Sujet: LA Rebuild - Your is Team Likely Involved
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Vanderm</b></div><div>Not for lack of creativity, but CGY won't take that deal. Quick has an incredible resume, but Tkachuk isn't moving, especially for goalie. CGY isn't looking to acquire a long-term goalie option (Quick) since they believe the pipeline is strong for an internal starting candidate within 2-4 years (Gillies, Rittich, Parsons). Plus, goalie market is broadly open right now and there aren't as many buyers as there are sellers, so CGY could spend much less, improve in net, and retain Tkachuk.

I will also add that Quick's lower-body injury history is very troubling for any team looking to trade for him.</div></div>

Appreciate the feedback, wasn't sure how much Calgary valued a win-now type goalie. I guess Fleury would be a better fit with his contract expiring in 2 years and probably will cost less.

None of these trades really make any sense, and neither does the money and term involved on the signings.

Huge undervalue on Vatanen.

Why is Vegas giving us a draft pick and they take Marincin and pending UFA Hunwick?

The Chicago trade doesn't make sense since TVR is an established 3rd pairing guy, yeah it sounds like he will get plucked by Vegas but trading him for a guy that isn't exempt plus tacking on a draft pick doesn't seem to be logical in my view.

The last 2 trades don't really make sense either, why does San Jose trade for the rights to a guy who's a UFA, plus I think they're happy with their goaltending situation. The leafs trading Bibeau away for scraps would mean they're trading away from a place they lack depth, yeah you have those other signings (Grubauer wtf?) but I think they hope Bibeau can project a few years down the road to be an NHL goalie.

Brown deal seems reasonable. Hyman seems lengthy. Not sure if Leipsic will get multiple years on a one-way though he deserves a shot at a roster spot next year. No way Bibeau gets 900.

Doesn't make sense to trade 4th line guys essentially straight up when Fehr is cheaper and less term.

Islander trade doesn't make a ton of sense to me. Taking on Halak, a guy who probably wants to start, and paying him that much even just for one year I just don't see it. I think they want someone behind Freddy who knows his role is to back him up. Also, trading JVR, a 30-30 guy who's a vet on this team, plays LW which this team is a bit thin on, for an unproven forward at the NHL level and a middling D is probably undervaluing him.

Carrick trade I assume is so you don't lose him for nothing in expansion but they need depth on RHD so I would expect Lou to maybe get Vegas to pluck someone like Marincin for "future considerations", without having to trade away from a spot you lack depth.

The lineup you have is pretty scary in a bad way for me. An all rookie 3rd pair, a LW depth chart of unproven NHLers and no real upgrade in depth on D is frightening. Down the middle looks really nice though.
