So because you don't get something the rest of us can't enjoy it?

Not sure but they already matched

Completely forgot he existed to be honest

@NS if there was ever a time for it....

Botterill moved O'Reilly, supposedly, for locker room stuff. I'm not saying it's everything, but on a younger team with little-to-no playoff experience...

You guys are gonna like this

Getting awfully hard to crack this lineup if you're Alex Nylander

Or does Reinhart move to 2C?

I mean it makes sense from Botterill's point of view. If Risto really has no value to get a 2C from someone, might as well blanket Mitts as much as possible and hope for the best Also, Tanev got $3.5M/6 years, just saying

That's a good point

I keep trying to figure out this lineup and I can't Skinner - Eichel - Sheary Olofsson/Johansson - ?? - Reinhart Vesey - Mitts - Erod Zemgus - Larsson - Okposo

The problem is, only Risto - Mitts - Reinhart have any value that are likely to bring back a 2C in return; Mitts isn't going anywhere as Botts first pick, and I really, really don't wanna lose Reinhart

I hope he can at least play RW. Does anyone know his style of play at all?

I know he's not Leino but that reeks of Leino

Yeah, looks like it (caption under the photo) https://www.northjersey.com/story/sports/nhl/devils/fireandice/2019/02/25/how-they-line-up-marcus-johansson-takes-morning-skate-nj-devils/2977657002/

His is called a joke to make a laugh ? A good indicator but not definitive of where he plays

Does he play left? If he does he's our 2C then I think

That's the impression I get too, but 2 year term (I know it's for injury reasons) does line up perfectly with when Casey should be ready for that role Does anyone know which wing side he plays? If it's LW that's a pretty big indication he's our 2C IMO. Plus, if he is, maybe we can get Ehlers now through Risto?

Zadorov is pretty bad, or average on his best day

There's our 2C?

They suck, need to start a rebuild

External candidates: Anze Kopitar Tyler Toffoli Mikael Granlund Radek Faska Mikael Backlund Derek Ryan Craig Smith That's just the west, I have a hard time believing we're trading with anyone in the East With Duchene in Nashville now I think Granlund is a real possibility, the problem is they don't want Risto, and as far as 'win now' moves we don't have anything else left to offer

I just can't see us offer sheeting someone when we have Dahlin who someone else can turn around and do it to us

Casey isn't the same player. I understand he's not a 2C right now but let's not act like he's the same, 25pt player
