Dubous or what? Not really related.At least Fitz isn’t Rob Blake.

Nobody said that lolWe were told Holtz was worth a 1st????
Talked how?Schmid talked himself out of NJ, but Holtz is about to make Fitz look foolish
So far the Shara and Zetterlund jettisons produced 54 goals in one season.Fitz shot himself in the foot when it came to Holtz. When you're a GM you shouldn't make it publicly known you hate the player. That should be kept behind closed doors. Ultimately I see Holtz having a breakout season and Fitz is going to look real stupid about it.
Maybe he sounded like a NevadanNobody said that lol

Your dreams were your ticket outWelcome back, welcome back, welcome back..

as a vegas fan i kind of hate this deal. cotter was a really key part of their bottom 6 and he's signed cheap for two more seasons. holtz is gonna have to beat out stone, hertl/karlsson, barbashev, dorofeyev and maybe marchessault and even potentially brisson for a spot in the top six and i just don't think he's that good? i guess he's reasonable insurance if stone can't play and marchessault walks
schmid is whatever. i guess he's still reasonably young for a goalie
I can only assume that Fitz thinks the rest of his game won't ever be good enough for teams to give him the minutes necessary to get the TOI to reach 30 goals.I like Cotter as a 4th liner with bite, but jeez. You could be giving up a 30 goal scorer here. That seems pretty dumb.
He is one dimensional at this point. He's also 22. I think he can be a Toffoli. Toffoli is average defensively and I don't think Holtz will be, but Holtz can skate at an average level while Toffoli skates like a beer leaguer. I just think you guys are giving up some upside here for a 4th liner. It's the right type of 4th liner, but still a 4th liner.I can only assume that Fitz thinks the rest of his game won't ever be good enough for teams to give him the minutes necessary to get the TOI to reach 30 goals.
If he had traded him for Pospisil, I'd have been okay with what and I think this is very similar in nature I guess.
Now we're gonna get all three Vegas fans on the HF Board promoting bad trades centering around him.Congrats to all the devils fans who included holtz in every trade offer for 5 years
Holtz is a megabust.
He's Alex Nylander Jr
Devils fans blamed Ruff for ruining him, but he looked the same under Green & Keefe obviously wanted nothing to do with him. Looks like the report that Flames preferred Bahl over Holtz was right too.
NHL GMs valued him far differently than some Devils fans did.
Hey! There is at least six of us.Now we're gonna get all three Vegas fans on the HF Board promoting bad trades centering around him.
I'm no fan of Holtz but the Devils already have Bratt, Meier, and Mercer at RW, and that's a big problem already (they tried to force Meier to play LW last year to no success). Holtz is absolutely useless if you don't use him as a PP specialist - kind of like Hoffman - and there's no need or room for that on the Devils.He is one dimensional at this point. He's also 22. I think he can be a Toffoli. Toffoli is average defensively and I don't think Holtz will be, but Holtz can skate at an average level while Toffoli skates like a beer leaguer. I just think you guys are giving up some upside here for a 4th liner. It's the right type of 4th liner, but still a 4th liner.
I'm convinced it's just three with burner accounts.Hey! There is at least six of us.
I don’t remember exactly what was said but his agent was whining on his behalf about him going to the AHL last year because he deserved to be in the NHLNobody said that lol

1. I never said he played under Keefe. I said he wanted nothing to do with him.1. Holtz never played under Keefe
2. Green just continued Lindys on ice policies and was an extension of Lindy despite being fired. Nothing was changed wherein Holtz would have gotten a meaningful opportunity
