(Rumour) NJD offered 2nd overall + to CGY for RFA rights to Tkachuk

According to Bruce Garrioch, the Devils  made an aggressive offer at the draft, that including the 2nd overall pick and other pieces, to the Flames in exchange for the RFA rights to Tkachuk.

 

Garrioch also mentions that the Devils are likely to heavily pursue Gaudreau in free agency. 
 

hopefully there will be more substance to come regarding the above if true.

Miller (50%) for Nemec + Zacha

 

:P

 

 

 

You gotta wonder how much they value Nemec and whether they’d trade him right away.

 

Rumour also had it that they were trying hard to trade down. So kinda tells you they weren’t keen on anyone but Slafkovsky.

I take that as although they are a good regular season team, Entire core is some of the most gutless, Self centered players in the league.

 

Draft wright, let little Johnny walk and the culture instantly changes. Sign Malkin in FA and probably maintain the same pace 

 

Or sign VN & AB from COL and be even better than last year!

There aren't many players like Matt Tkachuk with an established track record who are in his age range.  Not surprised NJD made the offer and not surprised CGY rejected it (if it's true). 

Imagine then playing on the same team…

 

Would be a treat for sure.

Slafkovsky is like Draisaitl on the wing.  Mark my words.   

Good comparison. I was thinking more along the lines of Rantanen with more of a mean streak. Either way he's going to be a hell of a player. Montreal made the right move, although I'm surprised they didn't take Wright. 2 years in and Seattle has Beniers and Wright as a potential 1-2 and they're surely going to be bad next year as well.
