Since the Devils are on the bubble I imagine they would lottery protect the first for 2024.

You could still ease Wolf along and continue giving the net to all three goalies, and maybe Vanacek rebounds with a change of scenery and you can get another asset for him (or Vladar) in the off season.
This is going to be my random guess.

Vanecek
2024 1st (Top 10 protected)
2026 2nd (Conditional pick, 2nd round if Devils make conference finals in 2024, 2025, or 2026, 3rd round pick if they don't)
McLeod (just to make dammage happy)
