According to journalist Tomas Prokop, serious discussions are indeed underway between Nemec and the New Jersey Devils’ management about possibly allowing him to be traded.
Or at the very least, to give him a fresh start.
Ongoing talks between Simon Nemec and New Jersey Devils management about a potential trade
This will definitely be a situation to monitor for Slafkovsky’s best friend.
“There’s ongoing dialogue between Simon Nemec’s representatives and the Devils’ front office regarding his role and future with the team.
Word is the 21-year-old doesn’t feel much trust and confidence from Sheldon Keefe, always being the first D-man the coach scratches or cuts his ice time.”
– Tomas Prokop
It really feels like the end for Nemec in New Jersey.
This season, he recorded 23 points in 34 games in the AHL, along with four points in 27 NHL games.
Personally, I don’t believe he would be an appealing target for Kent Hughes and the Montreal Canadiens, despite his clear connection to Slaf, unless the asking price is low.
