xxchaznjxx Posted July 16, 2021 Share Posted July 16, 2021 (edited) My kid just told me that the Devils traded for Ryan Graves from COL for our 2nd and Maltsev. He was pretty happy about this. I haven't seen anything yet. Wow, 6'5 " 220lbs Edited July 16, 2021 by xxchaznjxx Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nicomo Posted July 16, 2021 Share Posted July 16, 2021 I know +/- doesn’t mean much in today’s game, but he led the league in 2020 at +40. He was also originally a Rags draft pick, so if he plays halfway decent for us that would be a nice bonus to stick it to them. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A former Rag draft pick named Graves succeeding with the Devils would no doubt piss off their muppet fans 🤣 Edited July 16, 2021 by MadDog2020 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crisis Posted July 16, 2021 Share Posted July 16, 2021 Quote And Fitzgerald, if he has his way, is just getting started. “We’re not done. I want to improve this team,” he said. “My ownership has given us the green light to do what we need to do, without sacrificing our future. But we want to start playing meaningful games. That’s the next phase of development for Jack (Hughes) and Nico (Hischier), they have to get to that level. We have to be able to support them with players like Ryan Graves, who has experience in those areas.’’ https://theathletic.com/2710725/2021/07/16/lebrun-thumbs-up-for-devils-trade-latest-on-zach-hyman-and-gabriel-landeskog/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NJDevils1214 Posted July 16, 2021 Share Posted July 16, 2021 Andy Strickland is saying that Landeskog is offered 6MM range over long term but he is asking for 9-10MM. He would prob get it on the open market. Do you guys give Landeskog 10MM to come to NJ? I don't think I go much higher than 8MM depending on term.

CarpathianForest Posted July 17, 2021 Share Posted July 17, 2021 Landeskog is a pipe dream. Word is he has interest in the Bolts or Knights. He clearly wants to be a passenger on a cup team Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mfitz804 Posted July 17, 2021 Share Posted July 17, 2021 It’s not the dollar amount, it’s the dollar amount at the term it’s going to take. He is going to want. 7 year deal from wherever he goes, I would think. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One of them will find a way to afford him. Maybe we can help. Edited July 17, 2021 by mfitz804 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
