I think Askarov is much better than Levi.Why is Askarov where he is? By that logic hes with Levi
Askarov and Wallstedt are in my eyes the clear top 2 with everyone else trailing behind

If the panthers could trade Bobrovsky for positive value they 100% would and use that cap to bring back every single other one of their key UFAs.
Disagree with most of this. Thinking that the Panther value Bobrovsky as a cap dump is hilarious.
MAF is a completely different situation. The Knights traded him because they decided to sign Lehner, which has worked out sooooo well for them. Panthers didnt deliberately pick up another goalie at the deadline for the lols.If the panthers could trade Bobrovsky for positive value they 100% would and use that cap to bring back every single other one of their key UFAs.
He is THIRTY SIX years old and makes 10 million dollars for the next 2 years.
For a comparison, Fleury at that age was the reigning vezina winner, and he was making 7 mill. You know what he was traded for? nothing.
They traded him because they were strapped for cash in other areas.MAF is a completely different situation. The Knights traded him because they decided to sign Lehner, which has worked out sooooo well for them. Panthers didnt deliberately pick up another goalie at the deadline for the lols.
I think a lot of posters don't understand what it takes to be a starter in the NHL. It's much more difficult than being a platoon guy. Markstrom is a guy who plays 60+ games. There's only 2 guys who have started as many games as him over the last few years. Hellebuyck and Vasilevskiy. Guys like Ullmark have never carried a starter's load.Semantics, but Markstrom is a B goalie. He's an above average goalie capable of really good stretches like a lot of similar goalies in that tier. He's definitely not in the A tier.
A guy like Vanacek would have been your C and D tier guys
Hey, if Jeremy Swayman can be had with NJD 10th overall pick+ some adds, sign me up and get me away from this godawful markstrom bullshitI can't see any goalie holding a top 5 value. Igor is on the verge of making bank and Swayman is a few years away from huge cap hit as well. Only way I could see a top 5 pick being moved for a goalie, is if a team wins the lottery and jumps from 16-15-14-13-12 into the top 5. Otherwise, top 5 teams are usually more than a goalie away from being good.
If I'm Boston and you want Swayman then I want Nemec. 10OA in this draft? Not a chance.Hey, if Jeremy Swayman can be had with NJD 10th overall pick+ some adds, sign me up and get me away from this godawful markstrom bullshit
Untrue.I think a lot of posters don't understand what it takes to be a starter in the NHL. It's much more difficult than being a platoon guy. Markstrom is a guy who plays 60+ games.

Hence why I have Jeremy Swayman in the 5th overall tier. Markstrom actually in fact fell apart with a weak defensive core once Tanev was gone sporting a 0.870If I'm Boston and you want Swayman then I want Nemec. 10OA in this draft? Not a chance.
Markstrom would be an ideal fit in NJ. You just don't see it. He's a good goalie for teams that give up a lot of high danger chances. That blueline will continue to do that for the duration of Markstrom's deal.
Read it again. I never said the last 2 years. I said the last few of years. 2 years is an extraordinarily small sample size with veteran goalies. I'm also not sure where you're getting the stat table, but it's incorrect in the GSAx stat line.Untrue.
Markstrom is 11th in games over the last 2 years behind this list. Not even counting the playoff games any of these guys have played that markstrom has not. And yeah, who knows if markstrom can maintain a high workload into his mid 30s. Just 5 goalies since 2007 have been able to play 100 games in their age 35 and 36 seasons, broduer, henrik, luongo, miller, and thomasView attachment 880652

So you're saying he struggled after he was told he's going to NJ and they traded his 2 best friends while the team completely fell out of the playoff race and dealing with an injury? Shocker. Calgary had 3 #8 defensemen in the lineup and a guy who hadn't played in a year and a half. They also had 2 NHL centers on the roster. Before that he was #1 in the NHL in high danger save percentage.Untrue.

Markstrom is an aging goalie. I'm not looking back to 3-4 years ago to show he can handle a full workload. The workload he can handle will only become less and less as he agesRead it again.
