Whats left for them? JVR?

Maybe schmaltz? That’s about it

"How was your weekend"

"Great, I was on my computer all Sunday refreshing Twitter and this hockey forum to see if my favourite team traded for a good player. Posted a lot of memes, it was fun"

This is why you lie, to not get shunned.

But you're Canadian. Isn't that a normal Sunday up there?

 

[Bcap88]

I just love that Fitz thinks it's time to go for it. Exciting times

And we got to keep all of Hughes nemec mercer Casey and holtz

Yeesh

I bet they’re banging on St. Louis’s door asking about Schenn and maybe Buch. Don’t know if the Blues would consider dealing either.

I think Buch is their best bet, but I don't think the Blues will trade him. They may have just struck out.

 

[Peter Sidorkiewicz]

Wait for the extension to avoid jinxing it

And wait for next season. He may switch to 28 if Severson leaves via free agency

He does, and he still sees the future. I like that a lot.

You're very right, it's either this or going up north to your igloo for the weekend by dog sled

Today was a miserable day, but the outcome was glorious.

Rags board completely melting down.

Hopes Meier will hold out next year, Bratt is a goner. Etc

What if the real return on this trade, was the friends we made along the way

All things they know won’t happen. I’ll never understand putting so much negative energy on other franchises. I say the same about our fans.

 

[Bcap88]

Just got to think all the things that went “wrong” for the devils actually helped us get to this point because if the shoe is on the other foot in any of the following scenarios we don’t get meier. Johnny hockey chooses nj over cbj, flames chooses nj’s package over floridas, montreal drafts wright over slafkovsky.

None of that window just opening bullshit

Bratt is expendable now. If you can lock down Meier.

This is so wrong, woof

 

[Hisch13r]

We did this because our window just opened.

 

[Emperoreddy]

Nope. Fitz sounds like he thinks we can make a run right now

 

[Richer's Ghost]

None of that window just opening bullshit

Someone left the gate open again?

 

[njdevils1982]

Mediocre fact: I bowled against Fagan, the other guy in the clip, many times. Fantastic bowler.

when i bowl my technique is a 12 lb ball and a loft about 1/3 to 1/2 the lane down ....the thud is amazing. the ball just slides straight in that direction with minimal spin...works for me

(played bocce all my life)

Ideally, we want to keep both and contend for the next 5-8 years with a top 6 that is entirely locked in.

 

[Guttersniped]

Wait, this “#NHL writer” ran the numbers and it’s a “extremely bad” trade for both sides lol.

Damn Meier's a rental that we can't keep beyond this year?? That sucks man.

 

[Tundra]

But now with Meier in the fold, the desperation to sign Bratt isn't primary. We can pivot if we want to.
