This thread: “We’ve never had goalie depth like this, it’s refreshing”

Also this thread: “We should trade our goalies”
Well, looks like we have scouts who can find goalies now, especially overseas, so why not try and upgrade the team or the prospect pool with a team who needs a legit goalie prospect and get a C which we lack in our system. I don't think we should rush it but if Seattle comes to us and offers Wright for Hildeby or AA do we say no? Colorado might be a better example and Ritchie is their best C prospect and I know a lot of people really like Colton so what if they offered 1 of them.

Goalies hold 0 value when NHL proven, nevermind as prospects. Askarov the #1G prospect since Vasi returned less than you’re suggesting.

He got Nashville a pretty good goalie prospect in return, a pretty good C prospect who was just picked in the 1st round and another 1st round pick. Hildeby and Askarov have very similar numbers in the AHL but Askarov probably gets more just because he was a 1st round pick. Finding good goalies is hard and a lot of good teams get brought down by bad goaltending so I'm sure a few wouldn't mind taking a chance on a legit goalie prospect for a C prospect. Will it happen? I doubt it. I could see a team going after Murray though for the short term and give up a mid round pick which wouldn't be too bad.

We have a late 2nd, it's a good draft...but I wouldn't mind turning Robertson and Holmberg into some extra picks at some point to give Leach a chance to find us some gems.
I would hold onto Holmberg a little longer, he’s definitely elevated his game these past couple weeks. Robertson however I’m pretty much done with him, I hope he gets traded when we start getting some bodies back into the lineup. Rather have Grebenkin in the lineup over Robertson.

Same here. Although Grebenkin is still honing his craft, you can see that he makes space for others with his physical play. Always useful. He also has enough offensive chops to keep up with others. I guess the question is whether he's ready, defensively, for a bigger role.
