Haha 3 prospects and a young fringe NHLer and a 2nd for a vet UFA goalie?

I don’t hate the idea of holtby, but that’s a pretty ridiculous return for a rental. I get none of those prospects are elite by any means, but moving out that many prospects in one deal seems excessive.

Again I like Holtby, but this team needs a fix in goalie. Not a band-aid for 10 games until he walks in free agency

It's the classic 5-for-1 trade deal.

Look, once Holtby sits down to have a long conversation publically with the media… he’ll sign a multi year deal on the cheap.
