Confirmed with Link: Devils acquire Meier (50% retained) and four others from the Sharks for 2023 1st, conditional 2024 1st, Mukhamadullin, Okhotiuk, Zetterlund & Johnsson

15+ pages of the trade and still no clue what's heading to SJ. It's been that kinda day.

We get to enjoy the journey a little longer. Summer of Kovalchuk vibes

 

[None Shall Pass]

Why not both?

A fair point.

15 pages and no cup.jpg too!

"some pieces in the organization"? lmao, thanks for narrowing that down

This is worse than waiting for the Kovalchuk extension announcement

 

[TrufleShufle]

Future considerations, future considerations, future considerations

 

[NjDevsRR]

I'm hearing that Mason Geertsen is NOT involved in the trade.

 

[Lou is God]

Imagine what Sharks fans are going through right now? At least me know our prize.

 

[Blackjack]

Yeah so the fact that it's been an hour since the trade was leaked and we don't know who we're actually trading means that either Fitz runs an incredibly tight ship or that most NHL insiders are completely bunk.

They’re trying to reach someone so they don’t get blindsided on Twitter. Wood is probably at a bitcoin conference or something.

 

[Unknown Caller]

Nothing will match the meltdown that happened when the Devils traded Yegor Rykov to the Rangers. Not even Luke Hughes going to the Sharks.

LOL No

Nothing will be worse than that

Or Fitz doesn't have Zetterlunds number.

 

[FinnishDevil]

Hearing there will be pieces going back to the Sharks. Or maybe not. Situation remains fluid

Hearing theres been a trade. Could have players involved. Working on the details.

Its ok to take Harrington. SJ needs to open 50 roster space

SJ were at 49/50 now at 47. Assuming we give them Johnsson and probably 1 guy on ELC/RFA contract so they stay at 49. Maybe 2 guys but I doubt it because for some reason no team ever goes up to a full 50, few teams at 49 rn.

 

[Zajacs Bowl Cut]

I guarantee they just havent been able to get ahold of the players that are part of the deal on our end and thats why the details havent been leaked yet, out out of respect

FYI it IS 2am in Russia right now, if that means anything....

I have a very faint memory of that trade.

It's passed me now, like a popcorn fart.

 

[Hisch13r]

Look at how good he was with Karlsson. There's your new 1LD. Put him with Dougie lol

 

[njdevils1982]

So, current libations? I’m buying…

you cant afford my liver

 

[StevenToddIves]

Wow no Nemec or Mercer. Positively shocked.

I'm certain Luke Hughes, Mercer and Nemec were cited by NJ management as untouchable from the outset of negotiations. Fitzgerald is trying to build a sustainable winner, and doing an outstanding job of it.

Shara is napping

Correct. Given the time it's taking, I would say the most likely person to be involved would be Mukhamadullin, as it is late at night in Russia right now, but that's just me speculating. Might be other holdups and not every twenty-something is as addicted to their phone as I might imagine.

The Rangers will have Aaron Judge/random Giants players/celebs in the crowd for their home playoff games... can we fly in Roger Federer to rally the Rock?

They'll have Jimmy Fallon, piss drunk, with no clue what the score is, asking his hangers on where is that Messier guy and why he isn't playing. Then they'll do a 15 second cringeworthy jumbotron skit where he inhales a hot dog, chants "here we go rangers" despite being prompted 2 minutes earlier that it's lets go rangers, go for a Jimmy Dugan piss break and promptly irish exit his way out to his limo during the 2nd intermission and never find out or care what the result of the game was. If anyone asks him what he was up to he'll say the garden for some Knicks game or something

That's your celebrity rag fan in a nutshell
