Devils trade isn't really close at all.
There's no point for them to trade a long-term core piece for two years of Nylander, especially when they probably won't be competing for the cup in that timeframe.
Wouldn't rule out Mercer being as good or outright better than Nylaner in two years time either.
Honestly don't see the point in Leafs trading Nylander either, he's a fantastic player on a good aav.
These last two years of Nylander pretty much covers the length of this current window of contention for the Leafs as well.
