There is going to be multiple good teams with disastrous goaltending in the playoffs and the pressure will be on. Vezina caliber goalie for 2 years at 3M will get a massive return.

I worry that the Devils will be Meiered in Medicority unless they get a goalie. Part of their problem is that they burned a lot of assets for a middling player like Meier. At least Meier has more points than Zetterlund (34 compared to 30). One more move like that and Fitzgerald probably has them locked and loaded for another 5-10 years of rebuilding.
The only foresight that Fitzgerald had was making that first this year contingent on making the Conference Finals either last year or this year. That was never going to happen so it is only a second.
So the trade ends up being
Meier (34 points this year)
A bunch of scrubs including Hatakka
For
Zetterlund (30 points this year)
A former first round pick
A 2023 first round pick
A 2024 2nd round pick
A 2024 7th round pick
Some scrubs including the Flames current player Okhotyuk.
