theyre acting like someone cut off our bahlsThe plan always seemed to be to go get a top 4 LD, which is the right call.
That was going to push Bahl out of the lineup so he was expendable.

I think he's already better than Siegs and if Marino doesn't suck ass again, that's a good pairing.The Devils need someone better than Graves. Ideally, Luke is 3rd pair D this year, and eventually he gets good enough to push Siegenthaler to third pair.
He sounded like he really didn't like the move and was being more diplomatic to me?Fair analysis really, Cory probably doesn't know our farm system enough to know the 'stopgap' was by design with all the younger goalies though.
Was definitely this boards plan. Was Fitz on record saying the same?The plan always seemed to be to go get a top 4 LD, which is the right call.

No I don't recall.Welcome to the "Devils player never mentioned as a Core player" club.
Remember my bitching about Jesper Bratt not viewed by Fitz as part of the core way back when?
He's got 2 years left on his deal.This goalie's career already peaked, why on earth would you give up your 10th pick for a 34 year old goalie? Isn't this goalie hitting free agency after this season? I could care less about giving up Bahl, but kind of feel Fitzpatrick through that asset out to save his job.
Really stupid trade, sorry. This team is nowhere close to competing with Panthers or Oilers right now. We could have used that pick for a strong younger player. Our GM is looking like a dumb rookie.
I believe Fitz has been on record that they are looking for a top 4 dman. Given we have 3 top 4 guys on the right, I think that has to mean LDWas definitely this boards plan. Was Fitz on record saying the same?
I think it could have been Bahl or Sieg's. I wonder if Fitz or Calgary had a preference.
2 years from now, Daws Schmid and Poulter will all be viewed significantly different then they are now. Granted they could be viewed as guys incapable of playing in the NHL. But the hope, a not unrealistic one, is one of those guys will be ready.He sounded like he really didn't like the move and was being more diplomatic to me?
Big guys breakdown, short term solution, right back in the same position two years from now....that sounds like corporate speak for holy shit this was a desperate move.
Lebrun hear mentioned Devils are interested in Dillon:Was definitely this boards plan. Was Fitz on record saying the same?

In two years Malek will be ready, ITS HIS TURN2 years from now, Daws Schmid and Poulter will all be viewed significantly different then they are now. Granted they could be viewed as guys incapable of playing in the NHL. But the hope, a not unrealistic one, is one of those guys will be ready.
The best part was " his numbers fell off at the end of the year after they traded their defense"...2 years from now, Daws Schmid and Poulter will all be viewed significantly different then they are now.

It remains the Devils pick because it's TOP-TEN Protected.Anyone know what happens to the 2025 1st in the event it's a top 10 pick?

oh...yeah.I don’t know for sure, but usually would transfer to the next year as an unprotected 1st I believe
I really don't care about next year's 1st, nor do I care about the 10OA, or Bahl. Honestly, if someone came along and said we would be guaranteed to win 3 cups in the next 8 years if we had to trade any or all of our stars tomorrow to do so, I wouldn't love it but I'd do it.

There is not a very real chance that this pick ends up in the 11 to 15 range. Even for a doomcaster like you, this is a ridiculous thing to say.
Lebrun hear mentioned Devils are interested in Dillon:
There was also this report below:
I take the second report to mean:
Top six forward (Arvidsson, Henrique, etc. type)
Bottom six forward (Carrier, Trevon, Stenlund, etc.)
Top four defender (Dillon, DeMelo, McNabb?)
Bottom four defender (Smith, Cole, Kulikov)
If we add two more defenders like Fitz is planning, there’s no room for Bahl.
Unfortunately there is.There is not a very real chance that this pick ends up in the 11 to 15 range. Even for a doomcaster like you, this is a ridiculous thing to say.
This seems likely cause the 2025 2nd is tied to to the Jake Allen trade.I don’t know for sure, but usually would transfer to the next year as an unprotected 1st I believe
It was a desperate move. Not sure if anyone would say different.He sounded like he really didn't like the move and was being more diplomatic to me?

Who Markstrom? I thought part of the issue was Calgary was jerking him around and he lost his edge mentally.The best part was " his numbers fell off at the end of the year after they traded their defense"...
Lol wait until he sees the defense here
If you think Calgary’s defense was significantly better than ours last year you’re just being willfully ignorant. In the most basic stats, they had similar shots against per game and we only allowed 4 more 5v5 goals against with objectively much worse goaltending.The best part was " his numbers fell off at the end of the year after they traded their defense"...
Lol wait until he sees the defense here
We are again. So yes, if everything possible goes wrong again, we’ll stink. So will everyone else. Ridiculous to go around worrying about that possibility though.Why? People were saying the exact same thing last year. We were one of the favorites to win the Cup last year lol.
