No reason for Gibson to have this kind of value. No player who had 3 terrible seasons in a row has gone on to fetch a premium price. That paired with his big contract and long term makes Gibson not a very valuable asset.

Hey man I agree Gibson is terribly overvalued but looks like he’s going to recieve a kings ransom

Gibson is the new Price. Ducks fans are where Habs fans were a few seasons ago, completely unable to come to terms with the reality of the situation.

if im the leafs i try to get the same deal but have 1.4 million retained. that is very very close. nice job

Leafs would need to give up a package like this imo

1st + Niemela + Robertson that would be a good conversation starter imo

.... Chiarot.

Why would Gibson have value like this?

I honestly think Niemela is an untouchable and rightfully so, but if he were to be added idk if Toronto would want to give up all three of those.

Lol... for a goalie in the bottom 5 of gsaa? A goalie that to be polite has been pedestrian at best.

if the ducks think they can bend a team over the barrel I'm all for it. But it won't be the leafs.

His perceived value is extremely high and the Leafs are extremely desperate. Name a goalie that’s better that the Leafs can get? Honestly asking what #1 goalie is available that you think you’ll get. His cost imo is a 1st + RSD prospect and a fill in goalie.

Why wouldn’t he? His perceived value is extremely high and the Leafs need a true # 1 goalie. Whether you believe he is or isn’t is irrelevant. Leafs have no real talent in the pipeline for goal and this team is desperately trying to find an answer to get out of the 1st round. Campbell isn’t the answer. DK is signing w the Avs more than likely who is left?

Gibson value is 1st + RSD prospect + replacement goalie or upper mid level prospect

Untouchable? Such a overused word for prospects. He’s probably really good but is he even a top 20 prospect? Top 30? Remember Nils was untouchable also bc he had solid numbers now he’s stuck in the pipe

Why wouldn't he? Because he has had 3 bad seasons in a row, has a big contract with lots of term that he's not living up to. He hasn't been a #1 goalie for 3 years, hasn't even been the best goalie on the Ducks in that time. His perceived value is at an all time low, ranked 24th amongst teams starters last season and that is going to drop again this year. There's absolutely no reason Gibson would have high value.

No it isn't. That is cap friendly talk. Also notorious for taking value away too soon and keeping it too long based on name. Gibson applies to the latter. Before last season maybe his name still gets a big offer. Still 2 bad seasons under his belt but due for a change of scenary. But now with 3 poor seasons in a row, an elite cap hit and being one upped by Stolarz You will have a harder time finding teams willing to throw assets. I'm not saying impossible, there are some idiot GM's out there. But this is cap friendly and we aren't idiots... ummm... right?

Top 10 actually. I don't think anyone is truly untouchable. Well maybe Amirov out of respect.

Yes thats in YOUR OPINION. He stats aren’t what they were and I agree that his stats have been bad but he’s been on a lottery team for 3 years.

19-20. 29 wins 71gp
20-21 17wins 56gp
21-22 31wins 82gp

Moving to a better team generally helps. Doubt the ducks move him for chump change but again your opinion doesn’t matter bc most GM value him more than capfriendly Gms. Pretty much why he’ll get kings ransom is the same reason why leafs will be able to move PM for a 3rd +. A Few GM will take a chance on past success

This idea that its the teams fault doesn't stand up to scrutiny.

Stolarz started 23 games for the Ducks last season. They were 12-8-3 with him in net. A 0.587 point %. Gibson started 56. The team went 18-26-11. A 0.420 points %. The team actively does better, much better, when Gibson isn't in net. It's not that the team in front of Gibson is bad, it's Gibson contributing to how bad the team is. We could go into basic stats, fancy stats, etc. It doesn't matter where you go, the result is the same.

Also pretty funny that you are trying to speak on behalf of NHL GMs now. What is this based off of? We know that when the Ducks made Gibson available at the deadline, GMs didn't view him as highly as you seem to think they do.

Buddy I agree but GM are ***** Dumb AF

Risto got 13th overalla second round 2023 And Hagg who might be better.

Ben Chariot got Smilanic 1st and a 4th

Kappy got 15oa pick and Hallander

Leafs then trade Hallander + 7th for McCann who the. Was selected lol.

Few examples of dumb GMs

Miller was made available also does that mean he sucks or maybe they didn’t get exactly what they wanted. Deadline is were contenders try to add maybe the cap didn’t work? Many factors. It’s not rocket science that GMs value Gibson lol. I bet there’s going to be at least 5 teams in on Gibson after the season ends. Obviously he effects the team and how well / bad they do but I was showing you that the teams he’s been on haven’t been great.

DK 2.56gp .907s% before Avs traded for him. He also had no term at all. 1st -+ Timmons and a conditional 3rd

Gibson 3.19gga .904sv% and has never had a season under .900.

DK got a 1st + RD prospect. Why wouldn’t Gibson get a similar return? DK had a better last 2 season prior to the year he got traded but his stats drastically improved moving to a new team
