NJHN Daily: Devils Timo Meier Speaks; Proposed Rangers-Islanders Trade; Blackwood, Vezina?

Could you imagine after the roller coaster ride Mackenzie Blackwood took the New Jersey Devils on, that he’d figure it out elsewhere and potentially play his way to the Vezina Trophy conversation? As my Colorado colleague, Aarif Deen, explained, it’s too early to be talking about this. But…! More on this in the links below.
Elsewhere, Patrick Roy calls out his team, what’s next in Fabian Zetterlund’s development? And, Pittsburgh waives a former first-round draft pick.
Sidebar. Here was an interesting proposition by The Athletic’s New York hockey reporter, Arthur Staple. For the struggling New York Rangers and New York Islanders, a rare NHL trade between the rivals, swapping Mika Zibanajad for Pierre Engvall.
Hear me out:
