Devils discussion (news, notes and speculation) - 2026-27 offseason part III

[longislanddevil]

There was some prior talk about Barzal being available but haven’t heard much on him lately.

 

[Better Call Sal]

Would’ve been fine with Tuch but likely not at a full term, double digit cap hit.

Keep pursuing the other perceived targets out there.

 

[Devs3cups]

Its not going to be that challenging.

You people overreact to literally everything.

I literally just said Washington is making improvements lol, they added Kyrou and potentially Tuch. That's some pretty good moves for them that'll make the Metro tougher, hopefully the team will be ready. How was I overreacting lol.

You overreact more to people's comments than people are actually overreacting. Everything somewhat critical or going against the team's interest is an "overreaction" to you. It's unfortunate.

Washington may be sneaky good if they get good goaltending . May be a 2012 Devils type of season in terms of having good veteran wingers but a bit weak down the middle

The east is still open besides the Panthers and hurricanes. The devils just need to make the right adjustments

If Thompson keeps going, they're a challenge. Carolina didn't have that good of a C core and they got it done, sometimes it doesn't matter that much. Caroline was stronger 5v5 though. I guess we'll see how it goes.

It looks like by Friday, Sunny is probably going to make a move. Regarding Quinn, we should have a better idea on where he stands. I doubt we have to wait for July 1st. Because Billy G., has three options. Quinn resigns with Minny. If he’s not resigning he can pull the trigger on a deal with the Devils before the 12th pick. The other option is to hold on to Quinn and try and win a cup and have a year to talk him into resigning. The question is he willing to gamble on losing him for zero return? As for trading him to another team, I don’t see that many teams giving up major assets for a player that probably won’t resign and will be free at the end of the year to go play with his brothers. Either way, Friday is going to be very interesting!

Looks like Tuch is going to WSH as well. Thats 2 of our targets that I believe they are taking. Still dont think their C core is good enough but nice addition on the wing

Man they are a bunch of big bodies on the wing there. Tough to play against

Oh, I would be buzzing if that happened. Just buzzing.

I’m not sure why you’re saying this considering there is tons of smoke from multiple NHL insiders that a Robertson extension in Dallas is unlikely.

I’m not saying he’s coming to NJ, but a wise bet would be him leaving Dallas.

I can’t say anything more than what I’ve said.

I fear as if NHL GMs have been sleeping on the job - need trades

 

[HoliksGhost]

I mean, lol if he isnt moving he isnt making a good arguement for it turning down 13 million. AAV.

Where did it say that ?

 

[SteveCangialosi123]

Likely FAR to pricey for us here.,

I’ll take Timo on the rest of his deal over that, even off a down year.

 

[Devils Trap]

Agreed - although I would like both players in our Top 6. We need one more player for our Top 6 IMO

Grits - Nico - Timo
Jesper - Jack - XXXX

The depth needs help though and I expect alot of moving pieces there

 

[Devils Trap]

Looking at our forward core, I dont see how Mercer / Noesen arent traded.

Grits - Nico - Timo
Jesper - Jack - XXXX
XXXX - Glass - Lenni / Brown
XXXX - Bjug - Lenni / Brown

There just isnt room for all of them. Noesen and Mercer both right handed shots means we wont play them on the LW most likely.

Id rather take a risk with Lenni at 900k then keep the cap hits

I guess its possible they think Brown works with Jack and Jesper and move Timo back to LW. But then it just still needs 1 Top 6 trade

Timo - Nico - XXXX
Jesper - Jack - Brown
Grits - Glass - Lenni
XXXX - Bjug - Noesen !??

 

[Dougie Donuts]

Sadly, the only way I see Cangi coming back is if he gets out of his MLS/Apple TV deal. This seems unlikely.

Call up Matt Loughlin. Demote radio boy LaGreca.

 

[Bleedred]

Looks like the same number of preseason games as every year. Only starting and ending about a week sooner.

I was under the impression that they would cut out two preseason games/ a week of training camp to cut the crap and get into the 84 game season.

[Devils Trap]

Said in the other thread. Love the player, hate the contract. Im okay with missing out on him

 

[TrufleShufle]

Feel like at this point should have one of those mega threads... so many moves and all have implications that could impact us, by way of players off the board or possible targets popping up.
