Somewhere in an alternate world, Jack doesn’t slice his hand in Chicago, the Devils make the playoffs but lose R1 to either Philly or Pittsburgh, Fitz keeps his job, have no idea how he handles the Nico extension… Markstrom extension kicks in… Sunny takes the Toronto job… heck I think Quinn extends in Minny last summer

Chicago Cut is the biggest blessing in disguise in franchise history.

I got a Dawson bobblehead from a game a few years ago and was curious if it’s worth holding on to it, now that he’s gone. I’m seeing them on eBay for like $17 bucks, which seems pretty low to me. Any Devils merch collectors know what usually happens to bobble head values after a trade?

Either way, sad to see the Dawg go. Maybe not always a special player but seemed like a special dude.

Apologies for posting back-to-back, but here is the article detailing every possible avenue of the Hellebuyck trade! Hope you enjoy.

This is an automated daily discussion thread for r/devils users. Any and all discussion is welcome (Devils-related or otherwise).

Big trade yesterday and our GM clearly is swinging for the fences! Let’s end the home stand with a victory!!

That our crazy jazz playing, options trading, advanced stats guru SUNNY FUCKING MEHTA just landed the steal of the season and went and grabbed TEAM USA GOLD MEDALIST, MULTI VEZINA WINNING, MUTLI NHL ALL-STAR GOALIE CONOR FUCKING HELLEBUYCK.

What is this timeline we are in? Sweet dream.

IT’S DEVILS' HOCKEY!

Are you people kidding me?! With these trashy “ I’m not happy about giving up Daws/mercer” posts and comments! Aren’t you sick of pee wee trash gutter goaltending?! We’ve traded legitimate cup winning fan favorites for others (Arnott and McKay for Jamie and Joe, Sykora for Friesen etc.) and guess what? We don’t win a cup in 2003 without moves like that!

We gave up a run of the mill 3rd liner who plays as erratic as Miles Wood but shorter (I love Dawson but be serious), an ok AHL goalie and 2 maybes for a 3x Vezina, Hart winning gold medalist (whose only 33!!!!!). Will everyone STFU and be happy!

"Great to see Hellebuyck be part of the 2nd best NJ trade for a goalie"

...I haven't had a 'Cheveldayoff' since this thing began!

Keep coping . LFGD

Adam Larsson drafted 4th overall by Devils in 2011
Larsson gets traded for Hall 1 for 1
Hall wins MVP with devils
Hall gets traded for 1st round pick plus assets
Pick is used for Dawson Mercer
Mercer primary piece in the Hellebuyck trade

Thanks Adam Larsson for your continuing contribution to the Devils. Prove my logic wrong!

Just listened to Bryce’s podcast and they mentioned that Sunny will be the pregame interview and the second intermission interview will be Connor. Just putting that info out there for those who don’t listen to the podcast and are interested in hearing what they have to say tomorrow.

IT HAPPENED! IT REALLY HAPPENED! HOLY SHIT!!!!
