Meier is another guy that went to a new team and has just looked terrible, like even worse than Huberdeau has looked.

In another "trade idea that NHL GMs would never actually make" post but:

Huberdeau: $10.5M
Markstrom: $3.0M ($6.0M w/50% retention)

Total: $13.5M

For

Meier: $8.8M
Palat: $4.5M ($6.0M w/25% retention)

Total: $13.3M

I actually have no doubt that Huberdeau would fit in more with the speedy centers and rush based offense that Hughes, Hischier, and Mercer provide
Meier has only played 42 games with NJ, and does have 25 points, or a pace of 27-22-49. He’s battled some injuries.

Like Huberdeau, he’s scoreless in December.

He also would fit in better with NJ’s centres, so not sure why he would approve a trade. Maybe if he continues to struggle for another year?

Likely depends on if NJ values Marky.
