I'm hoping that one of our glutton of D is going back the other way and that we're getting draft picks.

This makes little sense to get a guy with 1 goal on the season.

D'Agostini has one good season in his career ('10-11, 21g+25a, only season with over 55 games played) and is a -16 career player. I hope very little is going back to STL.

If true, I like it. But I base this solely off the fact that I'm good with him in NHL 13. Depends on what went the other way first.

I'm paranoid it's going to be Fayne. We're all hoping it's Tallinder. Will probably wind up being Tedenby and/or Urbom.

But do we really that with Zubrus coming back to the line up to bump everyone around?

I think this might be an AHL deal - since that was originally the plan for Lokti...
Look at our bottom6. Our 4th line is playing (great lol) 3rd line minutes. With or without Zubrus, we could use some depth.

Typical Lou move and we called it. I don`t think there`s a reason to complain about this, unless he didn`t get him for cheap. We`ll see I guess.

I`ve always liked his play and I kind of miss Italian names in the NHL so I definitely won`t complain. :laugh:

Definitely. It's all about price right now to decide whether this was a good deal or not.

Now Trade for Jagr and im very happy with our lineup . If not, then just slot D'Ags where Clarkie is and move Clarkie up.

D'Ags as a solid depth guy . Very good to bring in if injuries occur.

So you've already scratched D'Agostini from our lineup?

I can't remember Lou ever being as active in the trade market as he has been the last two or so years. Even though they're bargain bin deals, he's made a lot of them.

That shows how much confidence he has in DeBoer's system I guess, that he thinks we're only a few small pieces away.

Wait I'm confused, why are we complaining about Larsson in the trade speculation thread? I'm not trying to play forum police, I'm curious how that topic came up.

@NJDAdvocate: #NJDevils Uncle Lou getting inquiries on Clarkson.

Roger mussa only tweets when he knows things

Please Lou. In a heartbeat (as long as it's in a package for a Top 6 forward). I

I appreciate Clarkson as a player. Love what he brings as far as his grit and his intangibles. I've enjoyed watching him grow as a Devil. However, he's a poor skater and a poor shooter. And I think if the Devils pay him anything more than $5 million (even that's a stretch) they are signing up for long term pain.

If any player can drastically regress during their prime that player is Clarky. You sign him to score 30 goals and he suddenly scores 10. That's the kind of guy I think Clarky is.

I can't tell if you're kidding or not.

I am being serious He tweeted yesterday or the day before that devils were making a move and no other insider said anything. And clarkson is trade able If zubrus comes back healthy and the new guy fits the system then moving clarkson for a good pick and player is very possible depending on the teams value of clarkson

I don't see it on his twitter. He put up 2 posts talking trade to promote his blog about the Devils and the trade deadline, he doesn't even seem to be claiming to have called the Devils were making a trade instead he says

http://www.hockeybuzz.com/blog.php?post_id=50174&blogger_id=106#.UUy_FofSbng

As a follow up to my prior blog suggesting the Devils will make a deal, I am getting flooded with emails about the Devils' trade today. (this is not the deal I was hoping for) So here are my initial thoughts...

My guess is he's just passing on the national guys saying Lou has been getting talking to about Clarkson.

Any GM should be fired if they don't inquire about Clarkson. He's an average-ish forward who's struggling on an average team with an expiring contract.

However, Lou's not gonna move him and we all know it, not unless it's for some sort of ridiculous overpayment, and even then I bet you Clarkson signs with New Jersey in the offseason. He's a Devil. He's Marty's best friend and Lou treats him like family and I doubt we ever see him in another jersey.

"Inquiries" = "Ay yo Lou, what's the deal with Clarkson? Oh, he's not available? Word." *click*

Basically, I don't see that as news at all. If the guy had tweeted the Devils were sending out feelers about Clarkson's value that'd be something else.
