Hard pass - no reason Zona does that deal

Terrible for Arizona.

I'm curious to know why. Doesn't Arizona need a starting goalie ?

At cost of Lawson Crouse? You must be joking. He’s the heartbeat of the team and potential next captain. Throwback power forward who’s great in all three zones, always engaged physically and is on pace for 24 goals this year (yes, it’s early but he’s looked better this season than any time in his career, including his draft season that saw him become the 11th overall pick). Guys like this take a long time to develop. Arizona wasn’t this patient for this long just to trade a special player like him before anyone even realizes how valuable he is.

There are easier ways to get thoroughly mediocre 30 year old goalies. Doesn’t require moving a core piece.

No. Bad goalies are here by design.

Crouse isn't really important to the trade, he could be swapped for another player.

Didn't realize Crouse was valued so high, he isn't important to the trade he could be swapped with someone else.

If the Yotes want to suck next year too, getting a good goalie is their lowest need.

The team still needs to compete, its not like Arizona is a free agent hot spot to begin with.

 

[Hogan20]

The new trade is closer in value but I don't think the difference between Wedgewood and Mrazek is a Bush.

 

[Recipe Unlimited]

Mrazek + 6th for future considerations next off season

 

[Stephen]

Mrazek may still factor in for the Leafs this year but I would be fine with giving him away to Arizona for nothing just for the cap flexibility.

I wouldn’t trade Crouse for Toronto’s 1st. Lyubushkin and Wedgewood for Mrazek is fine I guess. But I wouldn’t be in a hurry to do it. Wedgewood is playing very well and Mrazek wasn’t before he got injured. Lyubushkin is a net positive performer on the team.

BA wants warm bodies in goal for now. Bar is set low for the tank. He might be willing to take on bad contracts teams have for other incentives.

Leafs take that

 

[GAGLine]

Mrazek has a 10 team NTC. I'd bet a lot of money that Arizona will be one of those 10.

Arizona isn't trying to compete this year. They'd probably be interested in a goalie if they thought he was a long term solution at the position, but that ain't Mrazek.

 

[Flyer lurker]

Clearly the difference in Arizona being good this year is Petr Mrazek.

Yotes wants picks prospects. Not 29 year old schitzo goalies who will never win in the playoffs.

This is awful for Toronto

Considering the cap space you save towards resigning Campbell this is a really good deal for Toronto.

No it isn't we already have a Scott Wedgwood his name is Michael Hutchinson.

If you do that either Woll or Hutchinson is your backup.

We already know Hutchinson can't do it he was given that role and he failed miserably.

Joseph Woll did win his NHL debut but he is clearly not ready he was awful

Ok and how do you plan to extend Campbell to a (likely) 5x5 deal with zero cap space? Just let him walk and run Hutch as the back-up anyways but Mrazek is the starter?

I'm not worried one bit about Campbell's extension I fully expect it get done.

 

[YotesFan47]

I just don't see the incentive for the Yotes to let go of Bush here. He's be a serviceable bottom 4 defenseman that has shown he can play both sides and has begun moving the puck much better this season.
