Proposal: EDM NYR

[TFHockey]

Edmonton Oilers 2018 2nd



Igor Shestyorkin

Talbot has one more year on his contract. Edmonton needs a back up who can push Cam and play 20-25 games. If Shestyorkin outplays Talbot the Oilers have leverage in negotiations.

By all accounts the 2nd is a high one.

Shestyorkin isn't being dealt for a 2nd round pick.

He's a possible future #1 goalie.

 

[Jumptheshark]

Rangers need him

I think Edmonton could add a prospect. I wasn't sure how much the NYR value their KHL prospect. Maybe we add Caleb Jones and the Rangers add a 3rd or 4th?

Edit: I think the Rangers have a few good goalies in their system... that's why I thought Shestyorkin could be available.

NYR goalies to EDM.... Talbot, Montoya ... and I believe Oilers also acquired Mike Richter for a day.

This to a tee

 

[storosten]

no thanks!

 

[Machinehead]

Goalies have low trade value, and I think he's worth significantly more to the Rangers than what he would bring back.

 

[Don Chytil]

No shot. I think Georgiev could be had for a 2nd round pick, though. He's a 22 year old goaltender who put up solid numbers in the AHL and NHL this year.

Absolutely not. Shesty is not available.

Yeah that is true. I thought adding a defensive prospect would help...

Unless you or someone absolutely blow the doors off (think Klefbomb), the Rangers aren't trading him. He's the likely successor to Henrik Lundqvist.

And I doubt anyone will blow the doors off for someone whose yet to start an NHL game. His value to NYR right now can't be matched in a trade.

 

[GregSirico]

One of the top goalie prospects in the league with Lundqvist a few years away from the end of his deal for a second round pick? C'mon man.

 

[EpicDing]

Shestyorkin is virtually untouchable. He's arguably out best prospect, if not then definitely #2.

With Hank's career winding down we need him.

 

[Alluckks]

Georgiev for a 2nd

Asking for Shestyorkin is absolutely hilarious

 

[ManofSteel55]

If I was an NHL GM, I'd hate trading for goalies almost as much as I would hate not having a starting goalie.

A 2nd is a massive overpay for Georgiev. Dude had a .909 in the AHL.

 

[Jumptheshark]

I think NYR fans did damper their prediction for the guy. I saw the guy play about a dozen times over the past two season.. love cheap flights to saint Pete from London(beautiful city year round) and his numbers are soft and it could take awhile to adjust to North American hockey and demands of being a starter. Also remember he was playing on a team that was one of the best KHL teams. I think he will two years and the farm to not only adjust to na hockey but playing a lot of games. Something he did not do this year

 

[Jumptheshark]

Not saying he won't be a good NHL goalie but he is not ready for the nhl

Talbot put up a .902 in the AHL when he was older than Georgiev.. with a better AHL team than what Georgiev had in front of him.

Georgiev also had a very good string of games in the NHL (also with an AHL defense in front of him). Using the words "massive overpay" is a stretch - sure, his value is probably a 3rd and not a 2nd. But we have no real reason to give him up.

I will politely decline. Shestyorkin is one of the top goaltending prospects in the world. As risky as goaltenders are, if he hits his potential he could be a star in the NHL. It would take significantly more than a 2nd rounder.

Rangers aren't giving him up for a 2nd bro. He's Lundqvists successor.

This is a fair assessment. I don't think any reasonable fans expect him to step in and be Lundqvist 2.0 or anything like that, at least not right away. But his numbers, even if they are inflated, are impossible to ignore IMO...pair that with his athletic ability and the fact that he's currently heir apparent for the Rangers net. a 2nd isn't a big enough return to hedge against losing your next #1 goalie. Just not going to happen...

And to those saying that Georgiev for a 2nd is an overpayment, maybe on the surface it is. But if you watched him play this year in the NHL, he's got a lot of great qualities. Obviously it's a small sample size and he's not proven an ability to do it over the course of a full season in the NHL...but he's got the makings of a very good backup, at the very least. I'd be just as fine holding him for that reason.

I fail to see how that has anything to do with his value to us and why we would absolutely not trade him away barring a very significant return [which a 2nd round pick absolutely is not].

NYR making up for all the 80s Oilers they took from us
