Think Hanifin would be a plan to bridge the gap on the blue line. Allows Hughes, Nemec to grow while still having a elite D overall and even when they hit their stride, Hanifin would still not be ancient.

If Mercer has to be moved for finances or to address other positions fine....but it better not be for a 34 year old anything...let alone a goalie.

12 year age difference is a 100 in hockey years.

These "sources" have not actually named what the package would be at all. The only hint was I think Servelli a week ago saying Holtz would be involved.

Mercer has been just pure HF speculation and the consensus is largely that the only way Calgary gets Mercer is if Noah Hanifin with a contract extension is coming to NJ.

Mercer was also rumored for Timo. Until it didn’t happen.

Mercer involved in the Markstrom trade is the epitome of “YOU WANTED A GOALIE? YOU GOT IT! AT THE PRICE OF MERCER+ !”

That would be like when Matt Bevilaqua ran to Richie after they shot Chrissy and put him in a coma.

“I thought you’d be happy?! He hit your niece!”.

Does anyone know which side we are shooting twice? Home games we shoot twice to the right, would it be the same for tomorrow?

I’ll probably ask this again in the GDT, but is anyone planning some kind of meet up at the game tomorrow?

I don't get Calgary fans thinking it'd be done after the game, Hanifin in tomorrow makes us a better team v the Flyers regardless of how tired he is. The juice of adding him in an outdoor game as your first Devils game would be worth it, not sure why Fitz would wait after. This isn't last year where they were top 3 and could wait for Timo whenever it happened. They need points ASAP

Hmm what to watch...
We got #3 BU vs Providence
#5 Maine vs #17 UNH
#7 Quinnipiac vs Union. Don't really watch ECAC teams...

#1 BC vs #11 UMass

And Northeastern vs UMass Lowell

I'm leaning toward BC vs UMass

That's a huge trade. I still think it's far more likely it's just not done considering all the parts.

If that's even what we are doing.
