Speculation: Is Vegas trading for a goalie?

[Coachcorner]

Now that lehner is with cruches and home, cannot play at all. We don't even know for how long, but reports say they saw him with them cruches, is vegas looking and trading for a goalie? And if so, who?

Didn't MAF say he was willing to go back to Vegas? It would be poetic justice if Vegas paid a 1st for him, considering the ice-cold way they dealt him away in the first place. Vegas needs somebody immediately, though - they are bound to miss the playoffs at this rate.

It won’t be much. Maybe a Greiss type. Possibly a Georgiev. That’s the options. Not very great. Greiss can get on a roll though. So I guess that’s the type you would go after. Someone who has a history of going on streaks. You just hope they’re the good type of streaks and not the Mrazek half season, horrible streaks.

3 goals on 6 shots last night doesn’t look like he’s on the right streak

They gotta go after Chris Driedger, do a Brossoit for Driedger swap.

 

[AslanRH]

Dadonov + pick/prospect for Martin Jones

Gives Vegas some Cap Space and a body

How about Jake Allen, once he's a played a game or two, for Dadonov and a 2nd rounder ?

Played great Saturday.

That’s what’s out there and available. Especially with teams with no cap. Maybe they can sneak a Driedger out of Seattle on a trade where they send a contract back? That’s the types.

They have to be creative though.

Depending on the pick. I’m in

 

[The Duck Knight]

The most likely moves would be a late pick for Halak or Anderson. They can't afford a goalie signed past this year. I can't see Fleury happening.

 

[Eggtimer]

Get in line. Only guys available are marginal upgrades so what’s the point ?

 

[heretik27]

I know Vejmelka is an RFA for Arizona coming off his ELC, but I heard rumblings he might be available for the right price. They've got plenty of cap space to re-sign him next season though.

please delete

 

[fasterthanlight]

Please trade for martin jones, vegas.

 

[Groo]

Reimer for Korczak

 

[Leviathan]

Who could they even fit into their cap?

Only option is probably a guy like Anton Forsberg.

Reports are that Lehner is not out long term though.

 

[JAK]

Halak (including his bonus next year) and a 7th for Future Considerations.

Canucks won't mind, it'll help our playoff chances.

 

[Ledge And Dairy]

A cheap rental if anything, anyone with term over 1M hurts them more than it helps

They need a starting goalie even when Lehner is healthy.

I hear Fleury is available

Lehner has outplayed Fleury this year though.

They aren't finding a better goalie than Lehner in a trade. Their best chance at that is to develop one.

 

[KevinRedkey]

Forsberg for a2nd

 

[Scintillating10]

Vegas just flip Montreal a 2nd for Allen. Can flip him in summer get their pick back. Allen proven NHL caliber goalie. No brainer

Has he really? They have the exact same save % and every Chicago game I have watched, Fleury is standing on his head doing the best he can to keep the Hawks in the game.

I don’t think you have watched too many Hawks games……

He's always available. There's a reason for that.
