If we can get a haul for Demko (big if) you pull the trigger.Demko will still have a lot of interest because of his abilities. Obv the injury is a concern for a team but honestly it might be time to start at least shopping him.
Lankinen is fantastic. Behind a competent D he would be outstanding.
Any Dmen the same age who have high end skill but injury concerns?If we can get a haul for Demko (big if) you pull the trigger.
Fair but like I said it would be smart to shop Demko and see his value now and if he plays to his ceiling you circle back and see what the teams are offering then.I mean, I like Lankinen. But we've kind of thought "oh crap, our backup can replace our starter so he can be flipped for upgrades" a few times now and it didn't work out. (Martin, Silovs, Lack way back when)
Probably worth more than (half) a season to make sure he's the real deal.
Been thinking the same thing. The Hurricanes are dying on the vine in the crease.....and they have some young d-men in their system that makes your mouth water if you're a Canucks fan.If we can get a haul for Demko (big if) you pull the trigger.
