I'm not spending that much on Subban. He's looked quite sub par.

I think Subban would look wonderful as a 4D, would be a great add at that position. Not sure we can pay him 6 million to do that and still sign our prospects. That's money that we can't pay Nurse, and we need to pay Nurse because he's been a beast.

Lmfao no. Subban’s value is at all all-time low even with 3m retained. Don’t want Hall back and MM is meh.

This does favor the Oilers but in fairness Pk is done. He's an average NHL dman now. Even at 3 million retained that's a crappy contract.
So how does it favour the Oilers then?? Take out Larsson and Subban and this looks like Broberg and a 1st, even if you discount Russel who is actually a serviceable defenseman, for Hall as a rental. There is no way the Oilers do this.

To be a fair to the OP any team that offers n over the top deal for an UFA of Hall and a shell of a player in Subban it out of there minds. I really think the Devils know this at this point and are just trying to mix things up and attempting to get the best they can get.

No interest at all in Subban. Overpaid declining asset. Even with 3 million retained.

Hall is a UFA that will command 10+ million in salary which the Oilers can't pay and still address needs for next season.

Pass.

The people saying this favours Jersey don't have a clue about a damn thing lmao. Edmonton says no and doesn't even return Shero's calls. A declining subban for another 3 years at $6m when we have up and coming offensive d-men in the system + a rental for Broberg, Larsson and a 1st? And you actually think NJ is going to get more for Hall while getting to dump Subban.

Subban might be overpayed, but he's far from terrible.
No, he's been pretty terrible this year. It's still early and a coaching change might change his performance, but he's been terrible.

Confusing trade. Why is Mueller even in it?

Edmonton says no pretty easily. We're not in a win-now mode, so taking on Subban--even at $6m--at the cost of some significant futures makes no sense.

Can we have Zacha now though? Please.

The Devils get a great return for Hall in Broberg+1st and then turn their mammoth cap dump into multiple shorter, more manageable contracts.

You haven't been paying attention to Subban if you think this favours the Oilers.

This year, yes he has. Kinda hard to pinpoint the exact reason though, as I have not watched any Devils games this season.

For those crapping all over Subban, it was just two seasons ago he had 59 points in 82 games. Also, last season, he was .5 PPG .

Sure, he's having a rough year, but I'm confident he'll pick it back up.

Than you can offer some insane package for him. The guy has easily been one of the catalysts for the Devils horrible season. His defending is MAB level and his offense has compeletely disappeared.

Did you even read any of my posts ? I agreed that he is having a bad season. A very bad one at that. But he's not "done" as some people make him out to be .
