msweet Posted November 17, 2011 Share Posted November 17, 2011 The Los Angeles Kings and New Jersey Devils are believed to have engaged in recent trade discussions, prompting each team to dispatch its scouting staff to watch the other club.It has been widely reported that the Devils have an interest in Kings goalie Jonathan Bernier, however sources close to the Kings told TFP the team is not interested in moving him, at this point, barring a substantial offer. http://www.thefourthperiod.com/news/lak111116.html Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

elias2600 Posted November 17, 2011 Share Posted November 17, 2011 I doubt anything substantial comes out of this. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Triumph Posted November 17, 2011 Share Posted November 17, 2011 I read this yesterday, and it may as well have read 'Kings, Devils may make trade, or may not do so.' McGuire did mention that the Kings people were at last night's game, so at least that part of it is true. As for Kings I'd be interested in, I wouldn't mind Justin Williams, but I can't really see a fit in a deal here. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NJDevs4978 Posted November 17, 2011 Share Posted November 17, 2011 TFP is worse than Єklund (2.3% accurate). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Devils731 Posted November 17, 2011 Share Posted November 17, 2011 This same basic rumor has been going on since the offseason, right? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Legion15 Posted November 17, 2011 Share Posted November 17, 2011 if it is at all true they're looking for Bernier, then this is gonna dig up the "Marty will be traded" BS. And why would Lou (in his right mind) think of letting go of Moose? He's been awesome for us. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
adam85491 Posted November 17, 2011 Share Posted November 17, 2011 We don't need a goalie this year, or maybe next. We need a defenseman. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DaneykoIsGod Posted November 17, 2011 Share Posted November 17, 2011 Since Tedenby was a scratch for the game Kings' scouts flew out for, should we assume he isn't on the block? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Quinn01 Posted November 17, 2011 Share Posted November 17, 2011 This, if it goes through, is going to cost us an arm and a leg I feel. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chuck the Duck Posted November 17, 2011 Share Posted November 17, 2011 I don't see NJ making any moves at this time. The team is playing relatively well all things considered, and Zajac is likely to be back within the next month. However, if we can't re-sign Parise by the trade deadline, then I could see us making a deal with LA for Bernier, Voyunov, or both coming back our way in exchange for the captain.

Legion15 Posted November 17, 2011 Share Posted November 17, 2011 Holding on to Zach though HAS to be Lou's #1 priority, any team would LOVE him (and we can't allow the Rangers or Flyers to get their paws on him!) 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Last night in the pregame one idiot said that he sees Zach going to Pittsburgh....could you imagine? I would just stop watching the NHL all together at that point. Parise, Crosby and Malkin. fvck that noise. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah the talking heads on VS during the pregame almost unanimously proclaimed Parise was gone at the end of the season. It's like they love taunting Devils fans. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marshall Posted November 17, 2011 Share Posted November 17, 2011 Єklund (2.3% accurate): Devils and Kings?The teams have been talking, but I get the impression this deal is a deal that is down the line and contingent on how each team does...according to one source, "The Kings have huge interest in Parise, but nothing will happen until the deadline approaches and the asking price would be a goalie and a top 6 forward." :lol: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheMazz Posted November 17, 2011 Share Posted November 17, 2011 (edited) Don't wanna say I toldcha so but that Johnson/Bernier deal looks more realistic every day. Edited November 17, 2011 by TheMazz Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DevsMan84 Posted November 17, 2011 Share Posted November 17, 2011 We need help in a lot of positions, but G is prob 2nd to least most pressing as we have Kinkaid and co. working their way up who look pretty good. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Triumph Posted November 17, 2011 Share Posted November 17, 2011 it would make no sense to name parise captain and then trade him. right now it looks like the devils will be within striking distance of the playoffs, so i think a parise trade is very unlikely.

Plenty of teams will be throwing money at him, Lou has to make him a Godfather-style deal to keep his thoughts here 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Plenty of teams will be throwing money at him, Lou has to make him a Godfather-style deal to keep his thoughts here If hes going to go at the end of the season then we should get something in return for him rather then letting him just walk. We all know that we arent going to be the highest bidder for Zach, itll come down to whether or not the money will talk or if he really is happy here and pulls an Elias.

We all know that we arent going to be the highest bidder for Zach, itll come down to whether or not the money will talk or if he really is happy here and pulls an Elias. Atlanta, if they had been making the playoffs the year they traded Kovy, would probably have been better off losing Kovy to free agency than making the trade with the Devils. They have an ok prospect, an overpaid defenseman, and a guy who can't stick with any team he's on. A playoff team is better off with the extra time and playoff time with their star player and then taking the full cap relief, if they don't re-sign him.

NHLeBeau44 Posted November 17, 2011 Share Posted November 17, 2011 Since Tedenby was a scratch for the game Kings' scouts flew out for, should we assume he isn't on the block? Unless he is on the block and they didn't want to have to pull him off the bench if he had been traded in the middle of the game and go down a man.
