So you are saying Elvis is not leaving the building… I don't know, is there a way that you can work with a team to make a deal with them, and they then flip them to you for assets? If thats not possible there is no way it happens. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He would be a good fit. Will be able to take over the number one role , and he wouldn't have to uproot himself from the area. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No idea, but they wouldn’t be trading him directly to us, so I guess it would depend. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

San Jose pulled it off somewhat recently. Hoffman went from OTT-->SJ-->FLA. The only reason I can think it might come back to bite you is that inevitably a player on your team will demand a trade and will only go to the rags.

The hockey gods saw fit to smite us the last time we traded with them… seriously, how many breakaways did Grabner not score on? About 18?

If thats not possible there is no way it happens. That happened with Martin Jones. The Kings traded Jones to Boston, who then turned around and flipped him to San Jose. I don’t think LA was vey happy, but it’s not like there was much they could do about it lol Edited February 21, 2022 by MadDog2020 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
titans04 Posted February 21, 2022 Share Posted February 21, 2022 I guess it depends on if the GMs prioritize making their teams better. It should come back to whether or not from a hockey perspective it makes sense. Not talking a shot at anyone here personally but glad to know we're only a decent goalie away from contending for a paper playoff spot.

The Kings traded Jones to Boston, who then turned around and flipped him up San Jose. It can happen, but that probably ruined trade relations between the Kings and Bruins, since the Kings probably didn’t want to trade within their division, etc. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
titans04 Posted February 21, 2022 Share Posted February 21, 2022 The rags probably if not definitely are going to want to go with a cheaper option as a backup goalie next season. I don't think they in any way would fear Georgiev playing in the division. I think they would view him as marginal. I would agree they wouldn't send Panarin or any of their other top players here or within the division for any price. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Devil Dan 56 Posted February 22, 2022 Share Posted February 22, 2022 (edited) I thought Hutton was just on waivers. I wonder why Toronto didn’t just put in a claim. Edited February 22, 2022 by Devil Dan 56 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SterioDesign Posted February 22, 2022 Share Posted February 22, 2022 (edited) So i'm currently eating crows as.. when MTL hired St-Louis as a coach. I like him but was like... "they are a terrible team who'd need all the experience in the world to help them... i can't see how hiring a dude who've only been coaching peewee hockey for a few years able to turn this around" Yet, since he's there they have been playing a lot better and currently beating the Leafs 5-0. Obviously i doubt it will last but still. Ideally if they can actually turn things around next season so that they don't land Bedard i'd be fvcking delighted, let him go as far as possible from here. like Arizona or wtv Edited February 22, 2022 by SterioDesign Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes. And as im thinking this over im like "well...

Crisis Posted February 22, 2022 Share Posted February 22, 2022 9 hours ago, SterioDesign said: So last night MTL brought back Hammond from the dead. The last time he played in the NHL was 4 years ago. They are also fvcked in net but i think it's a good indication of how hard it is to get good goalies at the moment. Some teams in the playoffs may want to either stick to their tandem or even getting a better backup and many bottom teams would just want 1 good. I think this will make Chicago able to get a really decent return on Fleury if they want to move him. The Rangers however might decide to go all in and bet fully on Shesterkin and trade Georgiev (who requested a trade earlier this season) for something that could help them on the ice rather than a backup on the bench. Colombus may also have a decision to make with Korpisalo who's heading to free agency and with Merzlikins taking over the #1 roal and signed long term. Holtby could also be traded potentially maybe. For the record, Georgiev said that the reports of his asking for a trade were untrue. “The rumors were false, I don’t know where that came from,” the goaltender said. “You can be dealt pretty much as a player without a no-move clause, so I just worked as usual and tried not to think about it.” https://nypost.com/2021/10/08/rangers-alexandar-georgiev-eager-to-move-on-from-tough-season/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nicomo Posted February 22, 2022 Share Posted February 22, 2022 So Blake Coleman’s Flames have now won 10 in a row. I can’t even remember the last time the Devils won more than 3 in a row. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
