The Erik Karlsson sweepstakes is in full swing, with rumors swirling saying his agent is allowed to talk to other teams. That means every single team that could conceivably fit him in their salary cap will make a call to the Ottawa Senators. One of those teams is definitely the New Jersey Devils.
A trade for Karlsson would cost an arm and a leg no matter who is making the trade. One place where the Devils have an advantage is they can afford to take on Bobby Ryan‘s contract and still have room for the future.
