Building A Cup Winner

I can’t see why San Jose would entertain that offer. Some quality in the trade would help instead of nothing basically coming back.

You’re losing him as a UFA. You get our best goaltending prospect as part of that deal.

Sharks will probably get a better offer for him at the deadline

So? Sharks already have like 10 goalies in their system, he isn’t needed. They can simply trade Reimer elsewhere before the deadline; there are 30 other teams in the league. You’re basically getting a starter caliber goaltender, and arguably would be the oilers best goaltender, at a million bucks for scraps.

We have 10 goaltenders in the system, Mann, Makiniemi, Chrona and Gaudreau are all better than Fanti. This trade is an easy pass.
