Wonder if he'll be there when we pick Things can obviously change in a hurry, but he’s projected to go right around where we pick. I’ve seen several mocks with him to the Sabres the pick right after the Devils. He’s definitely who I want the most at the moment. His dad was one of my favorite non-Devil players ever. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nessus Posted April 28 Share Posted April 28 I like Tij Iginla a lot, but with Calgary picking right before the Devils, is there any way they would pass on him? I'm starting to like Brandsegg-Nygard for the Devils' pick. I could see him shooting up the rankings if he has a good world championship tournament. If Zeev Buium is available when the Devils pick, I think you have to take him, even if he is somewhat redundant in our system. More high quality assets are always better. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NJDevils1214 Posted April 28 Share Posted April 28 (edited) If the pick is used I hope our guys are copying their homework from Dallas' crew but of all the recent drafts this is most likely to be the one where NJ trades the pick before using it if Fitz is really out turning over rocks like he says. Maybe the tank was all part of Fitz's plan to not give SJ the second first rounder for Timo lul 🧠. EDIT: does anyone know the odds of NJ staying in the top 10 vs getting bumped to 11?

capo Posted April 28 Share Posted April 28 It'll be pretty hard for Calgary to pass on Iginla, if he's still there. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Devilsfan118 Posted April 29 Share Posted April 29 Unless they win the lotto there is absolutely no way they should use this pick for a prospect, right? No way a kid picked at 10A will help this current core in the next 2-3 seasons...? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No way a kid picked at 10A will help this current core in the next 2-3 seasons...? In a strong draft like this one, that top 10 pick is worth a lot. If they get a player for the pick, it better be a very good one. And I'm getting less inclined to use it on a lot of the goalie targets that have been suggested in the media. I would definitely use the pick, possibly as part of a trade package, for a goaltending prospect that is on the brink of breaking into the NHL. Askarov, Dustin Wolf, and Wallstedt would be some options. A cool potential scenario is if Calgary gets to pick #9 with a player they really like (e.g. Buium, Dickinson, Catton, etc.), but also want Tij Iginla. I would be willing to trade them #10 overall for Dustin Wolf so they could have both. If it's for Ullmark, I think I would rather just keep the pick, and find cheaper goaltending help elsewhere. A player like Brandsegg-Nygard could help the team quicker than most would think. And if not him, imagine a defense made up of Hamilton, Nemec, Luke, Marino, Seamus Casey, and one of Buium/Dickinson/Silayev from this draft. A good system and even average goaltending would be all you need. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wait until the world championship is over, and the highlights start coming out. Hard not to be hyped about Brandsegg-Nygard. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
njbuff Posted May 17 Share Posted May 17 Like I said, the 10th overall + to Nashville for Varoslav Askorov. Saros is one of the best goalies in hockey and has a lot of years left, so Nashville should try and get what they can for a top prospect who is NEVER going to a full time goalie for them.

Nice dream but issue is Askorov isn't ready for NHL minutes. Consensus seems to be he's still 2-3 years out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
