AJ and Kap are pretty much the same league wide. If anything, AJ is probably higher due to his offensive upside. Kap is more valuable to the Leafs bc he fits what Leafs needs more. Kap is Grabner 2.0 while AJ could be Hoffman 2.0.

Aj is injured! Highly doubt any team in need of wingers will take on him. Or any team for that matter.
Also we will have to give up kapanen & 2021 1st to probably get a top 4 d with these trading prices
To me I think AJ injury might be an advantage for a tanking team.
If it is Subban with retention, I think Barrie and AJ might just do it. Either Devils find a trade partner for Barrie or a 3 ways deal. Barrie could fetch a 1st and a roster player/ A prospects, along with condition of another pick if he resigns.
Are you allowed to trade injured players in nhl? In mlb, nba, & nfl it's not allowed
They allowed it with Kane a few seasons ago. Don’t recall they changed the rules.
I mean the other thing is dubas would have to convince devils interm gm who basically conned 2 teams into overpayment

Murphy has been better that Manson over the last 2 seasons.
I think Barrie and how much Devils willing to retain will be keys.
From the looks of it, Barrie should get a 1st rounder(which will be in the 20s, due to the team trading for him), a top prospect and a mid round pick. Like I said on another thread, I won’t be surprise Oilers will offer Bouchard, Poolparty and a mid rounder for Barrie.
Barrie is not a bad player but Leafs just have way too many injuries in the back end for Barrie to play to his strengths.

He also called Kadri declining a trade to Calgary and then the Colorado trade.

Well one of them was Lou... Everyone can con Lou when it involves an over-the-hill vet.
And nothing about Brisebois suggests he is really a competent trader. I guess he got a 1st + 3rd out of JT Miller but that just looks like market more than anything, and VAN easily won that trade with how Miller has been playing. The rest are ho-hum trades that Dubas makes in his sleep.
Dubas has a much better record in trading than both.

Honestly, as a Devils fan, I'd be moderately surprised by a trade of either Severson or Subban at this point. Obviously Vats should be gone, but I think this team is going to want some minute eaters on defense because we have some problems there and no immediate solutions, tbh. Severson's age still meshes with the rebuild, and he's got term and a good price. Subban just kind of exists to eat a lot of minutes at this point and get his teeth kicked in while doing it.
I just have a weird feeling that we will keep him this year. See if he rebuilds anything next year. I just don't know where his trade value would be that would honestly make it worth shipping him off to make it worth it. There's value in him playing a lot and getting his butt kicked for us every night lol.
I don't think that we are done trading, but there are more important guys to work on there. Palms because of the valuable return, and Vats because he's a rental. I think a PK trade could be complicated.

I do not think there is any incentive for New Jersey to trade Subban at this point. Might as well keep him.
Severson, if he gets some young NHL pieces like what we can offer, maybe makes some sense. Especially since New Jersey seems to have more high end prospects on defense than on the wing at this point... Well I guess Nolan Foote plus the returns on Vatanen and Palmieri too, but I like Jersey's defensive prospects more than most of their forwards at this point. That's mostly from watching Binghamton and Ty Smith though. Smith should be an NHLer next year and he plays the RD in Spokane almost exclusively.
Ah mike litorus followed up with the hallowed “trades fall through” back up plan did he/she? What a surprise. This twitter account, if legit, has to nail this trade minimum 24 hours before anyone else. No “trades fall through” that’s Eklund shit against the wall trope
Its worth a shot though. If he strikes gold again he could probably build an entire career out of this. If not then he's just another guy that got lucky once.
only way I trade the 2021 1st is if we are a getting a top dman and then moving Barrie for a 1st we can’t go 3 years without a first
eklund did it, I wonder how much he makes per year. He called maybe 3 things right? One of those was lockout related I believe so yeah this guy could be hoping for the same luck to build a website off of
Our last 7 first round picks are all on the roster. I can't think of another teams that's been that good in the first round. If any team can afford to miss one or two, it might be us.
Plus Robertson is playing better than most 1st rounders from last year anyways and Abramov is tearing up the Q.
If you draft well the difference between a late 1st and 2nd's / 3rd's doesn't matter a whole lot.
I remember watching one trade deadline and he was 2 for 23 at one point on his predictions lol He sold the website a few years ago I believe.
