Quoting: TJTwolf
I think it would need more than that but you'd probably be better gambling on the '25 1st being lower on a bounce back season (especially with the additions) and package that with other picks/prospects. Might take a chunk but it would be effectively a full reload filling most of the current holes and probably popular with Colton being a Jersey boy and all that jazz. Could even send you Wood back as well as he's fitted nicely with Colton. Would allow us to keep Trenin at least rather than NJ signing him lol.
I'd rather NJD go for Trenin than wood, although losing wood, McLeod, and Boqvists speed in the bottom 6 has been a killer
People don't want to talk about it due to the on ice stuff, but from a hockey perspective McLeod was hard carrying the bottom 6.
A fully healthy devils team this year (which we never really had) had a bottom 6 of:
Mcleod-Mercer-Holtz
Haula-Lazar-Bastian
Due to injuries and trades it's been
Macdermid, Lazar,Holtz,Nosek,Willman,Tierney and other garbage in there
