Devils...do...not...need Horvat

They also don't need to trade Marino...

Surgery? Devils. Kings, Isles do not submit to the amputation.

The Kings' alleged need for Thatcher Demko is highly overrated.

If they wanna make a playoff run Copley and Quick isn't gonna cut it. That has shown this entire season.

And what has Demko shown "this entire season"?...

-Devils pass. Why would a team making a playoff push remove one of their top D at the deadline to add a guy they don't need? They already have Hughes & Hischier at 1C/2C so either they're paying this crazy price for an upgrade at 3C, or they're paying this crazy price to play a top 6 center out of position. Just bad use of assets by the Devils, so they would pass.

-I don't think you'd need to send a pick with Schenn; I assume his value is around a 3rd and Pool Party is more reclamation project than positive asset at this point.

-Isles pass. Even with the retention, Boeser would be more expensive than Bailey and has an extra year of term. He's not a cap dump, but he's not worth Raty & a 2nd.

-Kings are not trading Jonathan Quick, that would be nuts. Worst case they roll with 3 goalies over the last three weeks of the season if they're worried about losing Copley to waivers; I also think that they would be more in the market for a rental goalie than one with term, since they have Cal Petersen signed for 2 more years. And, for what it's worth, the supposed "upgrade" in Demko put up an .883 SV% and 3.93 GAA before getting hurt; Quick is at .884/3.34. Doesn't feel like the value is anywhere near appropriate here - I could buy a Demko for Petersen+ "change of scenery" trade, maybe, but the Kings are not trading their franchise icon this close to the end of his career.

Isles laugh at your proposal...wow

Isles do not want Boeser at any cost. you would have to pay us to take him and that contract.
