If the trade would have gone ahead, NJ would have been banking on the pick being in the 20s. Now that the final standings are becoming more clear, I would say that the value of the NJ pick has increased significantly. Additionally, Markstrom's value has decreased slightly because the Devil's are getting less games from Markstrom, and there may be other desirable alternatives.
