The two primary goals heading into the offseason for the New Jersey Devils are to retain Timo Meier and Jesper Bratt. Obviously, both of them are pending restricted free agents and are set to receive possible pay increases. Timo Meier was a huge acquisition at the trade deadline and has proven to be a very valuable asset moving forward. If Tom Fitzgerald knows what’s best for New Jersey, his main priority should be to re-sign Meier before negotiating something with Bratt.

Would be nice if the Devils can lock Timo up for a reasonable amount.
Timo will be "happy" when he signs to a new deal in excess of 10 mill per.
if he signs for 8M then OK. Otherwise good riddance. Remember the Devils Cup winning teams and what uncle Lou did. If the player wanted too much Lou was never afraid to show him the door regardless of his star status. Team is always first! The same goes to Bratt. See what Florida did with Huberdeau. And he was their main man. Now Florida will likely win the Cup
8 x 9 mill
Timo fits there system so does Jesper Brat so I would try to sign both but I think Timo is much more important
Chemistry does not happen overnight. I do think he did well considering being traded at the deadline and coming into a new team, new system and intense playoff rivalry, While I hoped for more goals I think he had a good impact regardlessly. I think if he signs and has a fuff season with the team the chemistry will come. I have high hopes for him as a Devil, and I hope he signs here.
Timo has a qualifying offer of $9.5mil. He's not coming in for less than that.
Timo and Bratt would be absolutely braindead to not want to be apart of this team going forward if they want out they're honestly a f**** joke
