ThreeCups Posted March 5, 2014 Share Posted March 5, 2014 You know what, I've got a feeling the Devils are in on Vanek. I have NO sources, I haven't heard this anywhere. I just have a feeling Lou's a sleeper on this guy. Keep dreaming!! What do we have to offer for him?!? I have also read that him signing in Minny this summer is pretty much a done deal....

Sneax Posted March 5, 2014 Share Posted March 5, 2014 Aside from Vanek and Moulson, who else needs to be traded today essentially? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Colorado Rockies 1976 Posted March 5, 2014 Share Posted March 5, 2014 Starting to get the feeling the Devils aren't doing anything, except for something extremely minor. I'm not one to kill Marty, but hopefully the fact that no other team seems to think he can help them will change his perspective on how much playing time he should be getting.

ThreeCups Posted March 5, 2014 Share Posted March 5, 2014 I feel that way about moulson. It's been really quiet on the moulson camp... Keep dreaming 2.0. We might have a decent shot to resign him if we managed to get him though.... Brodeur was never going to go to Montreal - why does Montreal want that mess? They have a good goalie, so let's acquire the 2nd best Quebecois goalie of all time who can't stop talking about how much playing time he needs. And now he can lobby for playing time to the media in French!! Starting to get the feeling the Devils aren't doing anything, except for something extremely minor. I'm not one to kill Marty, but hopefully the fact that no other team seems to think he can help them will change his perspective on how much playing time he should be getting. Sadly, I think this will just fuel his desire to "prove he can still play" to the world even more.... There is no good ending to this saga folks...

I don't mean this to come across in an especially mean way, but I think Marty is so far into his own head that nothing short of forced retirement this summer will get that point though to him.

TheRedStorm Posted March 5, 2014 Share Posted March 5, 2014 . There is no good ending to this saga folks... There was never going to be one. You've got an big ego involved here and a coach and GM who can't/won't manage it properly. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is everyone in agreeance that retirement is 100% off of the table for Marty after this year? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Onddeck Posted March 5, 2014 Share Posted March 5, 2014 (edited) One more scorer off the table in gaborik. At least he's out of the division now, hopefully the return isn't that great Edited March 5, 2014 by Onddeck Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mitico12 Posted March 5, 2014 Share Posted March 5, 2014 If Marty is signed to an extension, Schneider will get traded. Guaranteed. Our version of "SC excitement" will be Marty's farewell tour next year... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Triumph Posted March 5, 2014 Share Posted March 5, 2014 Is everyone in agreeance that retirement is 100% off of the table for Marty after this year? He's not retiring unless he gets no offers. And the Devils will still think they need a .900 backup goalie so round and round we go. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dmann422 Posted March 5, 2014 Share Posted March 5, 2014 Interesting that both vanek and moulson haven't gone yet... Cutting it close here, I'm not sure if the return for either will be that impressive. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mitico12 Posted March 5, 2014 Share Posted March 5, 2014 With the Leafs needing a center, would you consider a trade of Henrique / Larsson for Phil Kessel? I know, fantasy world, but that would be super... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mikepeluso8 Posted March 5, 2014 Share Posted March 5, 2014 (edited) 1. Brodeur isn't going anywhere...no surprise that Louie baby hung him out there as "trade bait" to say, "hey pal, ya see this? You aren't worth anything...anywhere...so sit down...shut up....and accept your role" 2. No offensive help on the way. Very unlikely to happen. Not a Lou thing to do and no one left who would be a "Lou trade" kind of guy. Time to accept what we have and make chicken salad out of chicken sh!t and hope we can sneak into the playoffs by some miracle.

There's no way he or anyone else on the Devils can pitch that in a way that makes it sound like a good move. Can't say not getting Gaborik bothers me, though there's a part of me that would've been intrigued has Lou made a move to get him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dmann422 Posted March 5, 2014 Share Posted March 5, 2014 Surprised that no quality d have been moved yet today. With Phillips re-signing there might be some demand for a defenseman. I hope Lou at least dangles some of ours out there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
