Yes, certainly. I have never directly argued the fairness or trade value of this or any Jaric-to-NJ deal. The point is, he would be a deadweight contract on our roster. He would never, ever get to run the offense for Frank, and Marko has proven over his career that he needs legit ball-hanlding duties in order to be anywhere near worth his contract.
Getting a trio of wannabe Maxiells isn't exactly setting the New Jersey world on fire. But it is WAY more than adequate sweetener for a team to absorb Jaric, one that needs him, that is. NEW JERSEY IS JUST NOT THAT TEAM!.
Jaric is not a deadweight contract, he's has relatively good value for his performance and can always be dealt 3 years from now.
But yes, exactly. And Jaric has never shown that he's worth his contract.
