For those Buffalo posters not wanting to give up Jokiharju, you have to give to get. Buffalo has ZERO goaltending. It's not like Ulmark is some unbelievable stud, and UPL isn't ready. You may have also glossed over the fact that I said right in the Team Explanation that if Buffalo wouldn't move Jokiharju or didn't want Murray, you move on to the other 5-8 teams that need goaltending.
The fact is, Buffalo needs goaltending, and a 2-time cup winning goalie isn't going to go for peanuts. Pittsburgh's biggest need for next season is bottom pair defensemen. I wouldn't mind getting Jake McCabe from Buffalo for Murray, but there would have to be more coming from Buffalo, like a high pick or high prospect.
For those Penguins fans who would rather see Jarry go over Murray...it's strictly a cost issue at this point. If the Penguins want to keep Murray at what it will cost to keep him, they are going to have to trade away others the team needs to keep. Hornqvist would likely be 1st they would need to move to afford Murray.
I'd also respond that, Jarry's trade value may be at it's highest, but, I think you may be overvaluing what he could get in return. A 2nd or 3rd round pick, or maybe a B-level prospect is about all you get for Jarry, and even that may be high. He had a good season last year, but he had his rough spots, and he's still never played an NHL playoff game.
