Isles accept, doubt Montréal does though

Why would New Jersey ever consider that? Marino is way better than Matheson Gritsyuk is a decent prospect, and the Devil's 1st is 100% going to be higher than Winnipeg's unless they manage to steal the last wildcard spot in the East and go on a run to at least the conference finals

going off of about 20 acgms that have Marino as 3 RD on not a very great d-core

What's this "not very great d-core" you are referring to? By next year all of Hughes, Hamilton, Marino, Siegenthaler, and maybe Nemec too will be better defensemen than every single defenseman on the Habs roster. That's 5/6 so if the d-core's not very great the 6th guy must be prone to shoot the puck into his own net like twice a game.

Welp, this is just wrong. It's been banged up if anything. I can see Marino at 3RD because of Hamilton and Nemec...but he's not a bad player because he's 3RD.

I doubt CHI trades the 2nd overall pick if that's where they land. NJD doesn't do that trade anyway. So, the CHI proposal is m00t.

Chicago is in no position to trade down in the draft. Much more likely to trade up if anything.
