You didn't answer my question; I asked when Mercer last played center in the NHL constantly . The hostility is insane.

Also I enjoy the "NJD are idiots for trading young potential C on a down year away for a veteran to win now" and also "NJD are idiots for NOT trading young potential C on a down year (this one is much younger and better) for a veteran to win now"

Nah, NJ is idiotic for whiffing on getting a goalie.

I did answer it. I said I didn’t know. Go back and read it again if you like.

Oh no NJD missed out on markstrom who, checks notes, has been at 0.878 since the rumoured trade was supposed to occur and is now apparently injured.

The Devils missed out on every goalie who could have improved their team down the stretch this year. Instead they wasted assets on Allen.
‘Oh no’ indeed.

My name isn't Tyler. The goalie moves we made cost us nothing.
We paid a 3rd and a 7th to save 1.5 mill on next years cap and 2 goalies to try out.

That was the expected cost to dump Vitek. In fact I believe on here the general consensus was you'd want an additonal 2nd to take on Vitek

Pissing away mittfuls of picks on crappy goalies while the contention window shrinks.
Sounds fun

To dump a 28 year old goalie? Can 28 year old goalies not become elite in their position?

To dump a goalie with the worst numbers in hockey yes.
Weird how the perception on here went from Vitek being a cap dump and the reason NJD can't win to somehow fitzy is dumb for trading him the second he got traded.

I wonder if any NHL teams take a look at signing Nikolay Goldobin. 78 points in 67 KHL games, still only 27 years old. He had half a point per game in the NHL when he was 22 years old. It looks like he has since improved quite a bit.

Easy my simple friend, Vitek is just as elite as Mercer is at centre (he’s a winger) and as elite as Holtz’s 14 goals a year shot lol.

Allowed us to preserve the waivers exemptions on the 2 young guys, and while both have only played 1 game, they've each looked great.
