Scouts Flocking to Devils Games, Is the Trade Buzz Getting Louder?

23

The NY Post's Mark Everson has an article in today's issue about the number of scouts attending Devils games and the possible moves it may mean coming. Usually all this talk really amounts to nothing, but the fact is that the team does has a surplus of talent, and not enough roster spots once some of their injured players start returning to the line-up With the rookies, veterans, role players and free-agent signings all bringing their A games to the quarter mark the team is in a great position to deal and plug certain holes that may really become problems come the Playoffs. I'm curious who you all think on the current roster may be trade bait. Do you all still feel the team needs a center AND defensive help? I honestly think our D has been beyond solid all season and that's without Oduya and Martin. I do still think the team needs a real playmaking center somewhere in the line-up. Faceoffs have been an issue most of the season that the team thankfully has been able to overcome. Passing is also another issue for me, besides Elias the team has no real gifted passers and i see them night after night throw out way too many poor passes on the attack, particularly during scoring chances.
