Confirmed with Link: Boyle to the Preds for 2019 2nd rounder

[Blender]

2nd in 2019? I'll take it.

 

[Call Me Al]

would be surprised that we couldn't get more honestly, damn

 

[NjDevsRR]

Thats good value for a 4th liner, good job Ray.

 

[OmNomNom]

maybe it'll be a 2nd and conditional 3rd, if they make SCF

 

[mtnet]

Well done, glad the sale is underway

Also will add, I appreciate Boyle's honesty in interviews and mentorship fwiw in the locker room

Also wish him all the best with the run, his kid's health, and his own

 

[zharkenby]

So whose coming into the lineup to replace him?!?

Golden boi 47...

Seney will probably just center the 4th line.

 

[OmNomNom]

so are we officially rebuilding again lol

At this point who cares?

 

[NJDevils17]

I wonder if we flip a pick for Burakovsky. Something like this gives us more freedom.

 

[Cheddabombs]

Some of y'all are wild, that's a great return for Boyle

 

[NjDevsRR]

I would say retooling. We have the young forwards in place, now its time to compliment them, strengthen the D and goaltending. It can be done in one offseason.

 

[SteveCangialosi123]

Happy with the return. Go get a cup, Boyler.

 

[zharkenby]

At this point who cares?

True... sounds like nick lappin time to me!


Imagine a 4th line of Gabriel-Rooney-Lappin Hahahaha

 

[Oneiro]

Maybe could've created a little more of a market closer to the deadline, but what better return was realistic? Certainly not a first or a prospect that's anything more than B-tier.

Think Rejean did good.

A rebuild is where you ship out core pieces. We're not making the playoffs and are selling rentals, would you rather we keep them and let them walk for free?

 

[Davegarri]

Keep it coming Ray!

2nd round picks have been very valuable for us in recent years as trade pieces

 

[Hypernova]

Nice, next up is Johansson

On the other hand, Shero just set the market for forwards. Could help us in trading Johansson.

 

[MNDevilsfan]

A 2nd round pick is a totally respectable return for Boyle. No problem with this trade whatsoever.

Glad he's heading for a western conference team I don't mind rooting for, so long as the Devils are out of the race.

 

[EnglishDevil]

Glad we’re not dragging our heels in terms of selling.

That’s a tidy return for Boyle, he’ll be a nice piece for the Predators down the stretch. I’ll definitely be pulling for them in the West now.

 

[SpeakingOfTheDevils]

2nd round pick? Word.

I’ll miss Boyle, but this had to happen. We’ll reach out to him in free agency, for sure.

 

[OmNomNom]

so to summarize we have

(1) 1st rd (ours)
(2) 2nd rd (ours, preds)
(1) 3rd round (ducks)
our 4, 5, 6, 7

so that's a total of 8 picks this year so far

we could theoretically sneak back into the 1st round with our (2) 2nds.
