Value of: Your Extra Backup Goalie to Toronto

[The Assclown]

**** trading for a goalie, you TML fans down with Pavalec and Niemi are making me sick. Are you forgetting Niemi has 2 years left?

Just sign Enroth and get this season underway, why would we pay assets for a backup when he is probably better than anyone available at a realistic price and comes at the cost of just money? He was unhappy apparently only playing 16 games in LA, he'll get around 25-30 in Toronto, Babock doesn't like having his starters playing over 60 games. Andersen plays 55, Enroth plays 27.

NHL: Andersen + Enroth
AHL: Sparks + Bibeau
ECHL: Kaskisuo

Exactly. We'd have a number one that, hopefully, works out for us and a dependable backup that can get the job done in a pinch as well. The only thing it would cost is money.

Why not Koskinen SKA, then they have 2 world cup goalies

 

[A1LeafNation]

Niemi for Lupul

 

[The Jones Zone]

Forsberg for a 2nd

Forsberg for a 2nd

We just need a one year stopgap. Andersen shouldn't need much competition. I would prefer Enroth/Ramo to somewhat push him as opposed to a Zatkoff/Kinkaid type of guy. Either way, there's no reason at all for us to burn a 2nd round pick to fill this need.

Niemi for Lupul

I have a feeling that Tampa is going to move Bishop to Dallas for Niemi/Lehtonen plus. Also thinking that Tampa only would take Niemi and not Lehtonen.

Not sure Niemi will be available unless Bishop gets moved elsewhere. Just IMO. Plus Niemi has more value than Lupul due to health and cap hit.

 

[Halla]

Forsberg for a 2nd

nah we will let the jackets lose either him or korpisalo in the exp. draft.
doesnt make sense to give up a 2nd for a guy we would have to expose, does it?

exactly. we arent giving up anything more than a 5th or 6th for a guy we cant protect. sign enroth/ramo, or just grab one of the guys on waivers to start the year (hutchinson,condon,mcehlinney)

 

[Toronto makebeleifs]

Just a thought. Why don't the leafs go off the board a little and sign a guy like benjamin conz? Don't give up assets and if he agrees, it'll be for peanuts. I'm sure management would look for someone more proven, but with this being another development year; the risk of rolling the dice on a backup doesn't really have any negative repercussions.

 

[mrinsane]

Condon, Flynn and 3rd pick for Rychel and 7th round pick 2018

 

[The Assclown]

Condon, Flynn and 3rd pick for Rychel and 7th round pick 2018

Absolutely not.

We aren't trading a good prospect like Rychel for a backup. Flynn is useless, we have better options in the bottom six.

 

[Incetardis]

i wouldn't do Michalek for Pavelec straight up. Michalek can still be effective and is a good vet to have around with the all the young wingers. I'd retain a mil on lupul though

 

[TorontoTrades]

just give Enroth a 2 year deal

 

[Mad Brills*]

just give Enroth a 2 year deal

no.

1 year in case he sucks

 

[PSGJ]

no.

1 year in case he sucks

A) The Leafs need a goalie they can expose in the expansion draft.

B) If he sucks the Leafs can bury him in the AHL since his salary won't be much higher than 900 000.

No we don't. We've got Bibeau and Sparks

 

[Canadienna]

Leafs fan's like Condon?

He can play extremely well, just doesn't have the consistency yet. Still it was his rookie year and he got a ton of experience.

I'd sell him for a Late 3rd/Early 4th.

 

[The Assclown]

Leafs fan's like Condon?

No, not really.

 

[Bologna 1]

Keith Kinkaid?

 

[FerrisRox]

Lulz. Thinking back to the "Condon is better than Price" threads.

Find me even a single thread like that.

You live in a fantasy land.

 

[FerrisRox]

Goalies Id look at in UFA include: Scrivens, Khudobin, Ramo and my personal favourite Enroth.

Khudobin signed in Boston, no?

 

[Number1RedWingsFan52]

Khudobin signed in Boston, no?

Yes he did, So Khudobin is off the market as well.

 

[WTFMAN99]

The obvious answer going the UFA route is just signing Enroth for 2 years.

Ramo might be better but he'll cost more money and I don't know if he'll be ready for NHL duty because of surgery.

 

[seafoam]

One of NYI's goalies could be had.

Don't know if Snow is interested in moving one until after the World Cup, though.

Sign Enroth....save picks=asset management.
