Yeah Fitz must either be drunk on optimism after this deal or he’s giving Jesper the bag he wants to be that definitive

I hope it's the latter and if it is, it will DEFINITELY be a bit more than Jack's (and all that talk about how we can't sign players to contracts more than Jack's 'cause we would alienate him or some crap, will finally end)

Watching Fitzgerald with Amanda...

He's gloating too.

 

[Hisch13r]

Emond just looks like a goalie to me

 

[jkrdevil]

I'm also more then fine we pulled the trigger without the contract.

Negotiations could have hung the whole deal up and opened the door for a mystery team to swoop in.

We can negotiate at our leisure now

I wouldn’t be surprised if there were “unofficial” talks where they already know the parameters. We will never find out though.

I can’t understand the external people out on the main boards calling this a bad return for SJS. I think they did very, very well here.

Can you blame him!?

So are the comets now Calder cup favourites with all the added depth players?

"signing Jack, Nico....and Jesper will be next"

!!!!

"And this guy too behind me"

 

[Hockey Sports Fan]

I'm so hyped on not losing Holtz or Nemec that I'm not even gonna bother to look up who all these other JAGs are.

They did and they didn't. They didnt get any prime assets, but they got a LOT of assets.

There totally was some mild tampering going on

I think they did good but I probably would've targeted Holtz instead. I think Holtz would've made more sense for both sides than Zetterlund.

none of em will ever be in NJ in all likelihood anyways

Already getting marketing emails to buy tickets thanks to the trade

Honestly, it just sucks that flight prices and exchange rates are horrible right when the Devils get good, and I managed to have a lot of vacations to see Devils games when they sucked and it was cheap as hell.

 

[Better Call Sal]

Rupper!!!!

Are they really? I haven't ventured over the main boards yet, thought they'd be saying the opposite and that we gave up too much. I thought the Sharks did well, it was quantity over quality but I think they got a number pieces that can realistically contribute in the NHL.

He f***ing should. He turned this ship around and now we are sailing to glory

All the depth players are pretty bad, so no

 

[Zajacs Bowl Cut]

WE EVEN GOT AUSTRALIAN TIMO

 

[JimEIV]

Well, technically they’re the pieces someone, somewhere, in theory, has been calling for in Adirondack.

I used really like going to games in Glens Falls. There was a brewery right around the corner

 

[devilsfan35]

We still have holtz, Hughes and nemec!

 

[Saugus]

There totally was some mild tampering going on

I would be disappointed if Hischier and Siegenthaler didn't do any tampering while they were on vacation together,
