Confirmed Signing with Link: [NJD] F Timo Meier signs extension with the Devils (8 years, $8.8M AAV)

[Lou is God]

How does it feel have rangers fans living rent free in your head?

You guys can pom pom all your signings in the Devils forum without worrying about other teams opinions if you don't like them in the general forum, where all are welcome to discuss things.

Oh the irony!

 

[The Crypto Guy]

Oh the irony!

I'm not the one who gets all defensive when someone puts down the rangers on a GENERAL sub and starts yelling that everyone is getting triggered lmao

 

[TGWL]

Hughes, Meier, Hischier, Bratt

A top 4 that will be reckoned with for many years. I would be disappointed if we didn’t win at least 2 cups in the next 8 years

Most teams, mine included, would settle for 1 without the disappointment.

 

[TBF1972]

This is a very black and white way of looking at how he produces and not at all indicative of anything other than your ability to look at stat sheets.

fully agree

i hope the devils signed him to win more playoff rounds. if he scores 60, 70, 80 or even 90 points doesn't really matter

I don't know anyone who puts down the Rangers the way you put down the Devils, I find your posts quite comical, if you trigger anything it's laughter!

 

[fasterthanlight]

people sometimes forget about a rising cap due to covid's unusual impact the past few years. this is a fine deal and will age fine.

 

[ZachaFlockaFlame]

Devils looking damn good, get a goalie and your laughing

Logan Thompson/Connor Hellebuyck at 50%

I'm not the one who gets all defensive when someone puts down the rangers on a GENERAL sub and starts yelling that everyone is getting triggered lmao

I literally got bitched at the other day by a group of Rags fans for saying Branden Schneider wasn't worth the 11th overall pick, stop acting like you're some sort of martyr. You're clearly made that comment to get under the skin of Devils fans as opposed to having any serious conversation.

 

[Kranix]

How does Timo fit into their speed profile

 

[KovalchukFistPump]

Enough with the Devils vs Rangers stuff. Nobody cares. Let people talk about the signing itself.

 

[Forge]

How does Timo fit into their speed profile

Better than toffoli would lol

I don't think it's major issue. Just depends on how lines are structured

 

[njdevil26]

So this is the lineup we are looking at right now:

Meier-Hughes-Mercer
Bratt-Hischier-Toffoli
Palat-Haula-Clarke/Holtz
Foote-McLeod-Bastian/Lazar

Bahl-Hamilton
Hughes-Marino
Siegenthaler-Nemec

Vanecek
Schmid


I wonder what the Devils would have to add to send Vanecek to Winnipeg for Hellebuyck.

 

[TheUnseenHand]

How does Timo fit into their speed profile

He kept up actually better than I expected. Remains to be seen if we can say the same for Toffoli.

 

[vtdevils2k]

Idk why you guys respond/fall to the bait of Crypto who does this all the time. Ignore his "haha's" to every devils post.

Happy to have Timo on board. Apparently Fitz has another move and isn't done.

 

[TBF1972]

I’m sorry the Devils hurt you in the playoffs.

Fun fact, you could ask 90% of team x’s fans and they wouldn’t know their backup goalie. Most fans are casual. But you sure showed Devils fans! Keep up the good work

you have to hand it to rangers fans. they are so much smarter then us because honestly i have no idea, who the devils back up goalie is.

between vv and schmid i don't think there will be clear defined roles going into the season.

So this is the lineup we are looking at right now:

Meier-Hughes-Mercer
Bratt-Hischier-Toffoli

Siegenthaler-Nemec

Vanecek

Have a feeling that may be coming next. Fitz isn't playing.

Agreed, him and Nico seems like the match. Jack and him are such volume shooters that I don't think it'll ever work tbh. Rookie year Jack, funny enough, would've been a great fit but Jack doesn't stop shooting the puck at any chance he gets now.

 

[RANDOMH3RO]

Fair and good deal for both sides. It would only age poorly if the cap continued to stay flat for 5+ years. Devils need players like timo, glad they were able to work it out.

 

[TBF1972]

It’s very transparent and beyond pathetic at this point Crypto Boy.

You’re in every Devil’s thread posting bad takes bc you’re weirdly obsessed with the more success team across the river.

i would say it's even transpirant

 

[Jack Be Quick]

Maybe but you have to start filling the building on a regular basis. having grown up in the area and having been to their first franchise game ever, I can say that devils fans (or ones who say they are) are extremely bandwagon. Teaching devils fans the icing and offsides rules over the years has been a struggle unto itself but I vividly remember every car having a devils bumper sticker when they were winning cups to none at all when they sucked. My favorite pastime was asking devils “fans” who the backup goalie was or your top D pairing only to be met by blank stares. You’ve also stolen some Rangers chants which is pretty lame.

Watch when we take your goal song next year homie.

 

[TBF1972]

Hughes, Meier, Hischier, Bratt

A top 4 that will be reckoned with for many years. I would be disappointed if we didn’t win at least 2 cups in the next 8 years

slow down

 

[Maurice of Orange]

The Devils went from an afterthought to dam near an all-star team lineup within a few years.

Fitzgerald has done a masterful job building New Jersey back into a cup contender. The Devils are going to be a tough opponent to play against.

That’s a nice deal for NJ and Meier as it could look better as the cap goes up.

 

[TimeZone]

I think it's pretty fair value, definitely good in the short term.

Team success and how Meier ages will decide how it plays in the longer term.

 

[malkshake]

This is amazing for the Devils. They got Hughes, Hischier, Bratt, and Meier for a combined 32 million. Hughes and Hischier as your top 2 centers alone for 15.5 m is already absurd enough.

 

[TBF1972]

I'm not the one who gets all defensive when someone puts down the rangers on a GENERAL sub and starts yelling that everyone is getting triggered lmao

no

you emulate the rangers playoff performances

no show

 

[My3Sons]

Why would Rangers fans live rent free in Devils fans's head?

You think Devils fans care about the Rangers? How many cups does the Devils have since the Ranger's last? The Rangers are the most irrelevant original 6 franchise hockeywise, they have 4 cups in 100 years lmao no one is jealous of their success
