Confirmed with Link: Meier, Harrington, 3 prospects, Col's '24 5th to Devils for 2023 1st, Zetterlund, Johanson, Okhotiuk, Mukhamadullin, conditional 2024 1st, '24 7th

[Internazionale]

Several twitter feeds reporting no Nemec and Mercer included in the deal.

This is the right move, but..

f*** this team and everything it represents. Cheering for a team to lose sucks.

I feel you, but almost every team has to go through this at some point. The biggest problem is that it took too long for our front office/ownership to accept the inevitability of needing to rebuild.

But we had a damn good long run. Every team is going to pay the price for that eventually.

Lol what is happening

im gonna puke

GMMG: "We felt this was addition by subtraction. And in order to subtract good pieces, you have to give up good pieces so we had no choice but to include Harrington. While painful, this trade makes us better in the long run."

Yea as much as I want one of those pieces I don't think we are getting one

Why do we need a 3rd team? For what? For WHO

Karlsson to Oilers at the same time for some reason (E5)

I know right. It should have begun a couple of years ago. Hopefully we can get excited for the draft and the future.

Btw, not going through the 2016 Finals run or anything.

Fabbro

Grier is just going to do all his trades in one go.

 

[fasterthanlight]

Fabbro

Fabbro is Randdo Broo (but so was kunin, wouldn't be surprised)

 

[Grave]

Trading Timo before Couture, Karlsson or Hertl should be a hate crime.

 

[Kcoyote3]

He has value. Couture has minimal. Hertl has some. Karlsson has more.

Devil's can't actually take on a 50% retained Meier let alone a Harrington also.

 

[Jargon]

Why do we need the Devils to get Fabbro?

It may be Fitz doing this.

I just assumed a roster player or two were coming back.

This is what bothers me the most out of anything.

 

[fasterthanlight]

tradeception --- CHI makes a trade in the middle of our trade lol

 

[WSS11]

This is what bothers me the most out of anything.

Hertl being re-signed instead of traded last year should bother you most.

 

[Friday]

I left for an entire hour haha really? Not even a leak of one NJ player? Silllllyyy

Well they all have NMC for one I'm pretty sure.

The cap hits are bigger too this year so hard to trade.

What's odd is that it got leaked that Meier is going to the Devils, but literally nothing else about it. You'd think we still would know that Meier was traded if there are no other details out.

You sit down and wait, tortured like the rest of us! I seriously could afford to do some things right now but am mentally paralyzed. Glad my wife went out for a bit to shop at Home Goods and Michael's so I can stew quietly.
