Subban has trade value, whether it's a late rounder or prospect plus the Expansion draft is one year away

Nalimov has as much a chance as Delia and Lankinen as a 2a 2b 2c

Subban has no trade value. Expansion draft both Lankinan and Delia can be exposed.
Nalimov might but I doubt he's willing to sign with the prospect of going to Rockford and competing.

I would say the bold is incorrect. Does he have a lot? No but he has some as a former 1st rounder.

Ok.

He was a first rounder eight years ago. He’s a mediocre AHL/NHL tweener. In the offseason you can sign guys like that for nothing.

 

[GaryU]

Don't know what this means?
Crawford doesn't affect gravel at all, which was my response from the post above mine.

Some people seem worried about Gravel's advancement, I said Crow took a long time to get to where he is.

Ok. No biggie.

ANd he has 2 ok to solid seasons in Vegas and 1 not good one. He is only 26 and still has some value. A lot? No but there is value there.

This is a semantics argument. He’s got value to a team that needs a mediocre backup due to injury mid-season. A team going two or three deep at goalie might give up a seventh or long shot prospect to plug in a guy with anything close to a track record at this level.

You can find a Subban equivalent or better for free every offseason. Between Lankinen, Delia, and Subban who would you rather keep? Subban is pretty easily third on my list. Hell, I’d rather have Gravel in the system than Subban.

If Stan can move Forsberg and Berube then he can move Subban

If Stan can move Forsberg and Berube then he can move Subban

Or stan can just let him walk and be done with him.

ya that link I posted was Scott Powers.

so is this true?

hope to hell not

Powers is legit.

Hawks could be saving a goalie spot for Cale Morris.

Seems to be true.

Morris is fine if they sign him but man alive you keep Gravel and let Subban/tomkins go for christ sake.

 

[Rick C137]

Signing Gravel could very well mean Morris looks elsewhere. UDFA goalies don’t normally sign in organizations that have already have 4+ goalies on NHL contracts.

 

[Kevin Musto]

Morris is fine if they sign him but man alive you keep Gravel and let Subban/tomkins go for christ sake.

Subban is being let go in addition to Gravel. It seems clear to me the Hawks are opening a goalie spot for someone. Morris could be the guy.

Hawks
Crawford
Morris

IceHogs
Delia
Lankinen

Fuel
Tomkins
Auburn

so you let subban and Tomkins go or Delia even.

who is Auburn?

Lankinen should be splitting NHL starts if Crawford is the other goalie next year.

Subban is expected to be let go.
Tompkins is signed through next year. Delia becomes waiver eligible. Lankinen can be sent to Ahl without waivers. Aubrun is a d3 goalie who had great numbers, signed a 2 year Ahl deal.

Gravel was a flawed goalie with tools. You can sign a dozen of those every offseason.

Yeah but he was OUR flawed goalie with tools
