Some NJD fans may not like that Sergachev deal, but I'd do it. It fills a big hole for them.

(would not recommend the COL deal, Zardorov is big, but not the answer for NJD def)

That is a gross overpayment for Palmieri. easy decline by the Avs

I don't know the New Jeresy prospects/young players well....Is Wood and Walsh high level prospects?

TB rejects

Wood is a decent 3rd liner and Walsh is a promising RHD who could make the NHL roster next season

Do you think so? I used Zucker as a baseline, PIT gave up a 1st, Addison (their top D prospect), and Galchenyuk.
Zucker career .54ppg 5 20 goal seasons 1 30 goal season
Palmieri career .60ppg 5 20 goal seasons 1 30 goal season
Just curious

Miles Wood is a size/speed player, plays LW. He is great at getting behind defense. Puck-handling is a little sloppy. Goes hard to net. Plays a bit chippy. At his worst, he is trying too hard for odd-man rush and is taking dumb penalties. At his best, he is changing momentum for a team with his hard-forechecking, net-charging style. Can play on any line, but mostly limited to left side.

Reilly Walsh is a recently signed player out of Harvard. Offensive RHD with moderately high ceiling. Patient, efficient, cerebral, quick, shifty. Can hang onto puck an extra second or two without coughing it up. Worked on power play in college. Could possibly that role in NHL. Solid defensive prospect, who would likely be 3rd pairing on good team, 2nd paring on lesser team....with upside from there.

Thanks !

I think Tampa passes and just lets New Jersey offer sheet him and take a risk hoping that New Jersey sucks again

Count on neither of these things happening.

Zads for a 2nd has been bounced around all over boards like these
