Lolllll

1- Shesty will never sign for 4 years. 12M × 8 years will be the minimum
2- Rags have ZERO leverage, Shesty is a UFA.

Lol at you thinking you'll get a Mack or Byfield type of player for Shesterskin.
Lol at putting Mack in a category with Byfield. Mack is like 3 tiers above

Take it or leave it
Serious? You want one of the best wingers in the game for a goalie who’s off to a good start this year but has never broken 3.00 GAA in his career and has a career .899 SV%

You Habs’ fans really are hilarious…

They’re actually giving the Avs a discount, Rantanen is a UFA which basically means he has no value. Realistically it would probably cost Rantanen + conditional 1st (if Rants leaves) + Blue Chipper to really convince the Habs to give up their franchise goalie

Of course they would require a condition that can no longer be used in trades

I totally agree... Bren here thought he could get those player for an upcoming UFA Goalie.

My point was not to compare them, but to highlight that Shesty doesnt bring back anu of those players

I'm pretty sure any deal will be a sign and trade, with term worked out.

Best goalie in the league will fetch a pretty penny. Not mackinnon, but high price

Petr Mrzak is your guy

I’d actually love this and I think it’s a sneaky underrated target. He was great last year and looks super solid again this year. With Soderblom showing well and Brossoit coming back eventually, I feel like a deal could be made here, if the Hawks are willing to retain some.

Mrazek isn’t glamorous but he’s a far superior goalie right now than the likes of Blackwood, Husso, Kuemper, Jarry, Grubauer, Vejmelka, Korpisalo, Merzlikins, probably even Gibson. The only guy I like better from a pure performance standpoint and would be more of a long-term solution is Montembeault and Gustavsson but they would cost more. But for two years? Mrazek is a great solution. He’s a legit veteran starter, with legit veteran starter experience. He’s not just another shot in the dark “head case but upside” guy who has played more than 40 games once in 5 years or melts down consistently in the second half.

People keep throwing out names that either have prohibitive contracts or aren’t any more of a sure thing as a starter than what the Avs already have. A guy like Mrazek threads the needle nicely and a two-year timeline syncs nicely with Nabokov.

Mrazek hits a lot of the right notes here…current performance for the last year and more, experience as a true starter, contract length and potential availability.
