Zatkoff lit up against Detroit despite playing behind a largely veteran Penguins roster. Good be a team interested in Ramo/Hiller.
I think they are more interested in defensemen, their backend has more holes in it than the story of a cheating spouse

Pens have Murray and Jarry. They don't need another goalie. A Pens backup may get into 15-20 games, zero point moving assets or cap space on a bench warmer.
Pens remind me a lot of the Oilers.
People on this forum are already penciling in multi-time Stanley's for the Oil with McJesus. Keep in mind; the Pens have 2 generational talents, a #1 Dman and a fairly good goalie (at times). Oilers don't have 3/4 of those components; Pens only have a single cup to show for all their talent as well.
I think that Ramo/Hiller would be too rich for their blood. But, passing someone like Ortio through waivers would be an easy claim for them. He's an upgrade, he's cheap... and they're low enough on the waiver claim charts that it wouldn't make or break their season making a claim.
Would it make any sense to trade Ortio and Ramo (or preferably Hiller) to the Pens for M.A. Fleury?
Flames get an upgrade and solve their logjam issue,
Pens get a downgrade in the short term, but pick up their future #1 in Ortio
Flower's on a decent contract for a #1 ($5.75 for next 4 years), which would take him out to when Gillies will be good to go.
I could be out to lunch though, but I'd rather have Fleury's experience taking us through the playoffs over the next 4 years than Ramo's. Plus we all know how good Fleury looks on the back of a jersey!
Yeah I think in that scenario, there's a lot of under-valuing Fleury while over-valuing Ortio.
Can always add picks/prospects to even the value out. Along the same lines there are other goalies out there on teams that are not in a win now mode. Rask/Schnieder for example. Working something out probably easier said then done.

Something like that would be a lot more worthwhile pursuing.
Which still makes zero sense for a team competing now.Can always add picks/prospects to even the value out. Along the same lines there are other goalies out there on teams that are not in a win now mode. Rask/Schnieder for example. Working something out probably easier said then done.

I would LOVE to win a cup with Schneider in net. Just make the Canuck fans soooo salty!
Mason Raymond to OTT for Colin Greening + something small?

I'd prefer Raymond, honestly.
They'll both get you 15 goals, but at least Raymond will score them in the NHL.
