If the tenth is included it would have to be for a good amount more than just Markstrom, but I'm not sure what else Calgary has that NJ would want. I'm sure they wouldn't want to take back Palat's contract in their current situation.
I was for the Toffoli trade and I still don't criticize it. If Devils make the playoffs it's a non-story, but they didn't and you can't blame Toffoli for that. He did what he was expected to. I kind of always wished Shara got more of top 6 and PP opportunity in NJ and you got to see what he was capable of in Calgary when he got that chance. He sort of became an afterthought once the Meier trade was made. It kind of stinks now that we don't have Shara or Toffoli now. Feels a bit like we wasted hitting on a 5th round pick and don't have anything to show for it anymore. But it's not a simple is that and hindsight is 20/20..
Would y’all trade 10 overall for Markstrom and Andrew Mangiapane both 50% retained? Maybe a little rich but I’ve always liked Mangiapane, curious what others think.
GREAT DEAL for NJ.
Bahl and next years first for Markstrom. With only a decent season, that's at best the 15-20 overall in a not as deep draft.
Top 10 protected, 31.25% salary retained by Calgary. It just keeps getting better.

I have a feeling a 1st round pick would be involved. I can't say for sure it's for the 10th overall.

What about the draft compensation from the Toffoli trade.
