Just wondering, who were his linemates for most of last season?

 

[Missionhockey]

What a steal.

Does anybody have Palmieri's contract specifics? I'm wondering why they let him go so easily.

BTW Ray, if you want to warm yourself to the NJ faithful, this is a damn good start.
