I mean I'm absolutely drooling over this, but the Devils definitely don't do that Sharks trade.

That's a MASSIVE overpayment for Couture

What's even the point of even trading for Couture?

I can’t say no fast enough. No, just no.

Shut up guys!!!
This is Doug we accept! Thanks

As a Sharks fan, not sure Cooch has positive value atm

He does, but only for a team that's likely to make the playoffs.

Devils don't need Couture.
Probably wouldn't be in top-6 (Hughes and Hischier will be there).
So, an $8 million x 6 years for a 32-year old declining 3C, should probably cost much less.
Perhaps even San Jose moves assets to New Jersey to take the contract.
At the very least, retain 50% of Couture's salary for that price.
(or add William Eklund)
