That trade is god-awful for Ottawa.

Elliotte did not say this trade will happen he said Ottawa is looking for a goalie and Gibson is the first name that came to mind. i.e. that means nothing.

DeBrincat is worth a hell of a lot more than Gibson.

Per Elliot

I see no lies in that statement.

But for real I'm bored watching Joseph make all that money to score 3 goals and contribute nothing, I like Cat but our immediate need is goaltending. No way that Gibson is worse than Talbot or Madds. This gives more stability than running Forsy/Madds. I like Madds but man was down bad being thrown into it. Threw in Frank because this team desperately needs a better bottom 6 and someone that can keep up with Pinto.

I wouldn't acquire a goalie who will make $25.6 million against the cap for the next four years just because "well, he can't be worse than Talbot."

Forsberg is better than Gibson imo and a lot cheaper, just roll with him.

And if we trade Joseph we can probably afford Casey DeSmith who is currently better than Talbot, Gibson, and Sogaard.
