SterioDesign Posted May 10, 2022 Share Posted May 10, 2022 I'm not even sure what i'm wishing for for the lottery... this draft class has been so underwhelming for me. All i hope i guess is that we don't fall to 6 or 7. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SterioDesign Posted May 10, 2022 Share Posted May 10, 2022 I'm also a bit torn on the Fiala option. I like him and i'm all to trade our first round pick. But he's sliiiiightly too old for me. He'll be 26 by the start of next season. Trading an 18 years with top 5 potential with many years having his rights vs a dude who would help right now in our current window but who knows. And even if we'd trade for a say.... 75-85 points guy that would give us that NOW and for 4-5 seasons then im fine if the top 5 becomes a 90 pts guy but only in 4-5 years. We need help now.

I'd still deal the first-rounder for Fiala (I suspect that won't be enough), but it's fair to wonder if that first-rounder's an asset worth trying to use to upgrade the goaltending (via trade)...I don't have a name though, as to who specifically would be worth that kind of cost. But I agree, I'm not worried about the 2025-26 Devils...and I'm sure Nico, Jack, Jesper, Dougie, and others aren't either. Get the current club some help. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mfitz804 Posted May 10, 2022 Share Posted May 10, 2022 I don't know what goalies are available, but looking at the UFA list it's pretty slim pickings over there. Trade may be the only viable option unless you want to pay a fortune for someone over 30. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If they pick in the top 5 there will be a player there we will be thrilled to draft. Slafkovsky is the player I think would be the best fit here. His value has gone through the roof like Nico's did in his draft year. I think it will be a stretch for him to still be there after the top 3.

Guadana Posted May 10, 2022 Author Share Posted May 10, 2022 (edited) Slafkovsky is top-3 pick. I would say top-2. but Arizona and Mtl needs centers. I don`t care about FIala if we have an opportunity to pick Slafkovsky or Jiricek. But if they don`t - i`m not a fan of another small play driver, but it will really help on the distance of actual Nico, Jack and Dougie deals. But I would prefer to trade pick for top goalie\top goalie prospect. It`s a better management. because "turn the corner" is a questionable thingg, because Fiala will help to produce one goal every night. Bratt and Jack will produce one goal and Nico and Fiala will produce one goal, I do really think, if things will go in the right way, both duos will produce another goal on the constant basis. Three goals per game on the regular basis, but it will not fix devils problems and will not really help to be better team. And there are some players who can help to have better chance to produce more in the system. Reason why I want another moves. But regular +1 goal per night is a good thing anyway. Or win the lottery and somehow trade 1\2 pick+ for M Tkachuk. If he don`t wanna sign with Calgary. I cant imagine better compensation for him.

I’m over us drafting to build the future. We have cap space, granted a few are due raises, including Bratt’s hefty one. But we need guys now. We need help, now. If we keep doing this partial kick the can the road approach, we’ll turn into the Sabres Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
