Devils team discussion (news, notes and speculation) - 2023-24 season part III

[Guadana]

No. I wanted sociopath not a goon. Big difference. I specifically do not believe fighting is valuable.

Bardakov is little bit sociopath too. He was under the skin of the goalie in today game and created a lot of angry from his opponents all the time.

Damn, we traded him few minutes ago, forget that.

*cough*

Do you take IOU's?

 

[MadDevil]

Never mind

Ever have Angels Envy?

Yes. It's very good and they also make a mean rye. It's just not worth the price imo. If someone else is buying - HAVE SOME!

Just saw you are having some with the bottle pic. Nice.

That is in the category of I feel guilty if I add ice so it's always neat but I keep the bottle in the fridge to chill it. Same with Eagle Rare - so good and smooth you want it neat.

We are kinda in NHL Be a GM fantasy land, but trading Toffoli for a first + Kaliyev, flipping that first + minor pieces for Markstrom, and perhaps trading for Tatar (or similar) for cheap could be a tidy bit of work for Fitzgerald. Would be a nice combination of keeping the team competitive but re-allocating strengths to weaknesses.

Meier - Hischier - Bratt
Haula - Hughes - Palat
(Tatar) - Lazar - Mercer
Kaliyev/Holtz - Nosek - Bastian
Foote - Tierney

Bahl - Hamilton
Siegenthaler - Nemec
Luke - Miller
Smith - (Hamilton)

Markstrom
VV/Daws

Forward group still looks a bit weak, but that team could still compete for a playoff spot. Ideally this team needs another 3C or someone to step up internally to push Haula to 3C and Lazar down to 4C.

That hypothetical 4th line would be s-l-o-w. Do people not know how slow Kaliyev is? He slow.

I would go for a Tatar trade, ala Ponikarovsky 2.0 in 2013 if the bottom falls out for the Kraken (Oilers, Flames, Jets up next for them)

So slow we can reuse that Spider-Man running gif again if he comes here.
