<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Rob32sjsharks</b></div><div>You 100% did and I was pissed we didn’t get Holtz. In retrospect he better fits our top 9 skill and style wise.
We also love Mukh as he is developing very nicely and then to add Musty who was a gift and has developed beyond my expectations so far, plus another pick this year that deal really worked out well for the sharks. And I have to believe the 2nd half of this season Meier is looking more like himself and will be valuable for you guys.</div></div>

I was worried about Meier for a bit to start the year, especially with some ugly results battling the MCL injuries (that obviously I didn't know the extent of at the time, but I have been incredibly happy with what Meier has provided when healthy. Just need him to stay that way going forward.

Shakir was always a very underrated prospect. How is he looking, since I haven't gotten to watch a lot of him lately?

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>GuyGuyGuy</b></div><div>Who said the Devils wouldn’t want a Newhook package. Nobody would have guessed the Avs would have wanted that package for Newhook. If the devils can acquire a first and second for Newhook, then trade those assets for Chychrun or another great D, nobody in Newark would complain.

A lot of Yotes fans saw Hayton gone for around a second, and for Reichel, we never know about the Hawks

As for the LD problem, Guhle and Harris can play RD. If Hutson performs at TC, Struble will be send down, vice-versa. We will have 8 nhl D, wich is well enough to have a roster while starting to look at the market for Matheson and Harris

Only way you would get us to trade Guhle is with Mercer +</div></div>

Yeah there would have to be a package that can improve us now. But usually the example of the young guy traded like that is when he’s hitting RFA. Holtz is still an ELC so I’d expect him (and this applies to Guhle to) to stay put for at least 1 more year.

Again, if we can turn Holtz+Bahl into for example Marcus Pettersson+Colton, you’d have me sold in a heartbeat.

You said Winnipeg 1st+2nd+3rd for Holtz? Or just 1st+2nd

If we could do Winnipeg 1st+3rd for Pettersson I’d be happy

And then like Bahl+2nd for Colton.

Not something I’ve thought about.

Maybe Holtz for Winnipeg 1st+3rd+Evans assuming we can make those other deals

Hughes-Foegele (Gritysuk??)-Mercer
Hischier-Bratt-Meier
Colton-Palat-Haula
Evans-Trenin-Lazar
Hughes-Nemec
Siegs-Dougie
Pettersson-Marino
Kahkonen
Allen

Yeah I think you’d have me sold in that scenario

Sujet: Hofer Time
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>mokumboi</b></div><div>I couldn't get through all that. I never said anything about Hofer being special. And the majority of those young goalies you listed have never been rated as highly as Hofer has been, either in the past or now.

I said he had the ceiling of a strong starter, which is about as unique a take as Starbucks locations. I said the Blues have no intention of trading him, which is a big fat duh. I said if the Blues give him up, it would not be for a goalie who is definitely no better. This is also an pretty cold, obvious take.

So I'm not even sure what we're debating other than you thinking I'm selling Schmid short. Which again, has nothing to do with my original point.</div></div>

Go ask those fanbases about which goalies are rated higher.

Go tell flames fans that Wolf isn't highly rated, Habs fans that Fowler isn't, Detroit fans that cossa isn't, Ducks fans that dostal isn't, Buffalo fans that levi isn't.

Sujet: Hofer Time
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>mokumboi</b></div><div>Wow, you're really invested in this. Dude, Hofer was a rookie backup this season and was always going to be a rookie backup until Binnington got hurt, which did not happen. What benchmark do you expect to him to meet here? Feel free to find all those people out there who think Schmid is better or as good or worth near as much, or whomever thought that at any time since they were drafted. He never has been higher rated, even when he had a couple brief hot spells. None of it changes my main point, which has nothing to do with how good Schmid is or isn't.

Besides, you and I both know that if you need to cling so tightly to "days of rest" stats for guys with 38 and 43 regular season NHL games, respectively, you're really scraping the bottom of the evidence barrel. Schmid has started back to back nights exactly TWO times in the NHL - the first time he got friggin shelled by San Jose (five goals on 17 shots!!) and the second time he gave up four to lose to Anaheim. This is not the boast you seem to think it is.

And who the hell asked for two 1sts for Hofer? I have no idea where that came from.</div></div>

Yes, and those 2 times have tanked schmids stats. If Schmid was getting the kind of rest that HOFer gets (backup rest), his results would be much better.

But again, I have not said Schmid was worth more than Hofer in a trade.

The point was to illustrate that Hofer is not special. Every single fanbase in hockey is combined that whatever goalie they have under 25 is a sure thing to become a stud.

Ersson, Pyotr, Dostal, woll, cossa, Schmid, daws, Silovs, Bussi, Fowler, Wolf, Levi, and 100 other guys. And each of their fanbases is CONVINCED they’ll all be sure things. Heck even you showed it more by assuming the next 2 goalies AFTER HOFer are also sure things to make it.

Every team has one of these goalies. And every fanbase is convinced that their crapshoot goalie is better than everyone else’s crapshoot goalie. They don’t fetch much in trades if you try and sell them.

And so teams simply keep them and play the lottery on it.

Or, if they try to get sold, you see prices like Adin Hill to SJS, Vitek acquired by Washington after Seattle took him in expansion, etc etc.

But hey, Schmid’s 0.922 27 games last year=flash in the pan doesn’t count

And Hofer .914 30 games this year=totally legit and sustainable this is the bare minimum going forward

Hofer went in the 4th, Schmid in the 5th. Pretending you’ve got Askarov or Wallstedt out here lmao.

Frankly going into next year I’d prefer Schmid because his waiver exemption allows you to hold 3 NHL ready goalies in case of injury, while you are locked into just 2 options with Hofer, with your 3rd option being a guy who will pass through waivers
