Dawson Mercer is a non starter for a trade. Devils decline

Why would the Devils sell Mercer for futures? And not even good futures?

"improve" depth okay there. What a horrible trade Devils give up Mercer for a bunch of bums.

Counteroffer... Mercer for Draisaitl...

I don't see why NJD does this. BUF gets good value, but not sure why they would do this. & EDM is not trading that many assets for Mercer. He is no Tyler Jeannot!! Lol!!

Oilers already have the best top 6 in the league and this is massive overpay and I would rather keep Mcleoud

With all due respect...McJesus & Draisaitl don't make 6... they are 2 of the best in the league at forward, but the rest of their forward corps leaves a lot to be desired. That said I agree it's a massive overpay

I’m talking about top 6 lol and did u forget about Hyman Nuge Kane ? I think they had the best top 6 before adding brown also Foegle and Mcleoud is pretty solid to have on ur third line oilers easily have the best offence in the league

Nuge is definitely one of the most underrated players in the league. As for Kane, he can score 4 goals one game then disappear for 15 games. Hyman is a younger better skating Rust, but doesn't move the needle much to me. They have a great offense, but "best top 6 in the league" to me is more than just offense

Fitzgerald hangs up the phone as soon as Mercer's name is mentioned.
