[NJDevs26]

Well anyone know anything about this guy? Bleed? Must be a highly rated prospect to give two high-ish picks for him.

Getting that Swiss guy to help Nico settle in

 

[MartyOwns]

according to the internet:

Mirco Müller is a smooth skating two-way defenseman with impressive mobility. Has strong puck-moving abilities and combined with decent passing-skills he is capable to push a team’s transition game. He is poised with the puck, but needs to learn to take quicker decisions as he tends to hold on to the puck to long, while all his pass-options closing. Despite his size, he doesn’t use his body to his advantage as you rarely see him hit other players. Reads the play well, plays a smart defensive game in his own end and keeps his actions simple.

I hope it's Boston 2nd and not Devils 2nd.

Otherwise, not bad.

Likely means we go 4-4 and he's protected now though.

Did we just get fleeced?

Confirmation that we are picking Hischier because this guy is Swiss

 

[NJDevs26]

Yeah you have to leave him protected, so it's either byebye Moore or byebye Merrill. The latter doesn't really bother me although it would have been nice if they could have somehow flipped Merrill to not lose him for nothing.

 

[Sgt Brylin]

Did we just get fleeced?

No, we did not.

 

[Nemec]

Wth ? Seems like a hose job

 

[Team Concept]

Doesn't appear to have too much offensive upside. For a former 1st round pick he hasn't put up even halfway decent offensive stats. The best he did in junior was 31 points in 63 games. The fact that he is Swiss is interesting. Could make the transition easier for Nico.

I feel like we got fleeced only time will tell I guess

 

[Normal Devil]

Did we just get fleeced?

I don't think so .. guy was a 1st rd pick (#18) in the 2013 draft.

 

[Zippy316]

Did we just get fleeced?

Definitely payed a higher price than we should've.

But with the excess of picks, I can't complain. Would be nice if it's the BOS 2nd and Nashville 4th.

Wouldn't be that mad if it were these picks but if it includes our 2nd then I will be slightly annoyed

It was Bos 2nd and Nash 4th

 

[devsfan4life]

Hmmmm... not sure about this one yet. He's young and somewhat unproven. A little surprised we gave up that 2nd.

 

[NJDevs26]

It's the lower 2/4...definitely still seems like a gamble, especially since you have to use a slot on him.

 

[Hisch13r]

And Beaulieu only got a 3rd...

 

[R8Devs]

It's the higher 2...definitely seems like a gamble, especially since you have to use a slot on him.

no it isn't. the higher one is 36. they're giving the 49 up

 

[Zippy316]

It was Bos 2nd and Nash 4th

Just saw that.

More than we should've but it's a young (hopefully) NHL ready LD who is still a promising prospect, even though he's struggled of late.

Definitely a worthy risk for the Devils.

Based on what

22 years old
18th overall pick in 2013

[Blender]

At least it's the Boston 2nd and not ours.
