Speculation: Should the Canes explore the Goalie Market

[Ciao]

Upgrading a 3rd to a 2nd for a goalie we don't need and getting an expiring deal? I don't think he'd get roasted.

I'm not a Pens fan. You would know much better than me.

i know it won't happen, but i'd love to get mrazek back. all he's doing for chicago is hurting their draft position, i tell myself. they should be glad to let him go.

Had Carolina excercised some good pro scouting, stolarz and thompson were both avail via free agency and they decided to keep the injury prone whose won nothing andersen

Good pro scouting is Roslovic and Robinson. We had a "healthy" Anderson and Pyotr, Neither Stolarz or Thompson would want to play 3rd/Ahl'r. Sucks to be where we're at with both going down, but a knock at our pro scouting aint it.

Matt Murray for a conditional 6th based on playing 10 + games. Otherwise future considerations. Low risk for both sides and could actually help the canes if Murray pans out at all.

I think a Mrazek re-union is going to happen.

Not a bad suggestion. Murray will cost nothing, looks fine enough in the AHL (and pre-season), and can easily disappear if things don't work out.

And be honest, Canes fans. It worked out pretty well for you guys the last time Toronto let you use one of our goalies that everyone thought had no business being in the NHL.

Chicago & Mrazek makes sense given their situation with Soderblom and Broissot (Arvid is getting very close to games played max making him eligible for waivers if demoted).

However, they do NOT know when Broissot will return. Carolina likely has to wait for that issue to be resolved.

Otherwise, Chicago can absorb Andersons contract. The issue is: is Carolina OK with TWO years of Mrazek?

IF Chicago takes Andersson’s contract, you’re likely looking at a 2026 1st + mid level prospect return from Carolina.

Carolina should -- Andersen especially clearly cannot be trusted to stay healthy -- but this feels very much like the kind of thing Dundon and Tulsky will think they're smarter than everyone else on and play Spencer Martin for like 20 games in a row.

Another use for the Raise Cane spell.

I love breaks like this where someone claims inside sources on the most obvious thing in the world.

(yes I realize it’s Weekes and he does actually have sources, but come on)

 

[Lunatik]

So who could be available?

Anaheim - Gibson
Boston - Korpisalo
Calgary - Vladar
Chicago - Mrazek
Detroit - Lyon, Husso
Pittsburgh - Jarry, Nedeljkovic
San Jose - Blackwood, Vanecek

Anyone else?

The problem is that Carolina would need retention and SJ has no slots.

San Jose also has a plethora of cap space if you need to offload some salary to make the numbers work.
