Rumor: New Jersey Devils front runners for Johnny Gaudreau

[CanHeDoIt99]

Don't see him taking 12x7 from Columbus given he left 8 years 10.5 on the table from CGY cause he wanted to go home.

I expect Devils sign him by end of day.

If I am Lou I pick up the phone and call Chicago, St Louis and Vancouver and ask them how much to trade for Kane, Tarasenko and Miller, assuming we can sign extensions with them.

At this point you'd have to think Tarasenko could be had for a pretty reasonable price.

 

[HugeInTheShire]

12 per for 7 years? Hope he likes Ohio

Please stop you are inviting the stl horde into this thread to argue about value.

That would sink an otherwise great ongoing rebuild for NJ.

 

[yzerman]

12 million dollars can buy you a lot of platform shoes!Still think he lands in Jersey.

I sure hope Fitz is smart enough to walk away from anything even close to that deal.
Cap space is great, but it goes fast, especially if you're handing 12 per year to one winger.

 

[benedictTavares]

lol NJ and Isles fans were all in and now that we know the price we are each begging out.

 

[DoingItCoolKiwi]

If Johnny goes to CBJ there's probably a decent chance NJD makes a move for Laine

[Kranix]

I beg to differ Giana

 

[Connor McConnor]

Really? You think Jack Hughes and Johnny Gaudreau on a line together would be good in the Playoffs? They might put up 100+ points each every RS but that is the softest 1st line in league history

If I'm lou I walk at 10.5M, not a cent more

Tin soldiers and Nixon's coming....

Tin soldiers and Nixon's coming....

No kidding, I've lived there. Back when there was rule of law.

 

[Michoulicious]

NYI vs NJD vs CLB

This will be interesting, all are in the same division!

 

[Bruckuss]

The reality is, he doesn't really understand how this "cap space" works

 

[JTToilinginToronto]

Just sign somewhere FFS!

 

[SI90]

I feel like Columbus just acquires and signs players so they can trade them for assets eventually.

 

[PWJunior]

Some levity...

 

[Kranix]

Seravalli just said on Fan960 Johnny and the Devils are just working out structure and signing bonuses.

Gotta have NJ thrown in a pair of new PJs and bedsheets.

 

[SI90]

The holdup is negotiations are between Hischier and Barzal now and who gives up #13

Fitzgerald isn't holding a press conference tonight.
