The New Jersey Devils landed their big fish ahead of the 2023 NHL trade deadline by getting Timo Meier from the San Jose Sharks in a trade packed with picks and prospects. It took several hours for the smoke to clear, but the deal is now done.
Specifics of Meier trade from Sharks to Devils
Meier is the headliner but this deal has plenty of other parts to it. Time will tell if the trade package actually helps the Sharks, or instead translates to quantity over quality.
Devils receive: Timo Meier (with 50 percent of his salary retained by the Sharks), prospect Timur Ibragimov, defensemen Scott Harrington and Santeri Hatakka, goaltender Zachary Emond and a fifth-round pick in the 2024 NHL Draft.
