Wonder if Smith deal also buys us another week. AZ exposes Johnson in ExpDraft. If VGK pick MAF, Raanta and Grubauer, they'll need to deal at least one. Maybe on draft floor?

 

[MIGs Dog]

No Doan (maybe), no Smitty, destined to be the youngest team in the league I guess.

 

[Sinurgy]

Weren't they already the youngest team in the league?

Nine teams were younger. Our old guys swayed the average up.

I would rather see the coyotes chase a goaltending coach. One of the Allaire's or someone trained by them. When Benoit was here, he worked wonders with Burke

 

[EXTRAS]

I'd be okay trying domingue as a starter for the next 2 seasons

I would not have guessed that but I suppose Doaner, Smith and Vrbata kind of skews the average.

Johnson doesn't meet exposure criteria unless he signs contract.

So he will have to sign a contract by tomorrow no?

 

[Jamieh]

Same freeze as trade freeze today I Think??

With the Smith move, I'm pretty sure we'll be looking for a goalie coach. If only we could talk Burke into re-joining us, but he's obviously moved on

Of course, I suppose Schwab could move up as well and we could try and find someone for Tucson (or re-assign Elkin there--if he's interested)

 

[RABBIT]

I want Raanta or Grubauer

Well it seems the Coyotes didn't get anyone before the freeze so we're looking at a trade with Vegas to not take Domingue or they figured out a novel way to expose someone of no value. There are technically no GP requirements for goalies exposed. They simply have to be under contract for next season.

Langhamer didn't sign a QO so it's not him

So can you technically choose to expose an ELC player even though they are exempt? If so, Miska could be the one exposed.

 

[Kaizen]

Why not simply expose Domingue and let the cards fall where they may?

 

[Kevin27NYI]

Any interest in Halak?

 

[Kaizen]

How much will Snow retain?

 

[RABBIT]

any interest in halak?

nooooooooooooo

how much will snow retain?

oooooooooooooo

From listening to the call, sounds like they want a really cheap goalie and to use that money elsewhere.

Options:
Pickard
Raanta
Grubauer
Korpisalo
Condon
Nilsson
Lehner
Dell
Kinkaid
Hutchinson
Hellebuyck

All under $2.5m

 

[Mosby]

Raanta is at the top of my list.

 

[PerpetualTankYear]

Raanta is at the top of my list.

Same, and it's not really close.

 

[RABBIT]

Raanta
Grubauer

Agreed.

 

[Bonsai Tree]

Wow. I'll admit that I'm a bit risk averse, but going into the summer without the starting goalie on the roster is ballsy.

No matter what happens it can't be as bad as the year Don Maloney tried saddling us with a three-headed goalie monster of David Aebischer, Alex Auld, and Michael Tellqvist.
