Onddeck Posted June 16, 2012 Share Posted June 16, 2012 if zach and suter are both unsigned come july, you're right, it'll be crazy and exciting Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Devil Dan 56 Posted June 16, 2012 Share Posted June 16, 2012 Zach and suter will be signed pretty quick. A lot of teams will be waiting to see where they go before making other decisions. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
njd3b1ink Posted June 16, 2012 Share Posted June 16, 2012 Regardless of whether or not we get zach i would like the devils to try to get penner. He wud be a great pickup for our third line Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DevilinLA Posted June 16, 2012 Share Posted June 16, 2012 Regardless of whether or not we get zach i would like the devils to try to get penner. He wud be a great pickup for our third line He's a lazy floater that had 2 seasons of crap play and showed up in the playoffs for a few games - you want to pay $4M+ for that?

snartly Posted June 16, 2012 Share Posted June 16, 2012 I would not mind taking Jarret Stoll. He has great faceoffability, in which we all know the Devils need, and as he showed in the finals, he is a very good PK man. That is if Suter signs somewhere else.

Mayday Posted June 16, 2012 Author Share Posted June 16, 2012 you guys are crazy. you expect to get parise and suter, then you need to address the who our goalie will be and fill in the RW holes. it wont happen. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bartholomew Hunt Posted June 16, 2012 Share Posted June 16, 2012 If im not mistaken i see harding on this list. Wouldnt mind having him split time with marty next year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Devil Dan 56 Posted June 16, 2012 Share Posted June 16, 2012 A Zach resigning and the addition of a guy like Harding would be a pretty successful free agency. But I wouldn't be shocked to see moose back for another year either. It seems whenever we think it's time for a young goalie Lou signs a veteran stopgap (weekes, Danis, moose, etc) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kovys Puck Posted June 16, 2012 Share Posted June 16, 2012 I wouldn't mind seeing Jiri or Doan on this roster as well... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ghdi Posted June 16, 2012 Share Posted June 16, 2012 One of Suter or Parise, if not both, will not make it to July 1st. Id not be surprised to see both stay put. The names Im most intrigued by that I could see us bringing in realistically are Stoll and PA Parenteau. I've been a fan of trading for Stoll in the past and I think he'd be a good fit here. I just can't see it happening. Parenteau is more logical. I don't see Poni coming back, so we will probably replace someone on the offensive side. If Sal isnt coming back, on the D side, I'd love to poach Carle from the Flyers, but he's going to get a raise from 3.4. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Devilsfan118 Posted June 16, 2012 Share Posted June 16, 2012 Zach and Suter, yeah that's a dream guys. I'm curious to see where Suter ends up, personally Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kovys Puck Posted June 16, 2012 Share Posted June 16, 2012 Parise, Stoll, Carle might not be out of reach. I agree gettin Suter will be nearly impossible with a resigning of Parise. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ghdi Posted June 16, 2012 Share Posted June 16, 2012 Suter would be impossible to get with or without Parise. He wants to stay in the western conference. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Re-sign the 4th line too. Then we have the goaltending situation left. We could get Marty to come back cheap for one more year to mentor Wedgewood and split 60/40. parise-zajac-zubrus kovalchuk-henrique-parenteau josefson-elias-clarkson carter-gionta-bernier boulton greene-fayne tallinder-larsson zidlicky-volchenkov marty wedgewood Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ghdi Posted June 16, 2012 Share Posted June 16, 2012 Wedgewood wont be in NJ next season. If anyone from the farm is up here it will be Frazee. He was with the team all through the Finals, not on roster, but I think hes going to get first crack. I also wouldnt be surprised to see Moose back.

Wedgewood definitely won't be up yet, but I also don't think they have much confidence in Frazee. I think it's gonna be moose or someone from outside the organization. Kinkaid isn't ready yet either.

I rather have Moose resigned then going after the other options (Harding, Johnson, Gustavsson...) I like Harding and all but as others have mentioned he is injury prone. Montoya would be a decent option if we could sign him on the cheap. However, I think the Isles will offer him a contract extension. Some tweeks to that previous lineup. Parise-Zajac-Zubrus Kovalchuk-Henrique-Parenteau Elias-Josefson-Clarkson Carter-Gionta-Bernier Boulton Greene-Fayne Tallinder-Larsson Zidlicky-Volchenkov Brodeur Montoya I salivate at the thought.
