Sees proposals without Siegenthaler + L. Hughes coming back, and folks railing on Quinn's defensive ability given his skating
[Insert Grandpa Simpson Walking in and Out GIF].
You're not seeing those proposals because NJ doesn't need Quinn so why are we going to dismantle our roster for him? Is Quinn a great player worth a massive haul? Yes he is without question but we become a worse team by trading away multiple players for him. Also if NJ ever did entertain a Hughes trade, in no way would Luke be on the table because the only purpose of the trade would be to unite the 3 brothers. Even if it was Siegs & Nemec I wouldn't do it because once again it doesn't make us a better team. By trading away both those players we then have a giant hole on D to fill. Quinn is worth a huge haul but you just aren't going to get that from NJ especially since we can just sit back & wait for him to come to us naturally.

Wasn't actually expecting the Devils to tear apart their roster, but just wanted to raise an unattainable example of a return since franchise players are rarely available without a king's ransom. Sure hope Vancouver's good by the time 2026-27 rolls around and he needs a new contract, or we'll have a gaping hole in our blueline.

Vancouver isn't trading Hughes for anything except a massive overpayment and even then, they still would not trade him. Hughes is a big part of that Vancouver offense imo

He was saying what what you're now saying. Did you read what you commented on? Or was it just f*** YOU ALL -reaction?
