Indeed, I already feel better about this team. Cotter and Covacevic aren't names anyone was thinking about and could turn out to be gems ... I would argue that is really the best way for a GM to earn a good reputation. If it actually works, of course. Plus as you said, these two guys do fit the bottom-six forward and bottom-four defenseman spots. With cap space we may be able to get the top-6 and top-4 guys as well. We'll still have to wait and see for tomorrow and the season itself, but these feel like very positive moves.

Perhaps the Devils will sign Kevin Labanc, Brett Pesce, and Jersey boy James van Riemsdyk, so James, Kevin, and Jack Hughes will form one the best line combinations dubbed “the U.S.A. Line” and Brett will pair with Luke Hughes on defense.

By the way, I argued in the past against Stamkos and now ... I'm really not sure why I did. My bad. I hope we can get him. I don't think it's impossible either. We have big potential and we have Palat, so there's that connection from the Cup-winning teams. I would argue that we still need that top-4 D-man, like a Pesce. I wouldn't count on Kovacevic to step into that kind of responsibility just yet. And I want Dillon or Zadorov too. The more hard-to-play-against defensemen, the better.

The forward lines don’t gel with me. Do they go Nico timo and Bratt as 1 line? Who’s playing with Jack? Haula,Mercer/Palat that sounds awful. Fourth line is Lazar Bastian Cotter ? You can’t scratch Cotter cuz you just traded Holtz for him so you’re invested now. Does that mean Foote is back to Utica to rot?

FWIW, Kovacevic is a far worse defender than Bahl. And Bahl wasn't that bad honestly. Kovacevic also hits less than Bahl did, blocks fewer shots, and is worse of a possession player, and Bahl wasn't that good in that last department to begin with. And since Kovacevic is a righty, while Bahl was a lefty, I guess the plan is to play Dougie at RD1, Nemec at RD2, and Kovacevic as RD3. Meanwhile the left side will probably look like Siegenthaler at LD1(although I hate him there), Luke Hughes at LD2, and someone else, maybe Brendan Dillon at LD3, although I'd prefer Dillon and Siegenthaler switched. If Fitz gets Pesce or Zadorov though, Brett will almost certainly take the LD1 spot, Luke as the LD2, and preferably Siegs as the RD3. I could accept either of those though. Hopefully today is mayhem in a good way for Fitz and NJ.
