Speculation: Whats next for Petey Mrazek?

[Filthy Dangles]

RFA whose owned by Philly. He has no future with their NHL club from what I understand.

I'm sure someone will pay a 5th or 6th for his rights and take a chance on him? Or do you think he'll go overseas or something?

He'll probably end up the Isles starter and be awful.

Hexy wont qualify Petr, Making him a UFA and free to sign with any team this summer, Wouldn't shock me to see him back with Detroit for much cheaper. Depending on how the backup goalie market plays out this summer.

That ship has sailed, he wont be back

 

[LEAFANFORLIFE23]

I suspect the Sabres and NYI will be in on him, maybe Edmonton Calgary and Vancouver too and in the case of Buffalo and the NYI I don't know that it would matter 1 bit.

 

[Rasmus CacOlainen]

Id like to see him in Buffalo. Still believe there is some quality starter potential there unlike with Lehner. And we need a 1A/1B to go with Ullmark for sure.

 

[TCNorthstars]

I'd take him back in Detroit for 1.5m to help the Hughes tank.

 

[Goalie guy]

I can see him coming back here.

look at your D and then tell me what goalie is going to put up starter numbers on your team. maybe a handful of elite goalies could.

Lehner had a .920 sv% in 59GP the previous season yet somehow he doesn't have starting potential give me a break.

the sabres suck and it's not going to matter who's in net if they don't fix their D. the players in front of you and the system you play is a major factor in your numbers as a goalie.

Put Lehner/Mrazek on teams that don't leave their goalies to hang out to dry and their numbers would be better than many current "starters".

Ive seen enough of Lehner to know that even on a good team he will still look trash.

Yeah i know after all the trouble Holland went through with Petr's agent, There's absolutely no way he's back. Sounds like Holland has interest in Hutton any ways.

Interesting, where have you heard that Holland is interested in Hutton? Not doubting you, just hadn't heard that reported around St. Louis.

It's funny because I was thinking that the Blues might have an interest in Mrazek, depending on how things go with Hutton!

 

[golffuul]

Probably KHL for Kladno or something along those lines. He just hasn't shown he can be consistent enough for the NHL.

Trust me, You're barking up the wrong tree, then.

 

[Toby Flenderson]

Pens should take a flier on him cheap and trade Jarry for draft picks

 

[me2]

I doubt Vancouver is interested. Markstrom had 2 years left at $3.6m and Nilsson has 1 year at $2.5m. Demko will be promoted at some point next year to play with Markstrom.

The NHL is full of inconsistent goaltenders. I'm sure some NHL team would be okay inking him as a backup. He's going to be taking a major paycut from his $4m this season though.

It's more of our insiders pretty much saying that Hutton more or likely would be Detroit's top target. Really shouldn't have said Holland because i really don't know whom Holland would target. Just mentioned that he was going after a backup this summer and it was mentioned by one of the insiders that it might be Carter Hutton. That he has the most interest in.

Any source? I'd like to read that article.

Not directed at you, stl76.

Article. Post the article.

If you don't have a source, I can work with you on the idea.

 

[Jray42]

Anywhere but here sounds good to me.

 

[BrindamoursNose]

I'm confident he won't be in Philly just due to the draft picks that go with him re-signing here. Would be a poor idea for Hexy to retain him and sacrifice another pick.

 

[FirstRowUpperDeck]

Might work as Stars backup with Kari gone.

 

[ManwithNoIdentity]

Mrazek is just not an NHL caliber goalie and will probably go overseas or end up in the minors somewhere

Although if Scott Darling is still in the NHL signed to that ridiculous contract...

 

[DudeWhereIsMakar]

Either he gets another good chance in the NHL or heads to the KHL and turns into one of their best and he comes back on the Trade Rumours and Free Agent talk as a potential comeback goaltender three years later.
