I feel like Holtz and a 1st is similar to Faber and a 1st but Holtz is somewhat better but you’re getting Meier for an extra playoff run so it evens it out. I’m pretty high on Faber tho
I think that sounds about right, but Faber was probably more expendable for LAK (Doughty, Roy, Clarke, Durzi, Spence, etc). Holtz really isn’t in NJ.
My guess was - Prospect like Mukhamadullin or Gritsyuk along with a 1st if done at draft, add another 1st or 2nd and another prospect if done at deadline.
Ballpark…
Muk + 2023 1st (at or near draft)
Muk + 2023 1st + 2024 1st (at deadline with extension)
Gritsyuk + 2023 1st (draft)
Gritsyuk + 2023 1st + 2024 2nd + Zetterlund (deadline)
Casey + 2023 1st (draft)
Casey + 2023 1st + 2024 2nd + Bahl (deadline).
…with $8m to $8.25m extension (for both Meier and Bratt).
Otherwise not worth it.
