That's exactly what I was thinking. I don't think they'll have to give up 31 if there's a lot of competition for Grubauer, but I can't see the Islanders giving up 12 outright either.

I guess i'll vary slightly and say they only give up their 3rd rounder.

 

[895]

Grubauer to NYI for 41 and 43.

 

[Corby78]

Grubauer to NYI for 41 and 43.

ugh...

 

[Blades of Steel]

Definitely should sell on the high while we can.. prob should with others as well

 

[Efactor]

Grubby and 31st for 12th and 43rd.

 

[HunterSThompson]

ugh...

Two seconds isn't terrible and you can package them to get into the late first if its the best offer. Caps have middling leverage here as every team knows they need/want to move him.

with the number of good goalies out there vs the number of teams who need them, we can do better than that IMO

If they’re giving up a pick along with Grubauer to get an Islanders pick, they better get 11 instead of 12.

Lou traded the 9th overall selection for Corey Schneider in 2013.
Schneider had similarly outplayed the Canucks starting goaltender the previous year.
Here are the two years prior:

Goalie	Year	Record	GAA	Save %
Grubauer	-2	13-6-2	2.04	.926
Schneider	-2	20-8-1	1.96	.937
Grubauer	-1	15-10-3	2.35	.923
Schneider	-1	17-9-4	2.11	.927

I don't think GMBM will trade him to the Isles at 12 without someone they love falling to that spot, which may happen, but they will end up having to add.

I think it is similar with Colorado at 16. It all depends on who is available at the pick.

22nd w/ Ottawa and 30/33 with Detroit seems more likely.

 

[HunterSThompson]

If they’re giving up a pick along with Grubauer to get an Islanders pick, they better get 11 instead of 12.

If the Islanders were to give them 11, they would need assurances the Caps weren't going to pick their guy, so it would be moot anyway.

 

[Langway]

I expect 22 or 27. Getting up to 11 or 12 would be nice. You'd think Mahoney would ideally prefer that, though it may also depend on who's left on the board. At 11 they'd be assured at least one of Boqvist or Kravtsov most likely but it's possible the Islanders could still leave them on the board for the Caps and opt for Smith/Hayton instead.

 

[HunterSThompson]

with the number of good goalies out there vs the number of teams who need them, we can do better than that IMO

I would hope so. The good news is that it will likely go down at whatever pick is traded. So unless he simply doesn't ask for the trade sooner, we know the team was unwilling to pony up.

 

[Todos a la Calle]

Grubaur + Connolly for Chicago's second 1st (27) + a prospect/young player

 

[Barry Amsterdam]

12 and a 3rd for

grubs and 31

Draft Boqvist or Kravtsov

Do the trade well before 11/12 are up.

I’m curious if Philadelphia or St Louis have inquired at all. Philly has 19. StL has a bunch of prospects I’d be interested in (Jordan Kyrou!). Both have in-house goalie options they can proceed with, but there’s some sense they may want to upgrade.

Especially if we’re hearing Detroit and Colorado as potential suitors, it seems like there are teams out there who view Grubby as an upgrade on established starters.

 

[HunterSThompson]

From the other thread...


Caps send:
The rights to Carlson
Phillipp Grubauer
Andre Burakovsky

To the Islanders for:
Johnny Boychuk
Picks 11 and 12
Anthony Beauvillier

 

[HunterSThompson]

Do the trade well before 11/12 are up.

I don't see why either team would take the risk.

 

[Langway]

Do the trade well before 11/12 are up.

I'd be surprised. Lou is probably shopping both picks pretty hard and might have plenty of incentive himself to wait it out.

The one main X factor seems to be Edmonton at 10. Do they keep that pick or do they flip it for a defenseman? That could alter things considerably. I know there were also some reports earlier on that Vancouver could move their pick at 7 but it seems like Edmonton is the main spot where there could be movement.

 

[RandyHolt]

Grubby to Chicago for their 27th OA

 

[Ridley Simon]

Grubs to Det for 30 & 33. That would be awesome.

30, 31, 33, 46. Mahoney would get at least 3 studs. And would be a great way to take a risk on a guy like Merkley, with the other 3 picks in close proximity.

 

[Calicaps]

With that list, the Isles and Canes would have to pay up for an in-division trade, especially with a couple of western teams in the mix.
