Kovy should be able to pull in a nice return, whether it be a prospect or picks. It would be a gift. He will never play for NJ again but he could help out the future a little with his return via trade. Screw his demands. Trade his ass to the best taker.

I feel too badly for him

So true, if he demanded a trade I wouldn't even be mad.

Devils could definitely use KOVI.

But need defense more.
Look at What edmonton did.
Traded HALL for defense then signed LUCIC .

Do the same .
Sign and trade Kovi for say . ARIZONA LUKE SCHeNN .

Sign Shattenkirk , Sign Oshie .
Draft NICO


Hall -Nico -Oshie
Henrique - Zacha -Mcleod
Quenneville -Zajac -Palmieri
Wood - Blandisi -Thompson / Noesen
----
Greene - SHattenkirk
Severson - Schenn
Moore - Santini

- thechezman

Luke Schenn is terrible. Nevermind the fact Kovi would likely never waive to go to Arizona.

He'll likely ensure a trade before signing

Again, not the worst offer I've seen. Dallas might want a little more from NJ.

Shatty would be a big mistake IMO. He's gonna get a $7Mish contract. You guys could try and sign both Alzner and Del Zotto, and spend only a little more than you'd be spending on Shatty.

NSH and MIN are probably good teams to look at since they won't be able to protect all their dmen and they have an abundance of quality.

Agreed....the Devils are not 1 or 2 players away from competing, sign/trade for cheaper, younger players who might be stuck on good teams behind bigger stars. Maybe take a contract back from a team that needs space and get a pick or decent prospect back.

Here's my take on this

Don't sign Shattenkirk he's a middle pairing defenseman with a lot of offensive upside but what the devils would have to pay will come back and haunt them stay away, instead if I were Shero I would go all out trying to fleece a team or two for defense prior to the expansion draft we have the picks and cap space to do it even if we have to take a poop contract in return to get it done.

I'm all for Kovi staying but think he will most likely be traded if he signs but what realistically will be get in return for him? A second rounder or a decent prospect unless we make it a package deal could get interesting can't wait for everything to unfold over the summer.

Sign Oshie, Draft Patrick In Shero we Trust

MDZ is VERY underrated. He's really smoothed out his game and while he won't put up huge numbers, he's become a solid PMD who is very defensively sound.

I've still got this feeling MDZ is going to get a multi-year contract for too much money from someone, because puck moving.

Who knows. I think he'll garner around $3.5M to $4M a year and that's fair.

I'd take him in a heartbeat if the Pens had the room.

You want schenn less. Both make dumb decisions, but Schenn has cinder blocks for feet

Very true, at least MDZ has the physical tools to succeed at the NHL level. Schenn would be Anton Volchenkov 2.0

If you sign MDZ we could reignite the rivalry with DJ battles between him and Zibanejad
