The condition on the trade actually highlights NJs mindset on this, and how it relates to people saying Marky is off the table.
They realize this is a plan B hail Mary. The condition is basically, we'll pay you a 2nd if he becomes our long term solution, if he ends up being just our throw spaghetti on the wall attempt to make the playoffs this year, we'll pay you a 3rd for that.
NJ has hedged the price on this move, knowing they may need to dip back into the goalie market later to solve their problem.
