New Jersey Devils: Are You Willing To Accept Price For Mitch Marner?
Friday night, the New Jersey Devils have the privilege of selecting the first-overall pick in the draft. They have nine other selections in the draft, four of which were acquired from other teams.
One of the very few rewards of being a team that finished in the bottom of the standings is that you have the opportunity to select a player near the top of the draft rankings. The first-overall selection is the Devils’ own 1st-round pick. With Toronto Maple Leafs forward Mitch Marner a restricted free agent this offseason, he is going to command a high salary. With being an RFA, it comes at not only a cap hit cost, but a cost of future assets as well. Would you be willing to pay the price?
