Vladar

Just what the Kings need...a 4th backup goaltender.

If the Kings do trade for Vladar for some dumb reason, then Calgary will need to take either Talbot or Rittich back.

NYR pass. They don’t need to waste a pick or cap for Copley who’s numbers aren’t even that much better than Quick’s last few years

They would just call up Domingues from the AHL

Vladar actually had worse number than all of Copley, Talbot, and Rittich last season AND is more expensive. Not sure why LA would pay for Calgary to have a stronger tandem with Wolf.

He also faced strictly less shots per game because Calgary rarely let a low quality shots get to the net. Im not saying he's a better option but at this point its about finding anything that works

Similar story with Copley, I actually think Talbot is going to be fine. His goals allowed against the Avs weren't exactly soft (well maybe one), but the majority looked like he will serve as a .900ish goaltender. The Kings will need an answer by the trade deadline, but options like Vladar seem like lateral moves.
