Devils Roster update no6

Chicago accepts

Trotz backhand slaps you with a rotten catfish for that proposal.

Ther is no chance Jersy makes that deal with Chicago, they could put Bastian on waivers and send him down for minimal cap impacts if he clears or buy him out with a $450,000 cap hit for the next two seasons. To give up a 2nd round pick would be ludicrous.

We are dumping Bastian with a 2nd round pick? I don't think that would be necessary. Foo will never be an NHLer.

Nix Forsberg from Nashville side...would be one of the two goalies. Holtz or a pick...maybe secondary asset.

Evangelista is a complete non-starter for anything involving NSH. Not even a change he gets moved. NSH is already unlikely to move Saros because Askarov is not 100% ready for an NHL starter's crease based on what we have seen in the AHL playoffs (injury aside), so NSH will need a goalie to help him get there. That said, in the unlikely event that Saros is moved, it will not be for that package. Holtz and Palat are of little interest as NSH has wing prospects that are either equal to or better than both of those players.

If you want to get NSH's attention for a Saros deal it is going to start with either Mercer or Casey.
