Line 1 Tatar Nico Mercer ( 2nd best line in 2022-2023) Line 2 Timo Hughes Bratt We don’t need another top 6 guy we got to save some money for Luke and Nemec for the future and we can always get someone at the deadline if needed
It came out that Stamkos and marchessault spoke to each other before signing with the Preds and agreed to both sign. Devils didn’t have a chance on either.
The same guys complaining about fitz not overpaying to get marchessaut and stamkos are the same that endlessly complain about palats contract. Holding firm to what you can offer ufas to not make keeping longer term pieces is good work not a fumble
Nope. Not nearly enough. This notion that Fitz is killing it is laughable. He signed a couple slightly above average defensemen. Top 15 goalie. Bunch of bottom 6 forwards. Not a star in the bunch. This is big game hunting? I'm not excited about any of it. People are celebrating the return of 9 goals in 70 games Tatar. Fitz gave him a raise! After the abysmal season he had.
He improved goaltending, defense & added better bottom 6. I agree there is a need for a top 6 forward but can’t force moves if they aren’t there. We have to see how things unfold. Make the trade when it’s available. More so if we are a team that needs a forward at the deadline then he absolutely needs to get one
Totally agree. This offseason is a disaster. Over the hill washed up goalies, potato-can nobody forwards ( NJ overpaid for) and a bunch of veteran stiffs for defenseman. Just a disaster. Fitz gave away the two best forward prospects in the entire system for nobody AHLer and a garbage man goon 4th liner. Fitz should have been fired year ago.
You guys are saying all of this but the bottom line is Stanley Cup Finals teams are not engineered fully in the offseason. Would it have been great to get a top 6 winger? Sure. Does the team look much better in the big picture of the entire team now vs. last season. No debating that.
MSG sucks. Getting rid of Erika was small minded and short sighted.
Line 1 Tatar Nico Mercer ( 2nd best line in 2022-2023)
Line 2 Timo Hughes Bratt

Say no to drugs kid.
Tuna blows and is NOT a legitimate top 6 forward let alone a first liner.

Because Fitz SUCKS thats why....
@@yoholmes273 Keep that energy when the season starts.
A last-minute conversation. Trotz swiped Marchessault from right under Fitzy's nose. Never saw it coming. Then signed Tatar. Meh. Our loser GM.
No forwards of significance added. I’m surprised he didn’t bring back Jesper Boquivst. Come on, Fitz.!
I will miss Erika Wachter 😢
Agree that Fitz did a good job and the question is whether we are better than the Rangers and Hurricanes
@@morkeljakeson9438 quick answer. Nj is obviously NOT better than NYR or Carolina

For every 100 stupid devils fan, there is 1 that actually knows hockey. Well said, my friend.
A bit better but not enough. If Hischier playscwith Timo and Bratt, who does Jack play with?
Yeah, that's the question. Putting Tatar there will be wasting Hughes' year.
Does Seigs deserve to be in the top pair?
He has great chemistry with Dougie tho.
Would trade Mercer plus Seigs plus Casey or draft choices for Brady T
Sens would laugh at that offer.
Just STOP.
Brady was NEVER coming NJ
This talk is pure nonsense
It's not over... #BringBradyToNJ
It is for this season
Only total goof dork nerd fools-on-purpose actually believe Brady was ever even sniffed about coming to NJ.
Pure pipe dream.
Just stop it

🗑
Tatar STINKS and this offseason was nothing short of a DISASTER for NJ.
FiTZ should have been fired 3 seasons ago. 🔥
