Wow - There is a GM going for it and getting a player who bolsters them for years to come.

Presuming they can work out a LT extension with him.  Otherwise they've bought ~107 RS games,  ??? playoff games, and a $9MM cap hit for ???

A run at the cup and a piece they can trade next deadline if needed.

Not saying it’s a great or bad trade.  Let’s see the return.

Let’s see if he even signs.

Except they CAN'T trade him at the deadline next year unless they're scuttling next year's playoff run if they can't get him to sign a LT deal.

He has no choice in signing for at least 1 more year.  Can't see any situation where the Devils wouldn't match an offer sheet.

Good happy we didn’t  get him like the the rookies alot we dont need him 

[LGR4GM]

 

Dawson Mercer not part of the return.

Couldn't see how they could include him with no extension in place.

If its Nemec that will be the biggest mistake ever

Agree.  But if the Snarks are shopping Karlsson they'll want some sort of high end kid to replace him.

[Buffalonill]

Nothing yet. Official trade call hasn't happened. 

[Mr. Allen]

I’m really hoping Devils gave up a lot to get him.

And I’m really hoping Buffalo can climb up to the 1st wild card and Jersey passes Carolina.

Not if they don't resign him. And they just gave up major assets to also turn around and pay him huge money on top of it.

No thanks.

[LGR4GM]

Lol, this is funny.

So that's better Rousek roughly speaking and a 2023 first.

Zetterlund is better than Rousek. Or at least he’s bigger and faster and proven much more at the same age.

That said, if those are the 2 best pieces, Devils made out like bandits
