Make a three way deal and land MA Fleury.

Do you wanna never have an awful goalie in the playoffs for 5 million? Me neither. Aside from the year they lost to DET in the finals, he's been average to ECHL level in the playoffs and nothing more. Unless they take Salvador back, no 

I noticed Jared didn't write this or the last Devils article for HF. I suppose he's moved on.

I'm a huge believer in Wedgewood but no way would I rank him #2. I'd move Matteau up because of what he's already shown and how likely he is to be able to contribute for NJ in coming years even if his potential is 2nd/3rd line. Probably move Clermont in 19/20 territory.

They had a job listing for a Devils prospect writer on there so Jared leaving's a pretty safe bet 

Anyone who thinks Elias should be captain must not have been paying attention in 06-07

not if clarkson is gonna ask for a lot of money.  Zubs will probably be more worth resigning.

 

i started noticing so clearly that Clarkson started trying to shoot the puck no matter where he was on the ice.  it was sooo annoying, he would shoot half assed shots at the net, it was clear he was forcing it.  i feel like Clarkson started to panic when he wasn't on a good scoring pace, I can see this just be a trend downward and could be a disaster if we overpaid for him

Zubrus is getting up there though, and w/ the fall off of Everest for Poni, I'd be afraid of going too long on him, but I doubt they have anyone to replace him. Clarkson just seems like an expensive luxury, a guy who can't really play on the top 6 as he seems to just drag down Elias on his line and I would die if he's next to Kovalchuk and Loktionov. I think, especially with an internal cap, you can more wisely spend the money somewhere else than on him, if Lou was so inclined. Though if they sign him, as long as it's not something asinine like $6 million, I'll deal. 

can we have like a weekly podcast where Triumph and Sterio debate advanced stats? It ends every week when one tries to murder the other/gets arrested
