Classics never die.We really did engage in Pavel Zacha talk in 2025, huh.
I would have kept Zacha. Stupid trade.
I do appreciate the symmetry of whipping boy status transitively going from Zacha to Haula.I would have kept Zacha. Stupid trade.

I think the trade was a good one for NJ. The problem was giving him a raise and 3 years of term.I do appreciate the symmetry of whipping boy status transitively going from Zacha to Haula.
Zacha would have been the same zero he was here if we kept him. The move was fine at the time. Unfortunate that Haula has fully turned into a pumpkin.
Which makes his current 12-22-34 in 59 gp's stat line look very very drab.He's playing with Pasta in Boston. Must not be too shabby.

Well one year...but we would only have had Zacha for one more year anyway.for what purpose? He had worn out his welcome here.
yeah Haula sucks now but he was a useful player for us for a few years.

Devils have 8 guys with double digit goals. All fwd's.
Is the depth scoring issue, really an issue?

Not nearly as much as is said here. Timo is missing a bunch of goals and Haula turning into a 0 hurts. But we’ll be fine with 1 pretty good add or 2 decent ones.Devils have 8 guys with double digit goals. All fwd's.

If your guy riding the 1C with Pastrnak is Pavel Zacha, you're in deep trouble.I can’t believe we’re rehashing Zacha. He’s gone. He was NEVER going to work out here. Riding shotgun with Pasta in Boston helps but we were never getting a better version.
2 days without devils hockey will do that to some people around hereI can’t believe we’re rehashing Zacha. He’s gone. He was NEVER going to work out here. Riding shotgun with Pasta in Boston helps but we were never getting a better version.

Crack is on a whole another level up there in MontrealI found this gem from the Canadiens forum. (To be honest, most Canadiens fans laughed at this offer.)
