It's not an offer we take, either. Vegas burned the bridge to Verbeek with the Dadanov debacle, and we're not sending our franchise goaltender to a division rival.

You keep hearing rumors because pundits keep running their mouth or their word processor, no one from the inside is saying he's going to move.

I think you are on the right track with Lehner to Carolina, but coming off a missed season I think your valuation is high.

Just resign Quick for a Quick-Thompson combo

Pass on Lehner. Hurt a lot, cost too much, his numbers haven’t been worth his AAV.

Vegas will have to pay to move his deal if he is healthy due to the risk of the 2nd year.

Vegas would be lucky to get a 7th round pick for Lehner at this point. No way in hell are the Canes moving a 2nd round pick for a goalie who is questionable to even continue his playing career. Especially since he has to be dumped to bring in Gibson in this case. Best case scenario is Vegas gets FC like Patches, but considering that he has 2 years left at 5mil per, Vegas might want to ready a 1st or 2nd round pick.

Lehners career could likely be over, You're not getting no 2nd round pick for him.

And Verbeek isn't trading Gibson, And Gibson has pretty much said he's not waiving either.

Pat Verbeek has already said that he's not trading John Gibson but even if that's typical GM smoke, it's highly doubtful that he would trade our starting goaltender for the next four seasons to a divisional rival.

There is no way we would give up a second round pick for a guy who is likely to never play again
