Confirmed Trade: [COL/SJS] Devan Dubnyk for Greg Pateryn and 2021 5th round pick

[PAZ]

Not anything really. He plays maybe 25% of reg season games that you sweep anyways and doesnt touch the ice in the playoffs unless your going to lose anyways

It would be the equivalent of you guys acquiring a player from Vegas that you hate (Not sure who that would be). Even if their impact on the team is minimal, it’s having to cheer for said player now.

Cam Talbot would look even better in Colorado.

So Grubauer is worse than Talbot and just a product of the D?
I expect him to come off of his hot streak and Dubes is the answer?
Holy....you are in trouble.

Cam Talbot is the one on a hot streak. In Colorado he wouldn't need to be as hot to be good.

I wouldnt care much unless its a ****head like Reaves

 

[Pucker77]

I get that Dubnyk did not have a lot of value, but if that is all you could get, you might as well have just kept him.

They're getting something for an expiring contract. Why wouldn’t you even if it’s only recouping what they lost?

It would be the equivalent of the Sharks acquiring Reaves. Even if he only played 30% of the games and would help win those games, it’s still hard to cheer for said player.

 

[Grigowski]

The Avs longer term backup is Frankie anyways.

Don´t think so.

Regarding Dubnyk: At least a capable NHL-Goaltender.

 

[Linds]

How bad is Pateryn? Could the Sharks retain 50% and sell him to another team?

God no he's terrible. Avs benched him almost every game he played

 

[the_fan]

Dubnyk's contract is up after this season, Avs aren't gonna resign him or anything. If Francouz is healthy and can stay healthy next year, it's all good and well, he has one more year left on his contract, if not then Sakic will probably get another back up, someone younger and better than Dubnyk for sure

 

[Ncit3]

Hating it less today. Athletic Q&A warmed me up a bit more to Dubnyk. Think he'll do fine for spotting Grubs some rest time.

I think Sakic should be looking for another goalie, regardless. Francouz is good when he's healthy, but I'd want to hedge my bets after he's been out for a full season. Definitely don't want to be in the situation where we're relying heavily on our 3rd/4th/5th string goalies again.

I think Johansson as your third goalie is fine as long as Francouz and Grubauer aren’t out long term.

Sorry, I wasn’t clear on my point. I meant for that deal specifically. If you had to bring in money for a 5th, why not decline it or at least wait until the very end to see if anyone could offer a 5th or better without taking on money or at least as much.

If this deal happened late on deadline day I would understand because they clearly wanted to at least get something. Right now they have a little time to try to get a slightly better deal.

Considering they had no plans to play him yesterday, there wasn’t going to be some showing to up his value and goalies aren’t getting much right now. The only thing that could’ve changed is teams finding other solutions. They gave Dubnyk a chance to win after doing them a solid this season. The Sharks basically got Donato for free because of Dubnyk.

Then Johansson would be your first goalie.

 

[Gecklund]

Yes yes he would if both of them are out long term. If both of then are out long term seasons already over for the Avs though.

 

[IWantSakicAsMyGM]

I think Johansson as your third goalie is fine as long as Francouz and Grubauer aren’t out long term.

If Francouz wasn't currently in the middle of missing what will likely be an entire 56 game season, with a hopefully long playoff run, due to injuries, after playing injured in last season's playoffs, I wouldn't be suggesting we look for a new goalie. But, we can't rely on Francouz being healthy, and I think we need a more reliable backup than Johansson. Obviously, the first priority is to get Grubauer extended for a few more years, but there are some interesting options on the UFA market for a backup, or even a 1B. But, that's a decision for the off-season, when we know whether Francouz can get healthy for next season.

 

[TheTechNoir]

Sakic is a horrible GM. He had a chance to make a cup contender. Instead he avoids hot FA's like Panarin or trading picks and prospects for Hall's to sign guys like Donskoi and Toews or trade for Kadri's. He didn't even use his available cap space despite being a good team. Wasted cap sitting there not helping the team. And what's up with the contract terms? All their core players are up for renewal on different years. That staggered structure just messes up chemistry and has the whole team disjointed. Seriously, now he traded for DUBNYK? WHAT? Horrible. Worst trade of the last 5 years, ainec.
