LeBrun: Columbus Exploring a Quick Trade

[HighLifeMan]

I wonder about Calgary. Their goalies have been awful, and Quick was Sutter's guy before.

I get the connection - but the solution is not to bring in one of the very few guy's who has actually managed to be significantly worse than Markstrom.

If they want to send us Quick @ 50% + our 3rd back for Vladar that could make sense as it free's up a spot for Dustin Wolf next year.

 

[CrazyDuck4u]

Please trade him to vegas or edm.. I want kings to lose to their goalie they just traded, that would be funny.

 

[Poppy Whoa Sonnet]

I was under impression even at 50% he had negative value. I guess you can talk yourself into him as a postseason backup who would be motivated and can handle the spotlight in case your starter got pulled?

 

[McShogun99]

Oilers should trade for him with 50% retention. They're probably going to face LA in the 1st round and Quick will be motivated to show up his old team.

 

[McOvechking]

Quick for Campbell + 2nd

We've got Tarasov coming along, so I don't think that works for us.

Fair enough - I don't see a fit otherwise.

 

[JKG33]

Its a shame they're so tight to the cap, but he'd be a helluva upgrade over Brian Elliott in Tampa

 

[TheKrebsCycle]

What about Ottawa with Talbot apparently turning down contract extension? Or do they just see what they have in Sogard ?

 

[violaswallet]

My thoughts too. Maybe the Avs with Francouz out? Florida with Knight out? Vegas with all their goalie injuries? Seattle?

Florida is unlikely. No cap space so would need 75% retention. We're just going to ride Bob until he dies.

Not obvious Quick is better than Lyon in regular season and playoffs is too dubious. I'd only

Quickly exploring a Quick trade, damn you Columbus

 

[SeanMoneyHands]

Quick probably already asked for a trade even before his new jersey was made. Quick is pissed!!!

 

[violaswallet]

Ideally this would have been agreed to before the trade with Columbus retaining 50% and the Kings paying a 5th for someone to retain the other 25%

Can LA retain the 25% as the pass through?

 

[Pure West]

Here's a question. Why would anyone want an expensive, bad goalie? Seems like a given that no one will give up an asset for him, even retained.

What does Columbus owe him? They shouldn't feel compelled to give something up just to get rid of him. If he's pissed and doesn't wanna move to Columbus for a month, he can not report/retire, the Bluejackets don't have to pay him, and everyone's happy.

 

[Leafs87]

Quick for Murray?

 

[Phion Keneuf]

Opposed to a slow trade?

I think that'd get them in trouble with the CBA enforcement folks.

 

[Terry Yake]

ducks should give up a 7th round pick for him if gibson is dealt. he'd ensure they end up with a top 3 pick and seeing him in a ducks jersey would be hilarious

 

[Viqsi]

Quick for Murray?

No, because Murray has term. If we could take term, we'd have taken Petersen and this whole controversy and heartache wouldn't have happened.

Opposed to a slow trade?

A quick Quick trade.

 

[JoeSakic13]

Would instantly become #1 in Edmonton

File this one under “Hurts Cuz It’s True”

 

[SwedishFire]

Columbus discovered the bad with a Quick-fix


Oooooff

 

[HockeyVirus]

Toronto? Would give them a good option with playoff experience.

They already have that
