He’s definitely top 20 lol.
Probably top 10.
But after Igor and maybe like 2 others there’s a massive drop off

Devils improved with this trade for Mark, but the real question is will the window of the rest of the core match up with the goaltender's?
The Devils sure are a competitive group, but gotta think they wont hit their peak with their youth in 2-4 years. By then Markstrom will be 36-38 - will he still have enough in the tank? Hes faded as the season goes on and showing some wear as it is.
More importantly will Jack and Dougie stay on the ice?

Saros

Bobrovsky
Igor
Sorokin
Oettinger
Swayman
Ullmark
Hellebyuck
Are guys who I'd say are clearly better. There are guys in the next group where he'd fall into who are all pretty much the same.
He was very good until he wasn't last year. He was a disaster and one of the worst starters in the league a year before that.
I'm not really seeing a needle moving goalie. I see a guy who is turning 35 coming off of a strong season. Good luck to him on replicating that.
Yeah the Sharks.

I thought the league office frowned on trades/major announcements being made during the Stanley Cup finals? Apparently, not... LOL

Well they certainly CAN Neil - its just a waiver claim. Theres nothing fishy about that.
As far as the WHY -
Meeting the cap floor
Veteran Presence
A former Shark
Speculate all you want. Not sure what rules were broken here
Neil... you traded Zubov and Nedved to Pittsburgh for the shells of Luc Robitaille and Ulf Samuelsson.
You don't know hockey.

Markström definitely belongs into that group, and he is capable of having a season better than anyone in that list. For how long? That's another story.

6.25 is ridiculously low for him. f*** that franchise

With an .892 and .905 the last two years? Top 10? No, I don’t think so.
Soros, Igor, Vas, Sorokin, Sway, Ott, Demko, Bob, Ullmark, etc… there’s a ton of guys I’d put ahead of him at this stage.
Benedict f***ing Arnold right there. Screw you, Smith!
Last year was the first year he finished in the top 10 in xGSA in his career (9th.)
As @Mac n Gs pointed out, he was top 3 for most of the year before it completely unravelled for him down the end. If he's capable of doing better than anyone, he hasn't done it yet and I don't think he's going to start at the age of 35.
He's had multiple seasons in the negative otoh. He's been all over the place during the career and has been doing this one year on one year off for a little while.
Not posting any revelation's here, but PLD turns 26 on June 24th.
The buy-out window this year will begin 48 hours after the Stanley Cup playoffs end.
25 or younger 1/3 of salary is owed.
26 years of age 2/3 salary is owed.
Though unlikely, Washington might still buy-out PLD?

Based off of what their GM said today it sounds like they are going to keep him.

I guess I've seen it all. On the main boards, apparently the Devils (who were closer to the worst team in the East than they were to the playoffs) are objectively a playoff team without question.
Oh, and Matt Rempe, according to one of their fans, ruined their chances at the playoffs. It's hard to take this stuff seriously if these are real responses. It's hard to tell these days what is trolling, what is serious, and what is a fever dream. It sure doesn't quell the "rent free" remarks.
We sure are in silly season. Should be fun the next few months. Or hell.

I've literally never heard fans of a team that bad claim in such strong words that they will be a playoff team just from acquiring a goalie who is old and was trending down at the end of the previous season.
And then seeing all of our Rempe jokes somehow confirmed makes me feel like I ingested a ton of meth.
I need to stay off the main boards, lmfao.

"I can fix him." - Jets, Kings, Capitals
The New Jersey Devils now have:
The best forward in the East
The 2nd best forward in the East.
The 3rd best forward in the East.
The best defense Corp.
And by far the best goalie in the East since Brodeur.
6 straight Cups incoming.
