Would you prefer if your team had traded for Ullmark?

[Silky mitts]

Would you prefer if your team had roughly matched Ottawa's offer for Ullmark and signed him for 4x$8.25M at age 31? If you live in a tax free state you can say you'd have signed him for 4x$7.5M.

They couldn't trade for him because they already had him

 

[jetsforever]

I mean obviously no because we have Helle, but I think it's a decent move for teams struggling with goaltending

 

[Crow]

Makes no sense for the hawks.

 

[The Hockey Tonk Man]

I’m sure Colorado would have in a heartbeat

 

[Took a pill in Sbisa]

I think he'd be worth it on the Oilers but I can't see a scenario where his cap hit could fit.

I don't think he's worth sacrificing any of McDavid, Draisaitl or Bouchard for. RNH absolutely but would require him to waive his NMC

Imagine Ullmark instead of Nurse.

 

[HockeyVirus]

Leafs have the best goaltending duo in the league, we are good without him.

 

[Took a pill in Sbisa]

Imagine Ullmark instead of Nurse.

Full NMC though. If he continues his play from November he'd arguably be more valuable though

 

[The Management]

For some teams it might be difficult to allocate that kind of cap, but the Sens made a pretty good deal there for sure.

 

[Ignatius]

Pittsburgh Penguins, yes all day long.

The only real question mark for Edmonton going into the playoffs is goaltending.

I’m surprised you’d keep Nurse over someone like Ullmark.

I'd like to emphasise this current version of Nurse.



I believe he was leading the league in that span. With the disaster that last season was, his play this year has been completely under the radar from the rest of the league's fanbases. He's been playing elite

 

[Jack Spider]

I mean if he can play well for Ottawa, chances are he can play in Montreal or Toronto. That's worth something. It's a good goalie.

8.25 millions though, that's to be answered on a longer term.

This current version of Ullmark?

yeah fair. But how effective would he be with a bottom-4 of
Kulak-Emberson
Regula-Stetcher

Actually watching the player instead of going on whatever narrative is online helps in this situation. Nurse has been our best defenceman this year.

He’ll always be overpaid, but he’s played great.

It has less to do with Nurse and more to do with Skinner and Pickard.

Up until last night goaltending has been on fire in Edmonton. People need to actually watch the team instead of making assumptions all the time. Just like nurse

I’m amazed you guys are willing to bet another McDavid playoff on Skinner and Pickard but I guess it’s just me.

 

[Silky mitts]

Pittsburgh Penguins, yes all day long.

You’d have probably needed to trade a 25-27 1st top 10 protected

I would burn it down to have a goalie like him during the final years of Crosby, Malkin, Letang, etc.

 

[Skolman]

Imagine Ullmark instead of Nurse.

The Oilers are a worse team right now, if you subtract Nurse with Ullmark.

I know people like to hate on Nurse without actually watching him play much, but he has been playing some very good hockey lately

 

[SeanMoneyHands]

No, he's still a one hit wonder who won the Vezina. He's on a Andrew Hammond run right now.

 

[bobholly39]

Voted no, don't really need him on Habs.

But - the contract is mostly fine. Usually, it's not AAV but term that scares me with goalies. I like the 4 years
