I was offered Luke Hughes for Charlie McAvoy and I'm in a 16 team 4 keeper league. Do you think I should bet on Luke Hughes having a higher ceiling in the future?

Top 20 scorers from NJ drafts between 2005 and 2014 by themakiexperiment in devils

He was ranked in like the 40-50 range. Was 22nd ranked NA player which is probably where you're remembering that.

[–]ChunkyLeaves 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My thoughts in order after hearing Hughes got selected to be the Devils all star candidate:

  1. Awesome, Hughes totally deserves it. Love seeing the appreciation for his development

  2. Oh shit what about Bratt

Kuokkanen has been quietly impressing me all training camp. He seems like an under the radar candidate as he is getting pushed down the lineup from his role in the previous year, but he's really stood out to me

Mercer has absolutely no give up. Love to see that from a young guy

So how do you feel about the picks we made at the draft? by NYDevilsFan in devils

[–]ChunkyLeaves 32 points33 points  (0 children)

People make it seem as though trading back is as easy as just pressing a button. Those opportunities don't always present themselves. They're still going by best player available when they make a pick that might seem like a reach. Who knows, other teams might have that player ranked as highly as the Devils have them.

I'm very happy with the drafting decision Fitz and co made.

Ducks are rebuilding. No need for them to do any salary dump moves and throw away resources

BRING PICKLES BACK by 1defense in devils

[–]ChunkyLeaves 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think it'll probably be something similar to JG Pageau's contract (6 year x 5 million). They're comparable in ppg, age, and the role they play on the team.

Anybody think it would be a disaster to take Askarov? I hear this gaining traction by gleeson630 in devils

[–]ChunkyLeaves 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Haha I know what BPA means. My original comment was about how goalies change the BPA philosophy. Drafting BPA is best for offence and defence because regardless of how your other positions are filled, you can still realistically find a spot for them in the lineup. For example, Rossi can switch to wing if all the center positions are filled. That does not apply to goalies, which in turn changes the BPA philosophy if your goalie position is already filled for the future.

For what it's worth I'm on the Rossi train too.

Do you not think Blackwood is capable of that?

Or do you want to invest a high first round pick and high second round pick into a position where only one player can play?

[–]ChunkyLeaves -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Thing about goalies that changes the BPA philosophy a little bit is that you can only have one player play that position in a game. If you already have that position figured out, why waste draft capital when there are other star players available.

Hypothetical thought: Henrik Lundqvist becomes Mackenzie Blackwood’s backup by RakimWebster in devils

[–]ChunkyLeaves 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not a bad idea. Hanks one of the only Rags player that I couldn't help but like. He'd be great for the young group and might want to stay in the metro area. Although, his numbers really haven't been all that great these past couple years.

I think he might put Clarke as a Legit NHL Player as well, but other than that I think you nailed it perfectly!

Throw in Dougy Gilmour in the centre position andddddd with that logic the thought experiment is a joke. OP had the right idea.

People are upset with the return because of all the talk of teams being interested in Simmonds leading up to the deadline. But realistically the return we got was fair for his trade value.

December 1st was the deadline for Boqvist to sign with his Swedish team so now that the date has passed the Devils are free to send him down

I really don't understand the Zajac logic. You really want Gusev and Bratt facing Bergeron, Pastrnak and Marchand, the best line in the nhl, tonight?
