Palmieri

Very fair trade, NJ accept

Both Frolik and Palmieri decline, little bit of an overpayment IMO

Few things, maybe both have each team on their NTC. That being said since Frolik didn't have MIN on his 10 team "no" list, I'd be shocked if NJ was on it, minutes away from NYC, there are worse places in the world to live.

Palmieri has an 8 team "no" list and to your point, almost certainly all 7 Canadian teams are on the list. But the opportunity to play playoff games, and spend a year and change playing along side Gaudreau, Tkachuk and Monahan, would bode exceptionally well for Palmieri heading into UFA, his last chance to really cash in.

My mistake on Palmieri i thought he had a full NTC. Frolik mah or may not have NJ on his list. Generally players will submit a list containing a lot of the bottom tier teams however the list, i believe is submitted at the beginning of the season and NJ was speculated by many to be more competitive.
