Rumor: 2024-2025 Trade Rumors and Free Agency - Offseason Edition

[henchman21]

Seems about like the right price. I think people massively overestimate how expensive goalies are.

So you’re saying we’re getting Saros?

 

[Spilot23]

They won't do anything until earliest tomorrow, there is a pseudo unwritten rule that teams try to not conduct any major business until the Cup is over. In order to not distract from the Cup itself. Some teams don't care, but the Avs typically don't make any moves until after the Cup has been decided.

Clearly Sens and Bruins didn't get the memo doing this in a game 7 SCF

Nope

 

[Pierce Hawthorne]

The fact the Sens were able to dump Korpisalo in this is just wild.

Would you take korpisalo at 2m?

 

[The Mars Volchenkov]

Ullmark didn’t want to go West. NTC at work.

 

[Pierce Hawthorne]

I wouldn't take Korpisalo for free.

 

[Balthazar]

Ullmark didn’t want to go West. NTC at work.

Didn't want to go West and didn't want to extend with a new team.

Bruins were screwed.

Boston has options there. He’s a solid backup who has performed in the playoffs before. They can keep him while they have cap, but if they retain another million… they’ll have teams lining up at the deadline.

 

[AvsFan2123]

We are getting dangerously close to running it back with Georgiev lol. Damnit. I should just accept it by now. Markstrom and Ullmark off the market. Legit the only other guy I can think of that’s an upgrade AND also rumored to be on market is Saros.

I thought Georgiev did enough in the playoffs to save himself. I would imagine that Justus will be getting more frequent starts though as they really try to figure out if there is something more than a backup there.

I mean 3.25 seasons at 2 million sounds tempting.

If nothing else, give annunen more starts at the beginning of the season then ride Georgie..

 

[dahrougem2]

Wow. They even unloaded Korpisalo on them. That itself is a win for one of the worst goalies in hockey.

 

[Murzu]

Yeah.. what the heck. If goalies are this cheap, how come it teams don't fix their issues more often... Korpisalo is a dump, even 25% retained.

It’s simply because NHL teams refuse to give up 1sts in these trades… which is pretty dumb.

Rangers could really save on future cap expenses by swapping Igor for George.

They could send any Igor for all I care.

You could draft your own future starting goalie with the 1st! If everything goes well, it will still take 5++ years when it comes to goalies.. if teams need a goalie, just pull the trigger if that's all what it takes.

I don’t disagree at all.

I still stand by my every 4 years draft the top goalie in the draft with a 1st strategy. Even if it only works 50% of the time (and by numbers it would work more than that), you get a starter every 8 years.

There is some logic behind that strategy for sure.

Just poach the Rangers goaltending scouts, they’ve produced upper echelon goalies that they’ve been able to run with for each decade since the 80s

And only one cup too ….(I kid I kid)

It must suck for CNap watching teams make moves already, knowing our next 4 months will consist of re-signing Mitts, hopefully re-signing Drouin, and giving out PTOs and league minimum deals while waiting for Nuke/Landy shit to play out.

You don't think they have clear vision about the Nuke situation already? Do you think Nuke will play for the Avs again?
