Blues aren't trading Husso. Binnington stinks right now.

What metric are you using to gauge grabbing another teams starting goaltender costs a 2nd?

On the georgiev think him playing a bunch is the only way he is good. If he's not playing enough he is lost

If you're talking about the blues trade my description on it shows you my thoughts on the trade

you could probably get georgiev for pretty cheap this offseason, the rangers pretty much have to get rid of him

Even if Binny bounces back, you're not getting Husso before the TDL. Best to just perish the thought.

No, I mean pretty much all of your trades are a 2nd or a 2nd and something else that doesn't really wow a team. I just don't see how you would plan on going to any team and take their starting goaltender for a second? We traded Allen as the backup and got a second.

Varlamov - only has 2 years left and has a fairly large contract. He might not get a 1st in return as he isn't even the starter on his own team. Plus, the two 2nd's are close to trade value to a 1st (as seen from multiple trades).

Holtby - pure rental and shouldn't fetch more than a 2nd as he isn't a true number 1 anymore

Georgiev - pending RFA, rangers won't be able to re-sign him nor will he want to re-sign as a backup there. Similar to the talbot trade when he went from NYR to EDM

Husso - trade value he has is a huge question mark considering his small sample size and his non exsistent track record as he hasn't played in the league much prior to this year. This is what I deemed to be fair for a pending UFA who is playing amazing but doesn't have proof that he can keep up this play long term. But like I said in my description of the trade, he has more value to the Blues than what they can get back so it's pretty far out there that the trade would happen

All of these guys are backups besides Husso as well

Then your logic still makes no sense. If you are going to say they are all backups, then it does little to improve your goalie situation.
1.) Holtby isn't a true backup. He's split the starts
2.) Husso is the starter at this point.
3.) Georgiev is a backup but the point still stands. He's either playing like a backup and you still don't have a starting goaltender, or he's a starting goaltender and the rangers aren't going to take that for him
4.) Varlamov is still posting impressive save % and gaa all things considered. But it's going to still cost more than a second.

1) Oettinger is the real starter in Dallas, even though he's played only 3 more games his nubmers are significantly better plus Holtby is a pending UFA at the end of the year, there's no way he can fetch more than a 2nd and a small piece
2) I agreed that Husso was the starter which is why I explained that the trade is very out there to make
3) Georgiev is a gamble as you don't know how well he'll play in a starter role as he's under the shadow of Igor. Again, he IS NOT the starter whatsoever in New York and this is the type of return they'll get for a pending RFA and a guy that might not want to be a backup for the rest of his career considering Igor's age.
4) Varlomov is the team's backup, and yes his save% is great but that's a huge team factor, if you look at his analytics, his GSAx is average amongst all goalies. And again, I didn't trade just a second, I traded two 2nd round picks which is near the value of a 1st as we've seen from multiple trades in the past.
