No way NJ does this with the 10th pick.

This would just be stupid

Ullmark is not worth 10OA

Maybe not to most teams but when you’re desperate for a goalie like NJ is Ullmark is worth it. Its Ullmark, Saros or Markstrom. Markstrom is almost 35. Saros is gonna cost close to 7-7.5 a year on his next deal. Ullmark shouldn’t get more than 6ish. Maybe the Bruins throw in Merkulov to even out the balance

Still not worth 10OA

I mean the GM said 10 was on the table. So far it looks like Ullmark is the only goalie for sure getting traded so NJ won’t have too many goalies to choose from

That doesn’t mean it throws out market values

The value of a player is literally dictated by demand. If multiple teams are interested in Ullmark and he’s the only goalie available for trade the value goes up
