DevilMinder Posted December 1, 2023 Share Posted December 1, 2023 That is fine, big roster changes I would prefer be in their own thread so it isn't buried. Hope Nemec does well! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hope Nemec does well! Curious to see if they actually play him tonight. So basically if he plays more than 9 games, Year 1 of his ELC kicks in, and he's no longer a "slide candidate"? Looking forward to seeing him play with the big club, whenever that may be. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But of course he's good for stupid penalties no matter where he plays. 3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NJDevils1214 Posted December 1, 2023 Share Posted December 1, 2023 If they can prevent burning a year of his ELC then I support that but with the injuries and the absolute dog sh!t defense they are playing I can't say that is looking too realistic at the moment. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I still support not burning a year of his ELC if you don't have to. We have to. There are ways to not have to. I assume Fitz couldn't make that happen(via a trade). 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If the difference between exercising or not exercising the first year of his ELC results in several extra wins, which could therefore mean we make or don't make the playoffs, it's easily worth it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We have to. There are ways to not have to. I assume Fitz couldn't make that happen(via a trade). It's early enough in the year that if he shows he really belongs, you "burn" the year and get him for 3/4 of a season. I mean it's clear the way this season is going that we're always going to need an extra body back there and none of us want it to be Smith. If he looks really out of place after 8 games, send him back and save the year. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nicomo Posted December 1, 2023 Share Posted December 1, 2023 At least Luke has already been QBing the PP. This would have felt like even more of a loss if they were still super dependent on Dougie in that regard. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
