Gusev clearing isn't shocking, he's been terrible this season and he's expensive, even pro-rated. Devils are definitely gonna get nothing for him...

Since there is a one-week process for players to go through protocol before joining a new team, is the real trade deadline going to be something like April 5? Or is that protocol only for teams across borders?

The Devils are holding Palmieri out of practice and games - he's gone.

I kinda feel like the devils are better than their record and maybe a piece or two away from making a run next season. I wouldn’t necessarily classify them as dog poo poo garbage unlike our friends in Philadelphia...

A piece or two away? They are much worse than that. They're a couple of years away from being playoff contenders.

Hughes/Hischier/Blackwood/Smith are a good core to build on but they have zero depth and need their big prospects need to pan out.

Speaking of the Devils, what happened to Andreas Johnsson? I was never the biggest fan of his contract and fully supported him being a cap casualty for the Leafs but I still expected him to score some on the Devils. I heard he looked good when put on Hughes’ wing, but I guess he’s not getting any powerplay time?

He's been terrible in Ruff's system.

Hope we start seeing some deals with a week-quarantine required and six days until the deadline.

I doubt the Devils want to keep holding Palmieri out, I think he could be gone today or tomorrow.

Might I add, the Devils' leading scorer? Pavel Zacha

I do agree this will be a terribly uneventful deadline, but we know for certain Palmieri and Hall are going to be dealt.

Wahlstrom is banged up and that's why he hasn't played for a couple of games. Trotz loves Wahlstrom and he will definitely be playing once he's feeling ready.

Happy deadline day everyone! May your teams be less awful than mine.

Oleksiak is actually pretty good. That's a low-key good get for Edmonton.

fawning deference

They've shed a lot of cap, have a super young team (second-youngest in the NHL I believe), lots of guys on ELC's or RFA bridge deals, they traded Marc Staal, they're going to terminate Tony DeAngelo's deal (that's another $4.8m) and next year they have a lot more off the books because of dead weight buyout money. Lundqvist alone goes from costing them $6m to like $1.5m.

Cocaine Bear posted:

.... What? He's bad but they traded back for him Bowness seems to like him a lot too.

I mean, cool if true but... Why?

Oleksiak is quietly a good value D, in the higher echelon of defensive metrics. If he's played in a bottom pair role, he'll be just fine.

Yup, they did well for themselves this past off-season. They are in good cap shape.

Duck Rodgers posted:

Oleksiak would have been decent for the Jets. Ideally they get a shutdown left D to play with Pionk, and push Forbort to the 3rd pair. And then finally put Demelo back with Morrisey

so I guess Kulikov is coming back to Winnipeg

Kulikov to the Jets does make a lot of sense for both teams involved. Kulikov will probably get a 3rd or a 4th rounder. I'm fine with that, he's been decent for NJ.

Cocaine Bear posted:

Post all the heat maps you want he's not very good. Fine on the pk and bottom minutes but every coach seems to need him to play 20+ a night against good opponents. If he's gone I won't miss him, regardless of the return.

I think you've answered your own question. He's bad if you put him against tough competition and play him 20+ minutes a night. In a reduced role, Oleksiak provides fine value for a team that badly needs defensive depth.

Islanders extended Pulock for two years, unknown AAV.

Dallas claimed Vatanen, Ottawa claimed Mete.

Rangers signed Zac Jones and the plan is to play him in the lineup asap.
