I don't get the trading Schneider thing. Coming off of injury and his worst season you can't expect any kind of return. It's not like the team is in cap trouble or anything either. We have some promising guys in the pipeline but nobody ready to be a starter.

You always blame the goalie remember.

apparently Kovy is checking out LA. Would be funny if he ended up going to LA, after the whole LA vs NJ thing several years ago. good times.

CHI Get:
Cory Schneider
Pavel Zacha
Steve Santini
2nd round pick (2019)

NJD Get:
Alex DeBrincat
Corey Crawford
3rd round pick (2018)

You think after all of these years I would have figured this out.

What is going on here ? Why are the devils giving up so much for one good asset in debrincat, a down grade in crawford and a down grade in draft pick plus we are addng a guy who was a 6th overall pick 2 years ago and a decent enough shut down prospect. I dont understand what the it is in that package that you thinks the devils want that badly?

You know what our team needs? Defense. How should we get more defense? By trading away our defense.

You’re not thinking big enough yet. Trade away our defense and start a relative unknown in goal.

Do you guys think tkchuk is nhl ready this season ? And do you feel he has a high enough ceiling being an older player in the draft. I personally love players who play his style. But they are usually gambles...
- Shampoo

He’s a little rough around the edges but I’d love for them to trade up to get him.

Starting to believe he will be joining PDB in San Jose.

hope so. i like rooting for the sharks.. mostly cuz of jumbo joe. Kovy would just add to it. I'm not one of those people who feel personally violated because he went back to his own country with his own family to make more money for his own self.

I agree, I don’t hate on Kovy. He did us a favor really, after the latest CBA changes that contract would have been disastrous.

I wasnt either. But I hate how he can come back and choose any Cup calibre team. I can understand Jumbo Joe, Bourque, people who put in the effort and work. This is annoying.

Draft start at 7 ?

I just saw Washington trader for Colorado's 2nd round pick. Do you think the Devils can trade #17 for the Caps 31st pick and the newly acquired 2nd round pick?

The Devils might be able to draft Jett Wooooooo at 31 and have a 2nd round pick in this draft. Should Ray do this if the trade is available?

You can get a lot more than 31 and 47 for 17.

With orpik traded the caps have more than enough room to keep Carlson

Not many great UFA options and the 5 mil bump in cap gave teams breathing room to retain RFAs. Agreed, probably a boring offseason. Don’t rule the Oilers or Habs doing something dumb though.
