Might not be exactly what Anaheim is looking for, but thoughts on a Sharangovich for Henrique @ 50% retention?
The one flaw here from a Devils perspective is Fitzgerald doesn’t seem like he wants to mess too much with the roster. That being said, Sharangovich is the one player that hasn’t really found his footing this year, although he has been solid on the PK with respectable offensive numbers. Not sure if the Devils will keep him around this year as money will get a little tight after extensions to Bratt/Meier.
The logic behind it is they are similar players. Ducks get a replacement for Henrique that fits in with the age group of their core. Devils would get a similar player to Sharangovich that is more of a proven veteran asset for the playoffs. If there’s enough retention, Henrique would be signed cheaper next year than what the Devils would likely pay Sharangovich.
