    Devils revenge era begins….

    Trouba is not just a Devils problem tho. He plays on the edge and occasionally over it, which is leaving a trail of injured players.

    I would not enjoy this whatsoever. Fitz has never acted reactionarily. Isn’t Zadorov a better target?

    The physicality would be nice but need the defensive stability above anything else.

    Twitter just won’t open up for me and errors out. What does the tweet actually say?

  5. If Colin Miller keeps playing like this, there’s nowhere to put him or Zadorov so *shrug*

    Roll the dice Fitz, Zhadorov, Tanev and Markstrom. Big trade needed to shake up this team.

    I’d be the happiest RIT alum if this happens. That said, Tanev isn’t really a physical “threat”. But he is exceptionally skilled at something the Devils style relies on: breakout passes from the defensive zone. Severson was decent enough at them, but Tanev is a tier above for sure. Not to mention incredibly responsible defensively.

    Rather have Zadorov.

    Younger, less injury prone, better physical presence, and just overall playing better this year.

    Physical rival of Trouba!? What does that even mean?

    Tanev fought Trouba only in reaction to a big hit, he just happened to be the guy around and stepped up, it was a meh fight, consensus is Tanev lost it. Dude has only one other career scrap that I’m aware of.

    He ain’t a physical rival to anyone. You make this move if he improves your defense. Not if you want to put Trouba in check. That would require someone else.
