lol
Devils ain’t trading 2 players one who is captain. And our other has full no trade clause. Ur mad obviously canucks getting bent over lol. And Quinn wants to be a devil Lfg devils baby
Enjoy dougie Hamilton and possibly Casey or Nemec some other prospects and picks!!!
We are not getting Hishier back in a deal Devils need him along with Hughes to make the playoffs
Why cant they wait? Its a year and a half? If they wouldnt do somethinglike Hamilton and Nemec or Casey- maybe a pick- I wouldnt be touching that. Player loyalty is one thing but youre not buying in on Quiinn- youre just buying on him a year and a half earlier than you otherwise could. Id pay a premium for him but Alvvin will be looking for a showstopper and thats a pass for me. Unless they go the other way and its a boat load of futures- NJ is set up like crazy for the future right now- a year or two outside of the draft would barely affect them…
Why wouldn't NJD wait? Because they miss out on 2 kicks at the can when teams only get a limited number of playoff runs in their window. And because whatever team has Quinn's rights can offer 2 more years on an extension. Fans of the Devils and other teams that think Vancouver will give Hughes away for cheap are delusional. Rantanen was on an expiring deal and still brought significant assets twice! Dealing Hischier doesn't make sense for NJD, but Bratt+++ should definitely be in play. They can get another rental winger at the deadline. Or pay up more to include Kiefer Sherwood.
Bratt, Nemec, 1st & 2nd round pick for QH… Canucks should flip Bratt for younger assets – but the worst owner in the NHL Aqua-man wouldn't allow it
NJ should go talk to Chicago. Canucks wants Bedard because he will stay long term, not a bunch of rentals. This will be a 3 way trade.
Allvin and Rutherford want to save their jobs. No rebuild in the works
Nucks will get garbage back…100%
Quinn will sign with Van for 25 mil a yr but 15 mil in NJ
ill take Hischier, Nemec and 2 1st for Hughes
We get that you need a #1 or #2 center. It won't come from NJ. Good luck to anyone who gives you that without the assurance of an extension past 26-27.
If it's NJ, it's likely Nemec, Mercer, and 2 firsts that they can do, give or take an asset or player of that caliber.
If you're going into a rebuild, why would you even want a 26 yo back (Hischier/Bratt/etc) in return when trying to get younger to fit the new timeline?
I’ve seen about every trade proposal on Twitter for Hughes and 90% of them are laughable.
Devils aren't trading their Captain. And…BYE
How about Quinn Hughes stays and Jim Rutherford goes to New Jersey 10:06
"He wants to play with his brothers" doesn't mean he's going to NJ. I mean, it would be the easiest current path to see that happen, but it's not the only path. Fans shouldn't act like that's what'll happen unless Hughes says he'll only play for that team.
NJD can’t sit and wait he could end up in Detroit or anywhere love it and his brothers come join him! The longer NJD take to put them together they all could end up elsewhere
Tank so we get number 1 draft pick for f sacks and get rid of everyone and let's get good trades and top picks im excited about it
No way NJD are moving either Bratt or Hischier, we'll take our > 95% chance of getting Quinn in FA.
From the understanding I have is that if they go ahead with a trade with him he has demanded let it be to Detroit. If that is truly the case then Detroit has leverage over Vancouver.
