Barely, and not enough for Minnesota to justify trading for him. Besides, Flower's numbers are skewed.

Take away the first 3 games where Flower and the team allowed 20 goals against and his first game back from injury where he allowed 6 against as well, his goals against number is basically identical to Anderson's. They're actually playing at the same level.

There's also the fact that Minnesota's defense has been more porous than Buffalo's this year, especially to start the year, so Fleury had been seeing twice the shots Anderson did. Anderson's numbers would have plummeted if he were in Minnesota. But the defense has rebounded nicely since late November and been the 3rd best defense in the league since then.

In short, the team in front of them is the greater cause and effect of why their numbers look the way they do. But on a closer inspection, they've played at the same level all year long. The QS graph at the bottom of the link I provided supports that.

Sujet: Whats the market going to be for Reimer
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Augustus</b></div><div>Minnesota has played their way back into the conversation. I think a 2nd round pick would be worth giving up to have Reimer as insurance in case Fleury dips or gets hurt, or Gustavsson does the same - not sure how Gustavsson has been faring but I'd rather have a veteran like Reimer in there for a playoff run.</div></div>

Gustavsson has been stellar this year and his stats blow Reimer out of the water. He has looked every bit what you'd expect from your 1B/Backup goaltender thus far.

Fleury's number look worse than they actually are. They're skewed from the first three games when he AND THE TEAM allowed 20 goals through their first 9 periods of the season and from his first game back from injury. He's otherwise been extremely solid for us this year.

The Wild have a fair amount of issues, but goaltending isn't one of them.

But you can compare the three yourself by checking out the provided link here.

Sujet: Leverage Cap and Send Kuli back
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>EccE</b></div><div>I love the general idea of this trade. Hörnqvist is not a long-term commitment, brings grit and experience and is a great net-front presence. Kulikov doesn't have a place in our lineup, in my opinion. It's a clear upgrade to our lineup.

For Florida, the move clears cap and brings in a defenseman they need, even more now that Weegar is gone. I doubt any picks would need to be involved; Guerin likes to repeat the mantra that all a trade needs to be is "fair". And this trade is fair.</div></div>

That was exactly the thought process. FL moves some money and gets a nice depth piece in Kuli to help backfill the loss of Weegar. MN gets a utility guy with some grit that can be shuffled around in a young lineup.

I can’t see it happening, but I think it’s worthy of consideration
