I grew up in Toms River... always called it pork roll.

They weren’t allowed to call it ham anymore because it didn’t meet the definition of ham from the Pure Food and Drug act of 1906. Hence, Taylor’s Pork Roll

People change, especially when your last cup was nearly twenty years ago.

I mean worst case... it's a lockerroom move and a needed signing cap wise that gives us a pick at the deadline. If we were strapped for cash cap-wise or if it had term, I'd be bummed... but a season? Cool. /JohnOliver

We have one spot open currently if Hasan doesn’t return. We will take a headcount sometime in late August / early September as we start the 2019-20 season.

Super excited... I found out while scoping round 2 order and was like wtf did our pick go... Nashville? Holy sh!t.. Subban? What else could we have given? Check trades, holy sh!t! woot LGD

It's a tough mix between main line and hidden gems but I look forward to next season! I'll have a more formal post later this summer, but Hasan has officially resigned and I have taken over the league. I plan on no major changes for this upcoming season to ensure a smooth and orderly transition. Perhaps the only significant change will be trade approvals. The approval process went from rubber stamp to confusing pretty quickly as our keeper slots have matured... but all of this will be open and transparent.

You need to hang out in Charleston.

Yes!!! I can’t wait to see Hughes as a Devil! This will be a great off season.

It’s no threepeat.... jk Congrats! are in order to Zamboni Warrior.for a great season. I look forward to next season already for both the Devils and The SD!

Right; and that was my point. Marchand is a solid keeper who will produce well.... but I wasn't in the market for him, because I wouldn't keep him over Aho (22), Eichel (22) or Draisaitl (23) for Marchand (31) (ages at the start of next season). I imagine other teams are in that camp as well... where they have young talent that they value over high scoring veterans... I swapped my star goalie in Bobrovsky for Draisaitl and lost this year on goaltending. Aho was drafted his rookie season and kept since by me. And I paid an arm and a leg to pry Eichel away (1st rounder, Ovi, Toews) You certainly got the better deal with Marchand in the short term... but I'm hoping Eichel continues to develop and is a top 10 talent by like 2022.

I mean yea... we all knew Marchand was on the market; and if that was the best offer... that was the best offer. I think keeper prices will come down as we lock into our keepers and don't have spare slots. Like I wasn't going to trade for Marchand who is now on the wrong side of 30... I was interested in swapping Aho for Laine+; but Laine was ultimately kept.

I think if I didn't trade for Eichel, I'd be top 3 currently... Hopefully I can navigate my first round hole next season (my keepers and two 2nd rounders helps).
