[Proposal] VAN-NJD


Recommended Posts

Everyday this lockout goes on hurts the Devils chances of making one more run and hurts the Canucks as they are primed to win now.

To VAN- Adam Henrique, Johan Hedberg

To NJD- Cory Schneider

Why for VAN- In Vancouver, we are quick to scapegoat our goalies, but I think Luongo is a top 10 goaltender in the league and we should keep him. Also, Schneider undoubtedly has more trade value than Luongo, and trading Schneider allows us to get a game changer like Henrique. Picking up Hedberg gives Lack one more year of seasoning before making the jump to the NHL. Reports are out that Kesler is not close to ready so Henrique fills in that 2nd line center too.

Why for NJD- Every day this lockout goes on, is a day older Marty Brodeur becomes. With no legitimate #1 goalie ready to take the reins, Cory Schneider is that guy. Giving up Henrique hurts but Jersey has proven you can win with an excellent goaltender alone. Share the work for one more season then let Brodeur retire and Schneider be that #1 guy.

I like the idea, of course it's not very likely we trade Schneider. If we do, we would need to make sure the other team is willing to overpay.

If we were to trade him though, this wouldn't be a bad deal. Seeing how Brodeur will likely only play one more year past this season, and they have nobody waiting in the wings to take over, we could be in a position to make them overpay.

Wouldn't mind seeing us get a little bit more in return such as Jon Merrill or, more realistically, Alex Urbom.
