Sportsnet: "A few middling NHL goaltenders could be had via trade." TORONTO - luke fox

[Ianturnedbull]

"Names such as Jake Allen, Eric Comrie, Anton Forsberg and Dan Vladar — whom Treliving traded for and re-signed in Calgary — will pop up."

Quick Shifts: Maple Leafs' options to solve their goaltending woes

In this week's Quick Shifts, Luke Fox covers the Maple Leafs' options to fix their Ilya Samsonov issue, Blake Wheeler and Jacob Trouba reversing roles, why Rod Brind'Amour should be re-signed already, Adam Fantilli vs. The Rookie Wall, why save rates keep dropping and seven other NHL goodies.

The question is what is the price?

[Michoulicious]

An early 3rd or a late 2nd should be the asking price.

 

[herashak]

The other question is could Markstrom be had instead of Vladar?

Almost certainly

 

[Mrfenn92]

Mid round picks flying

Leafs want no part of that deal. People seem to forget we are in a tough spot because Woll has a high ankle sprain and is our starter. We just need a 1B goalie who can make a save as Samsonov is unplayable. When Woll comes back he will be our starter again

 

[Iwishihadaspacebar]

If the Leafs acquire Eric Comrie then I'm certain their management love trolling their fans.

Swapping a guy with a .862 save percentage for a guy with a .863 save percentage would be the funniest trade in decades.

 

[Skinnyjimmy08]

May as well just keep Jones and Woll if those are the options

Just keep Sammy the hell out of the net

 

[TMLegend]

No point in giving up mid to late round picks for marginal upgrades at best. Would much rather just bring in Halak, Elliott or some other UFA.

Joseph Woll is made of paper mache and has a career high of 32 games. Good luck with that plan.

 

[gritdash60]

Middling goaltender is exactly what Toronto needs, they have only tried that 20 times now.

 

[Captain97]

Jake Allen for Samosonov + 2x3rds probably makes sense. One third is for Allen and one is for taking Sammy.

If he has high ankle sprain be awhile before he's 100%. I had one before, I was a long while getting back to myself. Been better off if broke my ankle

Nah. Montreal won't be taking back a crap goalie. The reason they're looking to move a goalie is because they have 3 on the roster as it is.

 

[ManwithNoIdentity]

Reimer is all yours for a bag of pucks

 

[DomBarr]

The other question is could Markstrom be had instead of Vladar?

Except the price goes from a 2nd or a 3rd to. 1st plus prospect plus a cap hit

Who does that make sense for?

21st time's the charm!

That would be so on brand, f*** me

 

[brock hughes007]

Build from the net out,should have been the plan all a long.Instead of paying big money on forwards that disappear in the playoffs.

 

[Scintillating10]

Jake Allen for Samosonov + 2x3rds probably makes sense. One third is for Allen and one is for taking Sammy.

Price on Allen has gone up. Habs want Minten? Proven NHL Goalies are hard to come by.. We take Samsanov in trade also.

Samsonov can simply be buried.

And the Leafs could use the first wonders that will obviously be attached.
