We don't need retention now. You're right on yrs and when it was 2+ what was the return? Would you give the 10th OA for Holtz, because that's what you're asking NJ to do. Also Ullmark is 5 yrs younger. I'm fine with Markstrom, not for this yrs 1st.
Don't be ridiculous the original offer from NJ wasn't just Holtz. It was Holtz + Casey + NJ 2024 1st for Marky with retention.

SPECTOR’S NOTE: It’s rumored Flames ownership spiked the Markstrom trade to New Jersey because Calgary was still in the hunt for a playoff spot. There was also speculation that Conroy set a high asking price from the Devils including Dawson Mercer or Alexander Holtz, top prospect Seamus Casey and a first-round pick.
Even New Jersey fan sites agree that's probably what the deal Flames ownership shot down was. But hey keep dreaming and fantasizing about other teams giving you the top goalie your team so desperately needs at a lowball price.
If your GM doesn't get a decent goalie soon you'll all be crying he needs to be fired and replaced by some imaginary GM who can magically turn a bag of pucks into a young top goalie on a terrific long term contract.
