Jarry is simply too expensive for the Kings. We're looking to spend that amount of cap on BOTH goalies.

I don't think PIT has the assets to acquire Saros. That certainly isn't it. Maybe if you replaced the 2nds with 1sts.

Kings better keep their 2nd rounder, save a lot of cap space and sign Nedeljkovic for half of what Jarry is getting for 4 more years.

I wonder what the Predators Fans think about the trade for Saros. Heard they want multiple first rounders + a top six winger.

A multi-year camp dump, and a sprinkling of marginal futures? That's not getting you Saros.

Yeah, Jarry has not played well enough at his cap hit to justify much value going back. The Kings have got better goaltending collectively from Talbot and Rittich for a fraction of what Jarry costs.

I think Trotz' ask is ridiculous but this offer isnt it.

Rakell's contract doesnt move the needle for Nashville. He isnt good enough to be desirable as an immediate must have upgrade to push aside prospects like Evangelista and the contract just goes on for years....

Nieto is waiver fodder

So it is basically Pickering and a couple 2nds. Im just not high enough on Pickering to see this as a good deal. Plus LHD isnt really the place we need more prospects at.

Overall whether or not the value is there doesnt matter if the pieces arent right.

TOR isn’t doing that, even with 50% retention and a mid round pick coming back I don’t see a real reason to take acciari

Ned isn't a starting goalie, I don't know where people get this idea from.
DET tried that it didn't work out. It wasn't because the rest of the team was "bad." His play was legit bad.
Most people realize he's not a starter which is why that hasn't happened again even though a lot of teams needed goalies.
He's good in small doses though. But you can't rely on him to carry 50+ games.

You can make all the fancy forward trades you want.
If you don't fix the 3rd pairing this team is going nowhere fast.
This team gave up like 14 points with blown leads etc...
14.
They are out of the playoff hunt by 1point if they win tonight.
It wasn't that they "lost" games, it was the really bad blown leads of games they should have won. Dropping multiple goal leads with less than a period left.

While a 5th is nothing, we can’t take that 5 million

Barry Trotz wants the equivalent of 2 1st round picks for Juuse Saros with an extension in place, That offer isn't even close.

Avs can't afford Jarry and the Pens wouldn't retain enough for long enough. It's also a lateral move at best. Avs decline.
