Mercer+Vanacek+25 2nd (becomes 25 1st if Devils win the cup in 24 or 25)
For Markstrom $2M retained
Not sure why Calgary would retain 2 million, only to bring in an inferior goaltender...seems to me that new jersey makes out like bandits...they are just giving up their useless spare parts for a starting goaltender...any deal with new jersey has to include their first round pick in 2024, or it does not make sense for Calgary, if Nemec or Hughes are off limits, then new jersey has to pony up on a mid range 1st round pick, especially if tanev is included in the deal
