1. Siegenthaller is Great at defense like Hughes is great at offence, Obviously Hughes type players are valued more then shutdown defenders.
2. Bahl is not a project
3. No duh, Quinn would/has a bigger impact then Mercer. Thats why the trade has MULTIPLE players in it.
Just say that you want to keep Quinn, You don't have to disparage the players offered. Van has both OEL and Quinn right now, its redundant and OEL would be impossible to trade. Vancouver's Defence would instantly become more well rounded instead of a defensive sieve it currently is and don't forget the 2023 1st and Mercer.
I agree that NJ isn't a fit on the Devils for the simple fact the cost to aquire him and the cost to get him would gut your roster. Quinn improves your team instantly, the amount of mis information on HF about Quinn is nuts. In 5 games he's averaging 27 mins is somehow +1 with 5 points while not 100% carrying Schenn or Poolman facing teams best forwards.
I get it he's a small dude who doesn't defend in the typical way but he's learned to use his stick, speed and iq and he's 22 years old. There is no scenario where he gets traded.
Bit if he did the package would be insane for the simple fact guys like him are rare and people saying Nemec will be better based on absolutely nothing need to have their head examined.
The kid isn't even near his prime and already could very easily be a ppg ice tilter who kills penalties above average and can play 27 minutes without breaking a sweat.
Our stupid management should be finding him a decent RHD, I mean Christ some of these takes here show a complete lack of actually watching him play.
Jack is a stud and Quinn is value wise the equivalent on D and your saying you wouldn't move the guys you mentioned but I'm sorry man bit there isn't one D in your organization that has done anything close to what Quinn has done and everyone assuming Luke or Nemac deserves to be held in the same esteem are Homer's. Until they break multiple rookie records in the regular season and playoffs they have nowhere near the value of Quinn locked up for 5 years at 7.2 cap hit.
Again I will point out at 21 he was close to a ppg +10 killed penalties while playing with Luke Schenn.
Any nuck fan that would trade him are idiots, we've waited 50+ years for a stud like him and a shitty 7 game stretch where the team is ravaged with injuries and literally the most odd 5 game road trip where every bad bounce went against us is no reason to sell off the cornerstones who are still kids.
