    Ace, you're a smart guy. Tell me, don't you think we could better, even much better, with the 9 million dollars we pay Hamilton!? Is he really worth the money? He can score 20 goals, but do we really need those 20 goals at that price PLUS all the defensive errors that turn into odd man rushes and the like. I think he incredibly overpaid and we could use that money better elsewhere. We proved we can lose with him and without him. We proved we can win with him or without him. It's a wash. Move this contract! your thoughts please!?

      @runninwiththedevils Před 8 hodinami

      @allaboutrecords I think he is a bit overpaid, HOWEVER, I do like him overall. You saw how we struggled when he went down. He can move the puck and is a Power Play beast. The team looks wildly different with him in the lineup IMO. That shot is a cannon. The Devils had to offer him crazy money to get him to come here. I think he will be a big part of the team for years to come as well. Dougie is one of the handful of guys with real experience. He isn't easily replaced. His contract does open him up for fair criticism though. I am hoping for a big year from him next year, along with many other guys.

    Zero chance Markstrom goes to Toronto, Leafs fans are delusional (don't blame them really 🤣). I think he's coming to Jersey... I think Fitz wants Markstrom 1A - Allen 1B... both will have 2 years left, and hopefully one of the 3 kids can step up. I don't mind it, but if it's for the tenth pick then they need to sweeten the deal - either players or salary retained 🤷‍♂

      @steverobinson8771 Allen only has next year left on his deal. Hopefully after next season, one of the kids in the farm system come up to backup Markstrom for a year of tutelage before taking over in 2026-2027.

    You said it yourself. "Goalies are somewhat of a gamble" that "fall off a cliff after a certain amount of time." Couldn't agree more, which is why I'm against trading away our first round round pick for Markstrom. What would be a bigger gamble than trading away a valuable asset like a #10 pick for a goalie who turns 35 next season?

      @runninwiththedevils Před 19 hodinami

      @nomaar1717 I will risk the #10 pick for Markstrom (with hopefully some retention) + another pick(s) or players before I risk the #10 AND Mercer or some other assets for Ullmark. (who will subsequently likely be signed to a 5 year-ish deal at ~$6M/per) Everyone is focused on Markstrom's age. Nonsense. I am not worried at all for 2 years. Ullmark is actually the BIGGER gamble due to the cost. (assets AND contract) Markstrom gives us a strong short-term solution until one of the young goalies in the minors are ready to take over....

    Speaking of finding another "power" forward to pair the boys with, I have a question for your thoughts! Barring any trade, what are your thoughts on ondrej palat maybe having a good bounce back year? I know he was a total dud last year but he showed some minor flashes of his great play towards the end of the year. Thoughts on maybe him re taking a 2nd line with PB&J? Great content as always! PS. I just got a Timo jersey for my birthday this year from the girlfriend! Proud to be in the fan club!

      @sinisterls4 It is possible. I am always willing to give a guy like that an audition in the Top 6. HOWEVER, if we are hoping to slot him into the Top 6 going into the season....we have already lost IMO. At this juncture he seems like a 3rd liner. Ideally we need a big powerful winger to pair with Jack. That would be ideal. Thanks for watching! Great gift from your girlfriend! The Timo Fan Club is happy to have you...

    @robertlamkin6464 Před dnem

    Hello, I am a BIG +-guy. I inadvertently judge a players worth by it. Thus, I look at Timo’s -35 as beyond horrendous. I therefore have a difficult time getting ginned up at all about him. What are your thoughts about Meier’s +-, and any thoughts that could dampen my fixation on that statement? Great program!

