you say that like you didn't just witness Horvat and Meier trades
- TheSabresTaco

And the Jeannot trade....

And you're acting like Saros is due for a contract next year.

Hes got 2 left AFTER this year and he's an RFA

5 garbage picks.

I would bet my house that Saros doesn't get much more than that offer (in total value)
- TheSabresTaco

I'll take that property tomorrow

Him and his agent want this resolved. I would be hard pressed to believe he's ever back in a Yotes uni. Would be crazy to me. Him going back is toxic.
- TheSabresTaco

Yep

they just got 5 picks for a grinder they arent taking that small deal

Imagine getting more for Jeannot than your top 5 goalie

apparently there is no goalie market per all the insiders.

I don't see anyone trading for Saros. We would be the only ones that would have the pieces for a trade like that. and we all know KA aint making that move.

Cam Talbot would be interesting

more quantity, maybe. certainly not quality

The goaltending is an issue but imo it's not THE issue. Yes, an elite goalie would be awesome and would be better than any of the 3 we have and it would be incredible to have that. But we don't have that and most teams don't. The defense, and not just the bottom half, has been not great. Team defense is not great.

It's very easy to look at the goalie and say "he's the issue, get rid of him and bring in goalie x and we'll be better" but then you get goalie x and surprise, he's not all that better. Teams like Boston go and get Linus Ullmark and play defense in front of him and all of a sudden he's a Vezina candidate.

If there's a chance to upgrade in goal they should absolutely do it. But I'm not going to rip the goalies especially in games where the entire team sucks, a la Toronto, Carolina.

good post

nay
- TheSabresTaco

oops must have been looking at his prior contract.

Still doesn't change the fact hes got 2 years left and hes a top goalie in the league.

He'll get more than a first and some scraps

probably a moot point. but if he's traded, i'll be back for this one. win or lose.

Couple pages ago on my 2 trade list that I think that's a reason Buffalo jumps back in. Arizona F@cked up Holding him out.
- Buff36

Of course if chickrun was injured like say, ef bear, in the past week or so... what's his value then?

Again, the Arizona Coyotes are smarter then a hockeybuzz poster.

it bothers me that they'd want to stand pat with these guys in goal. like come on.

I don't usually keep receipts but I'll hold onto this one for ya

boss we all understand why asset protection is a thing. but at some point, if you're going to do that, ya gotta make an honest effort to trade him.

Force their hand chicken-man
- DirtyDan

My boss wants to keep me out of work for a few weeks and still pay me I'm not complaining

preds got more for Jeannot than the nucks got for Horvat

probably a moot point. but if he's traded, i'll be back for this one. win or lose.

You may be on the outside looking in
(Thru the front window of your former house)

Saros is pretty young and good isnt he?
Good contract in place?

I'd be surprised if gets less then Meier. IMO

- TheSabresTaco

I see it as.

Anderson, Clearly last year, ride into the sunset here or in Ottawa (Push for playoffs here)

UPL, Rookie(right?) development year, teams clearly watch video and expose him. Can't be mad at the guy since he so young.

Comrie, seen enough. If we get a goalie(Talbot) hes out.

Management didn't think they'd be where they are. I like they are exploring their options. They want to get this right and not just get a guy for the sake of getting one and pleasing fans.

plus at some point, assets are not worth sh!t

That's fair. We also do not know for sure, how many deals were in place or fell apart? I may have been ready to happen last week?

I have 16 guys on my fantasy hockey team:

Chickenrun
Luke shenn
Pk88

Tough navigating the waters lately. Hits count...

Yep, sure are. Funny how I don't answer any of your post for the most part. I might make fun of Girgensons a bit. But You always seem to have something right away on one or any of my Posts!! If you don't like what I have to say, skip my Posts. Really have No problem not talking to you Boss.
