VAN's 2 Year Rebuild + NJD's Cup Contention Years begin!

NJD signs JT Miller long-term for $8.5-9mil/yr + VAN receives 4 Top Prospects for the Price of 1 and contend for the Connor Bedard Lottery Sweepstakes banking on a quick turn around to success again when their current mid-20's forwards are still in their Peak Playing Years

NJ overpays in both trades.

So what would you change or if you combined the 2 what would take out!? Typically a Star Player on an expiring contract gets a 1st + a Decent Prospect

Tatar would be the best player for NJD to send the other way but should VAN be sending a Pick or Prospect and if so what/ who!?

Could take out Bahl in the 2nd Trade but $$$ needs to go the other way so Wood & Severson (maybe Marino instead) make the most sense. I’d hold on to Graves unless he + Zetterlund were to be Traded to CGY for Hanifin

NJD are just a few pieces away from being a scary good team. Not sure if having all 3 brothers together is the best idea but it’s fun to imagine and they’re all very good.

"NJD signs JT Miller long-term for $8.5-9mil/ yr"

I probably should have wrote it as a "Sign & Trade"

The Price for JT Miller will have to be high as he just had a 1.24PPG = Top-10 Scorer and VAN could simply choose to re-sign him, since it doesn't sound like Miller wants to be moved, so it'd have to be an offer VAN can't refuse, especially on a Sign & Trade Deal

The Price for Quinn Hughes will have to be substantial as well, like the equivalent of at t=least THREE if not FOUR 1st Round Picks. He has to be considered one of the 7 Most Valuable D-Men in the League.
