Markstrom would be the perfect goalie for Schmid to spend a few years learning behind as well I assume they would want our first ? Which to me would not be worth it. Amy chance they take less ?

Lateralous Posted February 9 Share Posted February 9 Was that a 7-1 Devils win if the goalies are in opposite nets? Just now, LIDevsFan1 said: I assume they would want our first ? Which to me would not be worth it. Amy chance they take less ? No or it would have been done by now. Also, our 2024 1st is still tied up in the Meier trade 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NJDevils1214 Posted February 9 Share Posted February 9 Why would CGY want to trade Markstrom when they are in the playoff hunt? Not happening without massive over pay. At this point I am writing the season off and seeing what I can do over the summer. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ButlerBulldog Posted February 9 Share Posted February 9 3 minutes ago, Nicomo said: He lost his #1 goalie and probably won’t even miss a beat. There are two GLARING issues with this team right now. The HC and the goaltending. Can we at least address one or the other, Fitz?? That’s exactly it. In an alternate universe wherein the Devils and Flyers decided to swap coaches before the season, where are the two teams right now? The Devils are probably in the thick of the divisional and playoff races, while the Flyers are the worst team in the league. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How many high 1st rounders does this team need to be competitive? They already have 7 top 10 picks currently on the roster (Jack, Nico, Luke, Nemec, Timo, Dougie, Holtz). At some point they just need to bite the bullet and pull the trigger. The rebuild was supposed to be long over at this point.

Devs64 Posted February 9 Share Posted February 9 (edited) They scored first and got right back to Lindy hockey.

He (Fitz) is going to come out and say the answer is in the room, I’m convinced of it. he's going to ride the injury excuse this season and punt it. i’m this damn close to reaching acceptance with this, unfortunately. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’d hate to see Holtz moved, but if Lindy isn’t going to use him properly, then Fitz should use him to acquire a better goalie while the season is still salvageable. The alternative would, of course, be to punt this season and offload Toffoli. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
