I doubt he has to reach out to any team. He will be signed quickly as a UFA

He shoots right and wants his biggest deal. Doubt it happens.
There is absolutely no chance of this happening. Our right side is full.
I would have Foote as the #13 or #14 forward and if he can show to be better, great, but he just missed an entire season.
I'm all for adding some bottom six grit.
That's why I worded it the way I did. It's up to the Devils if they be willing to trade Marino and sign Pesce. My speculation is that Pesce wants to sign with the team that is close to where he grew up at since he may not likely sign with the 'Canes.
??? I speculated that a player reaches out to a team he wants to play for even though there is no need to fill the position.

Not sure if this is the proper thread but has anyone looked into the Czech games yet in detail about going to the games?
It could happen. I just see him as being heavily pursued immediately as an UFA and his agent is certainly going to push the big overpayment some team is going to offer him. If Pesce reaches out to NJ it’s not to get maximum AAV.

Trading #10 for a goalie will be a mistake. My hot take is that non-home-grown goalies do not deserve big contracts. Saros or Ullmark are not worth #10 and $8M for 5/6 years. Holtz is the former first rounder we should be trading for a goalie. New coach and 3 goalie triangle is what we need to be happy again.

Pesce throws a remarkably low amount of hits. Like even less than Marino. I’m good on right handed D. It’s a logjam even before Casey.
I Fitz sort of backed himself into a corner with his comments. I expect him to add some goalie he sees as a 1A goalie. I just hope he doesn’t get completely fleeced

Interesting to think about
if Fitz will decide to pick winger, especially right winger (Iginla LW, Nygard, Chernyshov, Sennecke are right wingers, im not here to talk about wich player he will draft, just imagine he will pick some winger), and with Arseniy&Lenny in prospect pool, its interesting will he be open for a trade of Holtz to the team who needs hear/now and cheap like Islanders or Vegas for their 1st round pick. Of course Holtz looks like a better option for a trade for NHLer(and I find it as a better trade option if player is right) and overall Holtz doesnt look like a player with this value now, especially after Fitz promoting campaign of Holtz.
But lets imagine offer is there, phone is ringing, GM is calling and wants to offer 18-19 pick here and now, you dont know will you have an option on the market to trade Holtz for a good player, offer with the pick is actual only for five minutes. Would you trade Holtz, or would you save him for trades on the market or would you prefer to save him for the next season?

Don’t mind MacDermid back. I do mind three years though…that’s insane.

If it were me, I would not. I've put in time and money to develop Holtz. I would not trade him to start all over again with another teenager. If a player for player trade cannot be facilitated, I'd bring back Holtz.
I think we can market Holtz as a project, and I'm sure some teams would be open to acquiring him, especially if we add a few other pieces.

This is where I'm at. I can't imagine too many ppl were lining up for his services in such a way that we'd need to give three years.

Got to love Fitz fighting with Bratt's agent for years to shave some of the final cap hit only to use the savings from him accepting a deal below 8 on a guy they can only play 5 min a game. At least the contract can mostly be buried in the AHL and the term probably prevents another team from claiming him on waivers so Fitz doesn't do another move like this
