Sujet: Deadline
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Bcarlo25</b></div><div>sounds like its injury related. he was pretty banged up at the end of last season.

regarding their relative values, I think this is something of a shiny new toy syndrome. Lindholm has had norris and AS votes in multiple years as a defensive defensemen. that's hard to do. I have always viewed him as a low end 1, or an elite 2. Hanifin I've always viewed as a low end 2, and a good 3. There's nothing wrong with that. He's still worth a lot. It's just weird that flames fans think he's worth unprecedented value, and get defensive when the rational take is suggested. This isn't abnormal. happens at the deadline every damn year.</div></div>

Hopefully its just injury related

Regardless of whos better, I'd gladly have both in the top 4, at the right price of course

Sujet: WHAT is the best deal for Tanev and Hanifin
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Bcarlo25</b></div><div>ahhhh, but the thing is - he's a rental. this is just a definition at this point. expiring contract = rental trade value. If Calgary wants to change that they could allow a team to agree to terms on an extension prior to a trade, but that is extremely rare. so regardless of whether or not a team winds up extending Hanifin, he's a rental. That's just the way it is, and how the league treats it. again go back to the whole, "look at every other expiring contract trade in the last decade," bit.</div></div>

On capfriendly there’s the whole “traded with extension thing” that people use to pretend their rentals aren’t rentals. It doesn’t happen in real life and even when it does, doesn’t significantly change the value

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Bcarlo25</b></div><div>In fairness, I do think Devils fans over value Mercer, yourself included.</div></div>

Maybe slightly, but the problem is the lack of comps out there.

When’s the last time you’ve seen a top 6 quality producer still on his ELC get traded?

Like you look at the Dach and Newhook deals. Both those guys were not nearly as productive as Mercer, and had finished their ELCs out.

Dach got 13th overall+a 3rd
Newhook got 31st+37th

Mercer who still has the rest of this year on his ELC left and who is frankly just a much better asset imo, how much does he get.

And think about all the teams that would be buyers on Mercer.

He can play every position up and down the lineup. He can kill penalties and play on the PP. He has 0 injury history (Ironman). And every single team can fit him into their salary cap situation.

Rebuilders can get him and sign him for 8 years
Contenders can use his RFA years to get him dirt cheap.

Every single team in the league would want and be able to bid on Mercer if he hit the market

If mercers leaguewide value is that much lower than NJD fans claim, we should really be knocking down our contract expectations on Mercer by a million or 2. Personally I hope his value is low and we can get him for 8 years at 5 mill AAV
