Jas0nMacIsaac Posted April 3, 2013 Share Posted April 3, 2013 This a great depth trade..new jersey has plenty of offense when healthy. They are one of the beat defensive teams Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vic Rattlehead18 Posted April 3, 2013 Share Posted April 3, 2013 Lou just said STFU to everyone who was whining about another year with no moves. Regardless of how small. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Elias26 Posted April 3, 2013 Share Posted April 3, 2013 How long will it take for him to get a crack at our first line? lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CarpathianForest Posted April 3, 2013 Share Posted April 3, 2013 What's the over/under on him getting injured this season? Break out the prune juice and advanced directive forms! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ThreeCups Posted April 3, 2013 Share Posted April 3, 2013 Lou really failed us this deadline... Here is to hoping we can sneak in the playoffs... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CarpathianForest Posted April 3, 2013 Share Posted April 3, 2013 Lou could have gotten a better player for a 7th round pick. IMO Redden and Jokinen are both more valuable and they went for a 7th rounder. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
slasher72 Posted April 3, 2013 Share Posted April 3, 2013 Since Lou has a hard-on for aging ex-Devils, why not get Mogilny out of retirement? It worked out pretty well the last time he tried it, lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, what we need now is Wade Redden. We don't have enough of that. Jokinen was given away for free because he has money due him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jagknife Posted April 3, 2013 Author Share Posted April 3, 2013 Yeah, what we need now is Wade Redden. We don't have enough of that.

grcenter47 Posted April 3, 2013 Share Posted April 3, 2013 I like him. Didnt he have a hat trick earlier this year? I am more excited than this guy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
'7' Posted April 3, 2013 Share Posted April 3, 2013 I like him. Didnt he have a hat trick earlier this year? I am more excited than this guy yes, and he has 1 goal in the 29 games that have since followed In short...he may be finished Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NJDevs4978 Posted April 3, 2013 Share Posted April 3, 2013 I like Stevie but boy this reminds me so much of the second Richer trade, where we gave up a seventh for another washed-up ex-Devil. Not that a seventh really matters, but you get what you pay for most of the time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Colorado Rockies 1976 Posted April 3, 2013 Share Posted April 3, 2013 Lou really failed us this deadline... Here is to hoping we can sneak in the playoffs... Who did you want, and for what? I just don't think there was much Lou really should've or could've done here. I would've been fine with nothing, but this move won't make much difference either way.

maxpower Posted April 3, 2013 Share Posted April 3, 2013 Well, he has to pass a physical so don't get too excited just yet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would've been fine with nothing, but this move won't make much difference either way. Anything that made me believe you were trying to help us out for another push before Marty hangs em up... We may only have a couple more dances with #30 before he is gone forever...we should be trying to win every season, PERIOD. Does that mean I want huge names every go around?!? Of course not, but something more impactful than Sullivan.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I didn't say get Redden, I would have liked to get Jokinen, but I think they are two examples of how much a 7th can return. When I read we got Steve Sullivan I seriously thought he retired. Guy has virtually disappeared in the past few seasons. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NJDevs4978 Posted April 3, 2013 Share Posted April 3, 2013 Well, he has to pass a physical so don't get too excited just yet. Unless he was in a wheelchair last night during his nine minutes of icetime he'll pass a physical lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Triumph Posted April 3, 2013 Share Posted April 3, 2013 Brodeur (and goaltending in general) is the biggest thing keeping this team from winning. The idea that the Devils should sell out their future so Marty and his .905 SV% can get one last shot at the Cup is ridiculous. We still haven't seen the final cost for Pominville but it looks awfully expensive. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Devils731 Posted April 3, 2013 Share Posted April 3, 2013 Jokinen passed through waivers recebtly so the whole league of GMs, right or wrong, question his value. Redden is similar. I don't see any reason to think a 7th should return more than a depth move or taking on a poor salary to play ratio based on those values.

CarpathianForest Posted April 3, 2013 Share Posted April 3, 2013 Are we officially the oldest team in the league now? We have like 1 first/second line, 2 third lines and one 4th line. Yay! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Of course not, but something more impactful than Sullivan.... Sorry but we really shouldn't piss the future down the toilet just so Marty can add another cup to his resume. Marty is a shoe-in for the Hall so no worries about that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
