Korpisalo to Edmonton?
Ullmark to San Jose?
Forsberg to Tampa?
Halak to Pittsburgh?

Perhaps Stolarz to Buffalo?

I like your guesses, can't see San Jose paying a high price for Ullmark though

 

[Sheppy]

I read the Oilers weren't interested in Korpisalo, don't think Ullmark goes either.

I feel like SJ needs a starter and Swayman will be ready to take over next year. They have a Rask/Swayman combo for the rest of this season.

I can't see Edmonton being interested in any goalie who is not a known quality starter. MA Fleury should be their absolute and only target in that list.

 

[Prairie Habs]

Reimer with a .918% and another year left after this one would probably interest some GMs. I wonder if SJ feels they owe it to all their old expensive guys to keep him or if they will see the reality of the situation.

Colorado should get Price I'd they wanna really go for the Cup. I know the money and all but he would dramatically enhance the chances of them winning.

What about Gorgiev? he may be the best of the bunch and a contract you could move

 

[Mrfenn92]

Fleury will control his destination if he wants to go.
Korpi will be available
Ullmark can’t see Boston moving
Forsberg might be moved
Halak controls his future

Don’t see the rangers moving him

Price (if the Price is Right).

Ullmark has a full NMC and I can't see him waiving mid-season in first year into his deal.

I'd like to see them move him, assuming they could add Halak.

Read Halak blocked trade to EDM, can’t blame him.

All the Bruins moving Ullmark is like beating a dead horse. It's not happening. If it does I'll be mega shocked

 

[Mrfenn92]

That’s understandable but would seem to be a lateral move at best. Geo looks solid if and when shesty has been injured

 

[Mrfenn92]

Agreed

 

[shadow1]

I think Halak or Holtby would be great fits with the Avalanche.

Francouz and Kuemper are probably the two most injury prone goalies in the league, and Kuemper has been underwhelming. As far as I'm concerned, Colorado should carry three NHL caliber goalies heading into the playoffs to avoid Hammond/Hutchinson 3.0.

But if one of those two goes down before the trade deadline, as an Avs fan I'd greatly prefer Marc-André Fleury over the two insurance options I mentioned.

On top of the money and all, he's still currently not playing, with no timetable for return. Until he's actually playing again, he's not helping anyone's chances.

 

[Gecklund]

Sharks have 0 interest in Ullmark with Reimer having a better season than him and Hill being already on the roster and showing signs of a turn around.

 

[SingnBluesOnBroadway]

On the surface maybe. Geo is a good goalie. He's just not that good a backup. I'd rather get a guy who is comfortable being a backup.

Understood.

 

[WhatTheDuck]

I think Anaheim would be pretty content to go into next year with all three of their goalies still in place. Dostal still has a year remaining on his ELC, no big rush to get him into full time duty.

It's always great to have NHL ready depth, but especially important in this current climate.

Well I think he will be back before the playoffs. If you can get the guy, you get him. Last time your team did a move like this you won the Cup. You are absolutely not winning anything with Keumper, if he is even healthy come playoff time. You also never were winning anything with Grubauer. Your gonna go down the same road the Flyers refuse to stear away from. We have wasted so many great teams and good players prime years with below average inconsistent goaltending. Its actually hard to watch Colorado do the same, as I have seen it for 25+ years in Philly.

God I hope we don’t make a move for Korpisalo. He’s not even an upgrade on Koskinen.
