Devils discussion (news, notes and speculation) - draft and FA edition

[Comparison Ford]

What are the lottery numbers for tonight by the way?

I have a feeling Haula is gonna get unloaded to a team like Nashville or San Jose before the draft. I think Tom has a good relationship with both teams, I think Nashville could actually use him well.

this feels really good

now i wonder if we can move Hamilton to SJ…

Nashville, Pittsburgh, LA

Oh

 

[Guadana]

Haula was important part of pk, but 5 on 5 he played like 4th liner most of the year. Would be good to sign new center first but at least Fitz made a room.
Hope for swiss friendly magic.

 

[Cheddabombs]

Haula down, Paloot and Dougie you're up next. Clean up time

If Fitzgerald manages to clear out all three in one summer I’ll tattoo his face on my neck.

I doubt we’d get full cap relief for Palat, but something like Palat for Tarasenko where we get a cheaper and shorter contract would be a solid deal.

I’m sure there’s other options around the league too that would work in similar scenarios.

Why so many trusts in canes? Baiting for money?

 

[Richer's Ghost]

I completely missed this. Was it even discussed here? I don't see a thread for it. 4 days ago he signed.

Yeah. He is a big guy who can skate, nice defensively, solid on PK, developed his face off ability. For minimum money its absolutely good sign with no risk if he will not find a roster spot.

 

[Devil X]

One other thing to keep in mind is we can bury MacDermid's contract in the minors if we need an extra 1.15 at some point. Not much but everything counts.

4th in PK toi amongst fwds. Not a big deal really.

The one thing Keefe did lean on him for a little was his face off ability.

Its a same ice time as Bratt has and Haula has near the best pk numbers in the league.
Huyol.

both palat and dougie can make it tough to move them with their 10team tradelists. you just can hope, they would be okay to see something else and play in sunny cali. before they ride into the sunset. like last exit san jose.

both could make sense for them and cap shouldnt be much of a issue.

Dougie is only worth moving if we are getting Quinn Hughes.

We have no one that can generate offense like him.

Palat and Mercer should really be the next to go.
