He could be with NJD for another 8+ years. Do you think NJD overpaid for Gusev? You keep mentioning gusev even though I don’t care about him Who gives a crap what I would have paid in a trade for gusev? We’re a rebuilding team going nowhere for at least a few years ... have you seen our d ? Devils are ahead of us so good on them for adding him , they’ve also added pk,hughes,simmonds,vatanen ... we added kaski and Nemeth again I don’t care about gusev , I’m gusev’d out Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Yes we're rebuilding, but that shouldn't matter. The Devils bought low on a premium asset. Even if it doesn't work out for Gusev in New Jersey, I'll bet that trade works out for the Devils. Worst case scenario, he doesn't live up to expectations, and is a decent middle six winger. They trade him at next year's trade deadline for what they gave up to acquire him. Best case scenario, he exceeds expectations, and is a top line scoring winger that they can either extend long term, or trade for a much higher return than they gave up to acquire him. This was a great trade for New Jersey and would have been a great trade for any team, whether they were a Cup contender or rebuilding team. That's it. I'm done... 1 ChristopherReevesLegs reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Neomaxizoomdweebie 3,083 Report post Posted September 23, 2019 Gusev was, at the very least, what u hope ur getting with a 2nd round pick. If I have to choose between Gusev and a kid who, statistically speaking, will never be as good as Gusev already is, then I would make the trade. The likelihood ur getting a kid who turns out to be better than Gusev with that pick is much lower. 1 krsmith17 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Me personally, I'm not. I believe we can and must do better. Not just for ourselves, but for our children, and for our children's children. I wanted to learn bag pipes this summer so I could play them in an upcoming wedding. But quality pipes are like hundreds of dollars. I was shocked that essentially a picnic blanket with recorders stick out of it was so much. Oh well I guess. 1 Dabura reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

He probably has at the very least 8 years of hockey in front of him, and his translation factor puts him at about 50 to 60 pts on the season. A 1st line winger. Those usually go for more than a 2nd a 3rd. Next your gonna say Wayne Simmonds is a top 6 forward Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
