@JMC9787 That said, I’m doing Larkin for Hischier and I’m not thinking twice about it.
You get one step closer to Quinn.
You save money with Larkin.
Larkin and Hischier are similar players.
Larkin probably fits the Devils even more honestly. Speed + maturity.
Hischier for Larkin 1 for 1 you don’t have to pay Hischier 12 mil, you save money with Larkin. Larkin + Hughes down the middle. You get Quinn next with the money saved and the extra Michigan guy. You do it tomorrow. You do it today.
@peshghi@RearAdBsBlog He’s gonna have his team for once and will be the hockey guy. Mehta will give him the keys. You have to think Fitz was pulling the strings. The end of the season the devils were a new team
@AlexC_NJD Sunny isn’t necessarily a “hockey guy”. I think this will work better for Keefe. It’ll be Keefe’s team strategy-wise. Sunny will control the roster
Dylan Larkin (5x$8.7M) to the Devils
Nico Hischier (sign and trade, 8x$11.5M) to the Red Wings
Somebody adds, both teams shake up their leadership groups and core after repeated disappointments. Wings get 2.5 years younger, Devils save ~$3M in cap.
Elliotte Friedman on 32T today mentioned the following names for the #NJDevils front office search:
Sunny Mehta, Tyler Dellow, John Chayka, Brendan Shanahan, Jamie Langenbrunner.