    • @runninwiththedevils
      @runninwiththedevils Před 22 hodinami

      @robertlamkin6464 GREAT question and welcome to the chat... I apologize in advance for the complete dissertation here, but I think this is a *very good discussion topic* that is worth deep diving into. I am a big Timo Meier guy, and absolutely love the dude. Maybe after reading this, you will eventually grow to love him too. I also had the temptation to be infatuated with +/- in the past... It is a nice stat to have for reference, but I would not put too much into it. I used to care about it more than I do now. The reality is, while it paints a picture of sorts, to me it is extremely limited in it's portrayal. To be clear, I do value this stat, but I won't let it be my "end all be all" when analyzing a player. Let's peel back some layers here when looking at the case of Timo Meier... - *Only 2 Devils regulars finished on the right side of the +/- this season!:* Kevin Bahl at +1 and Curtis Lazar at +10 (McLeod was a +6 through 45 games before he was banished) COMPLETELY INEXCUSABLE and can NEVER happen again, but that tells the story of a tragic season for the New Jersey Devils. - *The Devils gave up a staggering 283 Goals Against.* Only the Canadiens (289) and Blue Jackets (300) gave up more. This is extremely concerning, and hopefully dramatically improves next season with the combination of a new/legitimate NHL goaltender and a slightly revamped defense. Playing on a team that got scored on so often will make it difficult to finish the season with a respectable +/- for anyone. - *Power Play points do not count towards +/-* Timo did a good chunk of his damage on the Power Play. Timo Meier had 10 Power Play Goals and 7 Power Play Assists, for 17 total Power Play Points (17 of 52 points; 32.7%!) Nearly 1/3 of this man's production! +/- does not reward this production whatsoever! While 5 on 5 play is PARAMOUNT; Power Play Production certainly matters. How can a stat REALLY tell me the story (or "worth" as you said) of a player if it doesn't take anything he does on the Man Advantage into consideration?!? -*Empty Net Situations Are KILLER!* Many times late in games, Timo would be on the ice with our goalie pulled, looking to tie the game. (because he is one of our best offensive players) There were LOTS of goals scored into our Empty Net this year. Unfortunately, this is not an easy stat to find online. If anyone knows where to find it, please let me know. All of these goals are another MINUS for the guys on the ice. Timo was certainly on the receiving end of several of these. (as was Luke Hughes!) Timo Meier's -35 was atrocious. It was terrible, there is no sugarcoating it. In his defense, the Devils' defense was porous and the goaltending was abysmal. A recipe for disaster. Not to make excuses, but Timo was playing through a nagging injury for a good portion of the season. We saw a different player when he was further along in his healing process. He was one of our best players from March on. (26 points, -6 in March and April combined) The overwhelming percentage of his overall MINUS came earlier in the season when he was injured and struggling. He was constantly misused at LW instead of his natural position of RW, and was STARVED of Power Play 1 time. When he was healthier (I won't say fully healthy, because he NEVER was...more on that at the end) and switched back to his natural RW and used on the Power Play (how he was utilized when he was lethal in San Jose; what a novel concept!) we saw a monster. An absolute monster! Timo is our only true POWER forward. He brings an element that nobody else can. A rough, tough, gritty, grinding SOB that can beat you many ways. A rocket one-timer from the circle, a tip/deflection in front, a pretty deke, or a pounced on rebound. He can score in MANY ways. Not too many guys can do that at the level he does. He gets under the opponents' skin (see 2023 series vs. NYR - he was a complete MENACE despite lack of points production) This team needs some more guys like Timo Meier. Please see below for my favorite Devils goal of the 2023-2024 campaign, scored by none other than Timo: czcams.com/video/smorRE99nnM/video.html This is beautiful in so many ways. There aren't many guys in the league that can pull off a sequence like that. Timo Meier is a complete BULL. BIG BOY HOCKEY. You need guys like this in your lineup to win, especially in the playoffs. I cannot wait to watch Timo in the playoffs again. (should be next season!) For those that like to say "Timo being injured is BS!" etc etc and refuse to give it merit... After this season ended, Timo Meier got arthroscopic surgery on his shoulder. He was playing injured ALL SEASON LONG. Instead of shutting it down and getting surgery during the season, he choose to play through the injury and wait until the offseason. WARRIOR! It definitely killed him to not play at the World Championships for Team Switzerland. He had to watch his countrymen (including Nico Hischier) go on a magical run to the Gold Medal Game. The Swiss ultimately fell short and lost to Czechia (at least Palat got a Gold Medal), earning a Silver Medal. In conclusion, I was thrilled when we traded for Timo, and thrilled when Fitz signed him longterm. I remain thrilled that he is here. He is going to be a BIG part of this nucleus for the next 7 years. I expect him to hoist a Cup in a Devils jersey. For all of these reasons, I cannot judge Timo Meier's worth (or any player's) on Plus Minus alone. There is far more to take into consideration beyond this metric. Power Play Production and tenacity/other intangibles MATTER and are completely ignored. I am ecstatic for 7 more years of TIMO TIME in New Jersey! If you made it this far, thanks for reading....and thank you for watching! Sincerely, ACE (President of the Timo Meier Fanclub and Defense Team)

Yeah, I noticed - you line Timo:) The power play and empty net facets of the discussion are legitimate arguments, and make sense in the larger scope of the Timo’s and even Doug Hamiltons (whose underwhelming +- has not escaped my antennas, and who was probably on the ice with goalies being pulled). In Meier’s case too, I never considered his early season injuries. I did wonder why Lindey inexplicably did not use him to his stronger wing. Thank you for the time and great discussion! P.S.

He's the perfect solution for us in net right now. He performs well, will not cost much, and we can get him for just a couple years. I don't care that he is 35...You hit the nail on the head...We have plenty of young kids in the minors...Broduer, Schmid, Poulter....they can be trained by Markstrom. We can sign him for a couple years. He has been in the league for a while now, and can show them a thing or 2. And to the naysayers, look at Bobrovsky...He is standing on his head, and had a 35 save shutout last night. Not to mention, and some incredible other saves along the way. Age is just a number.

