What do you want to see this offseason?

Recommended Posts

1) Who do you want NJ to take with the first pick:

 

2) Pick one UFA for the Devils to sign and give them a (realistic) contract:

 

3) What trade would you like to see (again, make it realistic):

 

1. Barzal

 

2. Paul Martin 3/12:

 

3. Gelinas and a 2nd for Grigorenko

1)Pavel Zacha

2)Matt Halischuk 1 year at league minimum.

3)Gelinas to Columbus for Rychel and a 2nd 2015 (34th overall) then potentially use a couple of our 2nds to move back up into the 1st round.

 

Number 3 seems pretty unrealistic to me.  Rychel is more valuable than Gelinas even to a team that wants defense and might not have room for Rychel in the lineup when everyone is healthy.  If anything, it's our second rounder that would be going to Columbus in that deal.

1) Who do you want NJ to take with the first pick: - Assuming Strome and Marner are gone, either Barzal or Zacha

 

2) Pick one UFA for the Devils to sign and give them a (realistic) contract: - Martin - 4Y/15M (not exactly thrilled with the contract but I think that's what it might take)

 

3) What trade would you like to see (again, make it realistic): - Eh not sure.

1. Gonna echo DM84, Marner if he's available, Barzal if not.

2. Carl Soderberg, 3/6M I expect he'll wind up doing much better than this, though.

3. Merrill & 3rd for Grigorenko, I just don't see Gelinas having enough value to get Grigorenko.

1) Trade back with CLB:  6 for 8 and Rychel and draft what's left of Barzal/Zacha/Rantanen.

 

2) Soderberg - I think he wants 6 years but I have no idea how much per year he could be expecting.  I would just be kicking tires about it.  Is 27 mil too low ball?

 

3) Because I think Colorado is going to trade ROR at the trade deadline and we could just sign him next year, I would take a chance on Semin - maybe Zubs and Burlon for him and a pick.  We'd have 3 years of a potential marquee guy.  If it backfires, we can buy him out with a cap hit of 2.333 mil for 4 or 2 years depending on the year we do it.  Then it's basically getting a better pick for a buried prospect. 

 

As a sidenote, for all of you that say how much they hated Devil retreads, I'm seeing a lot of Martin/Oduya/Halischuk.

1.) Marner, I hope he falls.

2.) Frolik, 5 years, 4.75M per

3.) Gelinas plus a 2nd for Rychel.

 

My list would be the same except that I would be happy with any one of Marner, Strome, Hanifin or Barzal that falls to 6.  I wouldn't lose sleep If the first three are gone and we take Provorov over Barzal either.  I think he's going to be a good one.

I'm now thinking Gelinas and a 2nd is too rich for Rychel. But damnit we do need some young forward talent.

I have never said I hate ex devils coming back.

I am hoping that the fact Gelinas is proven NHL talent and the Fact that Rychel has only had limited NHL showings and is coming off a concussion will swing it in our favour.

1) Assuming Marner and Hanifin are gone...Barzal.

 

2)  Beleskey - 4 years/4M per

 

3) Trade 6 for 8 get barzal and 1 of columbus 2nd rd picks. Maybe sweeten the pot with gelinas and get Rychel as well. 

   

NJ: 2015 Rd (6), Gelinas, 2016 4th Rd - CBJ: 2015 1st Rd (8), Rychel, 2015 2nd Rd (58).

1. Marner/ Strome

2. Frolik (4.5mill/3 years)

3. Larsson, 2nd round pick to COL for ROR and 10th overall (shot in the dark)

OR

Gelinas + 2nd to COL for ROR

I wonder if Hanifin is available at 6, if Colorado would trade ROR and ten overall?

O'Reilly is of no interest to me unless he's coming with a long term contract extension (and he isn't).

Agreed, I believe it was Elliote Friedman in his 30 Thoughts column said that teams who are talking to Colorado about ROR are going to want to be able to talk to him/his agent about an extension before pulling the trigger. I can't see him doing that for anybody but a contender unless the money is astronomical

I mean to move down on four spots, I would take the risk of no contract extension. The Devils have plenty of cash to offer him also, so it wouldn't really concern me a ton.

1. BPA - Whether its Marner or Zacha or Provorov or Hanifin, just take the best player available at 6 regardless of position or trade down a bit (i.e. 8-10) and pick up another asset in the process.

 

2. Drew Stafford 3 yrs/12M. Don't break the bank and don't go long on any UFA. I'd go to 5 years with Soderberg if necessary.

 

3. Trade for Draisaitl or Grigorenko without having to lose Larsson or Severson.
