Get taken to the absolute cleaners in every other deal this season, but this is the one Conroy has to sell upstairs haha

No with him it’s always about the money he doesn’t care about winning the Stanley Cup or his players. Edwards only cares that he gets revenue from at least 2 home playoff dates where he doesn’t have to pay the players.
You are giving him too much credit.
If it was all about money then I don’t think he’d be a cap team and buy out players and fire coaches.

Lol I'd do Mercer straight up for Markstrom, easily.

I think the link is to the wrong video, didn't hear it on there.

Sounds like ownership doesn't understand the value of goalies and see markstrom as their MVP. Then again, Dreger is flames mouthpiece at the moment trying to get NJ to up their price before deadline is over.

Conroy is just bad at this GM job. Losing trades, pushed around by the media, excuse making to the press, and media leaks. This guy looks in over his head

So what I'm learning is Conroy loves to play hardball with the eastern conference, but loves to get reamed by western conference teams.

Insane ask for a 34 year old goalie with only 2 years left on his deal.

Devils would be smart to walk away and look at other options in the summer.
Markstrom has played a lot of bad hockey since the Oil broke him a few years ago. That’s way too much for a really inconsistent G on a bit of a bounce back season. Buyer beware.
