Meier's NTC doesn't kick in until next season though...so Devils may be motivated to act quickly.
I don't think it would work 1 for 1 but I think something like this could (although NHL GMs would never take a risk like doing this).

Oh man, I'd easily trade Huberdeau's contract for Timo Meier with significant retention plus a sweetener. Feel like Meier's struggles are probably more due to injury then anything as he started the season off well, but hasn't done anything since coming back. Wonder if he's still feeling the effects of the injury.
