Mercer isn't someone I see the Devils moving for a guy with 2 years left on his deal that doesn't address their biggest need (goalie). Nylander, makes them better, sure, but for a team that already has a strong top 6 forward group, it's a bit of a hat on a hat.
As far as Severson, he's a pending UFA and it seems like the Devils have enough in the system to replace him and are ready to move on. If they're out of it at the deadline, I think a package headlined by Robertson and a pick would be enough to pry him out (pending Robertson showing that he can actually stay healthy). If you need to send Holl back to make the cap work, I don't think they say no, but don't count on them assigning any value to him as a trade asset.
