Rumor: 2022-2023 Trade Rumors and Free Agency: Let’s Run it Back!

[Balthazar]

Huh? What's going on? Does that mean Kuemper is gone? Or Frankie?

Means that Kuemper wants market value. I don't blame him.

 

[Foppberg]

I would've preferred Fleury or Kuemper..

 

[hockeyfish]

Hope we can recover a pick for Darcy's rights.

 

[Balthazar]

Perhaps, but those are assets the team could use at next year's deadline to improve the team.

I've been saying average goaltending can win us Cups but I'm just not a fan of Georgiev. He's an average goaltending AND has a horrible attitude.

I trust him more than Fleury.

Hope we can recover a pick for Darcy's rights.

Time to trade DK and Kadri

 

[Papa Francouz]

Sakic should sign DeAngelo now to keep Georgiev in check.

 

[Ncit3]

Eh two 3rds and a 5th. Chances are they wouldn't amount to anything.

People acting like Magic Beans actually mean anything. Especially when Colorado is picking them outside the first round.

 

[tucker3434]

Well, we won’t have to worry about a rollercoaster when we acquire a goalie that’s bad at everything.

Fun fact... Georgiev was nearly an Avs 3 times prior to this, including last summer before Sakic decided to put a bit more in for Kuemper.

 

[Richard88]

Burn all the picks!! Oof

If you look, you can find stats to paint any picture. But here is one... of any goalie that played more than 20 games last season, Gibson had the highest save percentage of high danger shots. Better than Sorokin, better than Igor.

Here's the thing with Anaheim and it has been a problem for a while. They get pinned in their own zone heavily to where Gibson has to freeze the puck at a very high level (way, way too high) since they can't get the puck out of their own zone. Then you have a team that isn't very good at faceoffs (especially in their own zone). He gets pelted with medium and short range shots over and over there upon losing faceoffs and that allows a lot of set plays to be run against them. Where even if he makes a save or two, they can get out of hand quickly and lead to goals. I can't publish the data, but Anaheim has one of the worst rates of goals off own zone faceoff time (it is absurdly bad). They get hammered off faceoff losses and terrible coaching against set plays.

People here still think Gibson sucks and its mind boggling. Hell just watch him in the games he played against the Avs the last few years. He was amazing in almost all of them. Gibson is a great goalie and the chances for a second cup with him as our goalie go up drastically imo.

 

[TheForsbergShow]

Pens aren't winning another cup with Crosby.

This is a "thank you for the cups" contract and those are always bad.

Even if they aren't, it doesn't mean they won't try in the next few years.

 

[Belgican]

Another Russian for Nuke ?

 

[Richard88]

Going cheap in net with Georgiev might be an indication that the Avs need the capspace because Nichuskin is getting paid...

 

[Richard Doll]

Did they make a mistake and trade for the wrong Rangers goalie?

 

[The Kingslayer]

Fun fact... Georgiev was nearly an Avs 3 times prior to this, including last summer before Sakic decided to put a bit more in for Kuemper.

I dont like hearing that. Joe always gets his man. Georgiev is cheeks.

 

[Balthazar]

Burn all the picks!! Oof

Girard for picks trade coming up.

 

[Vaslof]

I love Georgiev, another hometown boy to add to Rants and Lehks. He will probably sign fairly low AAV which leaves us with more space to fit others.

 

[hockeyfish]

What's his QO?

 

[The Merchant]

WOW who saw that one coming? Holy shit

 

[SoundwaveIsCharisma]

C'mon Joe, trade the 6th and 7th this year for some depth/negotiation rights.

 

[dahrougem2]

F*** off this guy is an RFA, too? What the hell is he going to ask for to be a starter?

Better not be anything over 3M, which is more than what we paid Kuemper last season.

Georgiev has been an Avs target many times already... this isn't surprising at all to me.

 

[Ararana]

Hey you guys wanted a cheaper goalie.

You got one.

He'll get the Grubi bridge just at a lower amount. ~2.75 x 3 ish
