Great point about Markstrom wanting to join the Devils. My guess is Ullmark, and maybe Saros too, would’ve had mixed feelings about a trade to the Devils and would be bummed to be leaving where they were.
Darren Dreger said on TSN Overdrive yesterday that the Devils were very, very close to acquiring Ullmark the night before the Markstrom trade. So I think he would’ve waived for NJ
Alex - in your opinion is Holtz a greater or lesser trade chip than the 2025/26 1st round pick traded?
That’s a good question. I’d say less because he feels like the type of player a lot of NHL GMs would sour on quickly
