Neb00rs Posted March 5, 2014 Share Posted March 5, 2014 It's Lou's fault that he thinks Ryder, close & brunner are replacements for Kovi & zack! Not even close ! More like: he thinks that Ryder, Clowe, and Brunner are the best he can do to replace those guys at the moment. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Devil Dan 56 Posted March 5, 2014 Share Posted March 5, 2014 That's disappointing, I've gotta be honest. It is, but hopefully it's a healthy dose of reality for Marty Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheRedStorm Posted March 5, 2014 Share Posted March 5, 2014 Since it's quiet....does anyone else have a dislike for Katie Strang? She's advertised as covering the Rangers, Islanders and Devils....but she is so one sided towards the Rangers it's not even close. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Triumph Posted March 5, 2014 Share Posted March 5, 2014 Lawton's unreliable, but find me a team where Brodeur's a fit. There isn't one. Especially if his trade list includes all sorts of hilarious teams like LA and Pittsburgh. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mikepeluso8 Posted March 5, 2014 Share Posted March 5, 2014 Rich Chere @Ledger_NJDevils 19s Lou Lamoriello won't reveal anything until deadline is past, but indications mounting that Devils will keep Martin Brodeur. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oconnellrules Posted March 5, 2014 Share Posted March 5, 2014 Lou tried, nobody wanted him. The matter is closed i wouldn't say that. couldn't give him away for nothing so it had to be mutually beneficial Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SterioDesign Posted March 5, 2014 Share Posted March 5, 2014 (edited) we got Ruutu? well damn Edited March 5, 2014 by SterioDesign Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Triumph Posted March 5, 2014 Share Posted March 5, 2014 Dreger reporting Ruutu to NJ - wonder what's going the other way - Volchenkov? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DJ Eco Posted March 5, 2014 Share Posted March 5, 2014 Good move by Lou. Cut your losses, don't waste anymore of this deadline day discussing Brodeur (no return was probably anything near worth it), address our offense. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Devils731 Posted March 5, 2014 Share Posted March 5, 2014 i wouldn't say that. couldn't give him away for nothing so it had to be mutually beneficial I think I can make a case that Marty's current value is effectively nothing, so you could give him away for that.

Neb00rs Posted March 5, 2014 Share Posted March 5, 2014 He's not retiring unless he gets no offers. And the Devils will still think they need a .900 backup goalie so round and round we go. I don't see Marty retiring even if he gets no offers. I don't know if I could see him in an SKA St. Petersburg jersey (or any other league) but I think he would wait for a deal next year (a dilemma which wouldn't occur because if needed Lou will sign him as a backup).

mikepeluso8 Posted March 5, 2014 Share Posted March 5, 2014 I like this trade. 4 years ago. Agreed. 5 goals this year? WOW. Gionta has one less goal...ho hum. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nmigliore Posted March 5, 2014 Share Posted March 5, 2014 Serious question regarding Marty/idea of trading him: who exactly would WANT an old .900 SV% goalie who is crying for playing time? I can't really fault Lou for not moving him if a market doesn't exist for him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlueSkirt Posted March 5, 2014 Share Posted March 5, 2014 #30 won't retire....not before Game 82, not before July 1, not before Camp opens, not before Opening Night, not before Xmas..... only when 2015 starts, without receiving any offers will he then retire, or possibly go to KHL Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Onddeck Posted March 5, 2014 Share Posted March 5, 2014 Hm 5 goals in 57 games.. sounds like the exact player we already have like 3 of Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DJ Eco Posted March 5, 2014 Share Posted March 5, 2014 Looks like a salary dump that we hopefully got for peanuts. Don't mind this trade, I like it if this is 1 of 2 or 3 trades Lou's planning to make.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Devil Dan 56 Posted March 5, 2014 Share Posted March 5, 2014 Aaron Ward @aaronward_nhl 39s Carolina Hurricanes trade Ruutu to the New Jersey Devils for Loktionov. #Tradecentre #TSN Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheRedStorm Posted March 5, 2014 Share Posted March 5, 2014 Agreed. 5 goals this year? WOW. Gionta has one less goal...ho hum. The only way i'll even remotely like this is if Salvador or Volchenkov went back to Carolina. To take on a player that is 31 and 3 more years on his deal at 4.7 mil who has 9 goals in the last 71 games is a terrible trade. I hate this deal, it is fvcking garbage.

Devilsfan118 Posted March 5, 2014 Share Posted March 5, 2014 (edited) WHAT? WHY WOULD YOU TRADE LOKTI?! fvck me man. Huge contract, no point production.. Edited March 5, 2014 by Devilsfan118 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
