[Rumour] Dreger: Markstrom trade won't happen unless NJ includes Mercer and higher draft pick

[Enoch Root]

I am still waiting for dgibb10 to respond to this, after telling us last night that Jersey was pivoting to Ullmark

[Dude Where's Makar?]

Devils have more capspace and draft capital now....

[Enoch Root]

I always wonder what trolls think they are accomplishing... they spend a ton of time and energy, posting nonsense, and looking like a complete idiot - do they think they're having an impact on anything? Do they think they're fooling anyone?

It baffles me why they would bother.

He posted here but was also one of those 'i'm smarter than you' analytics guys on twitter back in the day when counting shot attempts was considered advanced stats.

I love both sides just constantly leaking their bargaining position.

Still think this can be done,

Markstrom (no retention) for Holtz and Mtl 3rd pick
Markstrom (50% retention) for Holtz, 2024 devils first, Mtl 3rd.

If Conroy was willing to accept garbage as a return, then yes, it could get done. But why would he do that? That is a terrible return.

I'm sure NJ will accept that. But I think Calgary won't.

With New Jersey dithering I half expect Markstrom to end up with the Leafs or Kings by the end of the trade deadline…something like 1st, A-prospect, B-prospect and cap dump

I remember his "Hard minutes" vs. "soft minutes" statistical analysis LOL

I believe he was the one who also used "stats" to show Ty Conklin was a premiere starter and top goalie in the NHL.

Well you play the game of Markstrom falling off a cliff after TDL with no defence does that sewer his value going into the offseason? Do you risk waiting until the draft and see if you can a team to overpay.

If you can get Holtz all the picks they just got from Winnipeg and their own first pick, I think you pull the trigger and move on.

Yet we have to endure your crying about the echo chamber crying.

I have said repeatedly that Markstrom won't move unless a team overpays, that is not it.

Thats right....earlier i posted Tommy Salo....but it was Conklin.

He in fact made the claim that he was better than Martin Brodeur at the time.

Head shakingly stupid stuff.

I am in the 'his value will be lower in the summer' camp, but not that low - no way I take that return, better to wait until summer

Great, then we will keep him until the agreement is expires. Nobody will trade for him next year when his stats falls badly because of the team in front of him.

I have a feeling Fitz will be looking for work soon.