    @ryanreist6841 Před dnem

    I don’t think anyone will disagree that Markstrom isn’t the long term answer for NJ. And is a number 10 overall pick too much for Markstrom, probably. But not addressing the issue in goal and losing two more years of our core gaining playoff experience also comes at a cost. Making the playoffs, losing in post season, making a deep run and losing its all part of the process for a team to finally win it all. Markstrom may only be a stepping stone for now but what we potentially gain in the big picture by adding him is more important in the now than what the tenth overall pick is going to do for the team now. Win now mode for NJ needs to be the mentality. Lots of 30 plus tenders have made deep runs, look at Bobrovsky, Quick, Roloson, Lundqvist, even Marty made a deep run late in his career. Improve the goaltending, add another D or two and let’s focus on being buyers at the 2025 deadline to really bolster the roster and make a run.

Many people do not realize the value of: "our core gaining playoff experience also comes at a cost. Making the playoffs, losing in post season, making a deep run and losing its all part of the process for a team to finally win it all." This is lost on so many people. You need to be able to walk before you can run. This is all part of it. We took a step forward in the 2022-2023 season by making the playoffs and winning a round. We took 2 steps backwards this season with the massive dud. We have to make playoff appearances and winning some rounds a regular occurrence. I believe we could go on a deep run or 2 with Markstrom in net. I do think we are a few additions away from having a reallllly special group here.

      Completely agree! If number 10 and Markstrom are the key pieces of a trade and there’s either salary retention or other pieces to balance the trade out, I say Fitz needs to sign on the dotted line and get it done. New coach, check. Upgrade in goal, check. If we could land a Zadorov or Tanev type addition to the blue line and another piece up front, we are deep enough to be a playoff team and can fill any needed positions at 2025 trade deadline. The next several years are going to be a lot of fun for us Devils fans.

    I would be willing to give up the tenth pick for a goalie BUT not for a 35 year old. That said I would for Ullmark but I believe he is only 30 and has a better upside. I have a feeling the Devils will end up with Gustavsson for less and then get a good blueliner or forward for the tenth pick.

    • @runninwiththedevils
      @runninwiththedevils Před dnem

      @Dirks_NUMA_Files his age doesn’t bother me. As long as we get more assets coming our way with Markstrom, I am ok with dealing the #10. Markstrom is a win now move and I like it. Ullmark is a much higher cost; both assets and $. If he isn’t what everyone hopes he is, that’s a major whiff that sets the organization back. If we end up with Gus, many will be calling for Fitz’ head. That move doesn’t qualify as “Big Game Hunting”. Also, there are so many quality guys available in Free Agency; I would only want to trade the pick for a big impact player, like Brady Tkachuk.

  • @anthonymanganaro9942

    What's up Ace! It's Anthony in Fort Lauderdale. I like your hesitation on trading the 10th pick in desperation. If we do not get a good deal on a goalie, why not go into the season with Jake? Beef up the D and add a winger or two and let's see what's available at the trade deadline. I'm down here in FLA watching The Panthers in the finals with a Columbus Blue Jacket goalie. Thoughts my brother?

    I dont think markstrom happens. If you recall in fitzs end of season interview he was very irritated about a team that he was trying to make a deal with. He said something like "in the league, based on past trades, theres a certain value on players" and that this team wanted a ridiculous return. It was obviously calgary. He seemed so annoyed by it that im surprised theyre even talking again, ha. I appreciate that hes not agreeing to be fleeced. Might have to find a hidden gem, a backup whos been very good, like you mentioned. Also, i like toffoli but it was made clear he wants some years. I dont want him with years, hes already slow as is, hah. A goalie you might have to bite the bullet on term that will not age well but whatre ya gonna do

      @1verge1 As of right now, I believe Markstrom is the favorite. The deal supposedly got nixed last year by the owner who did not want to retain salary. I think the deal goes through soon. Markstrom already waived his NMC to come here last year, as it presents him an excellent chance to win. I think the quote you may be referring to could have been about Trotz in Nashville when Fitzy was kicking the tires on Saros.

    I feel the same way about the Sens. Our goaltending was extremely bad and there needs to be fixes, but I dont want Staios to ridiculously overpay too. Im not comfortable moving pick 7 for a goalie, but one of my favorite goalies in the league (tough to say if he will waive because of Canada rumors) is John Gibson. I think his value is very low so theres a real chance a team could pick him up for cheap (possibly retention could be involved too) and he still has potential to have better numbers in front of a better Dcore (which I think our Dcore is better than the Ducks, but could be upgraded which I think we will do also).
