Why didn't we get a 2nd for Mackenzie Skapski? The guy went 2-0 with a .5 GAA and 1 shutout. WTF happened to that guy?

This is Huska we're talking about!! Rangers say 'No' and change their phone number.Broberg and a 1st.
Huska has not done a lot, but he is dirt cheap, and has studied under a master.
Benoit Allaire is no *master.* His brother, Francois Allaire is the one that gained the huge reputation for his work with Patrick Roy and Jean Sebastian Giguere.
You grossly exaggerate Allaire's resume like you grossly exaggerate Huska's trade value.
Huska might return a 7th if another team likes him.
huska + 3 for a 2nd is laughable
Constructive feedback, thank you.Frankly, all goales in Hartford not named Shestyorkin struggled last season. I'm not counting out Huska from having NHL backup potential down the road, but right now you're looking at a 7th round pick or a project prospect of similar value.
Thus there's no sense in trading him. If he starts out well in Zvolen this year they can bring him back to Hartford. If he contiues to struggle they can loan him to Europe all season and decide weather to qualify him next summer or not.
Odd thread.
Bern with another gem ? I guessing his/her mother never loved him/her enough as a child and he/she will take attention even if it’s negative.
Of course I am joking like this thread is a joke so keeping with the theme. Neal 1 million retained
In a vacuum I see a 5th-ish, but if that's the case, it could meanHabs managed to move a dime-a-dozen goalie prospect Hayden Hawkey for a 5th round pick a couple of years ago so I don't know, maybe someone might actually like Huska and trade a late round pick for him. But no GM would ever be stupid enough to even consider moving a 2nd rounder to get him.
No.He should’ve been added in the Staal to Detroit deal. NY just may have been able to keep that 2021 2nd.
Much respect to your Avatar, but Benoit Allaire has done some impressive work turning no names into pretty good Goalies behind Lundqvist.Benoit Allaire is no *master.* His brother, Francois Allaire is the one that gained the huge reputation for his work with Patrick Roy and Jean Sebastian Giguere.
You grossly exaggerate Allaire's resume like you grossly exaggerate Huska's trade value.
There's truly known commodity Goaltenders falling all over the place this offseason. I don't know why anyone would give up anything for an unproven guy right now.
Sarcasm my friend.Agree to disagree.
Constructive feedback, thank you.
Overlooks one thing.
Some teams need a guy esp at a cheap price.
If his stock goes up, so does his price.
Doesn't pay to move him for the 5th or so he is worth in a vacuum.
But as a sweetener in a bigger deal, or to flip, it could be possible to the right team.
Your entire post is a rude joke.
You don't even have to be the weakest link.
goodbye!
In a vacuum I see a 5th-ish, but if that's the case, it could mean
add w/a 4th to get a 3rd
or
add w/a 3rd to get a 2nd
Just emphasizing I did not say 2nd alone.
No.
That would have required a Georgiev level return.
Huska is not there.
And there is no guarantee he quite gets there.
But he may be a serviceable, elc cheap stopgap for a handful of teams now.

Same reason you have to make sure that you are going to get what you are paying for and the guy you choose is going to bring the mail. It's not a good year to speculate on unknown commodities. COVID could hit any starter and put him out of commission unexpectedly. There's never been a better year to run a 1-1A plan and you're going to want a guy who can take about 10 starts in a row coming out of the bullpen without a problem.Agree, but the known commodity guys are all gonna be more expensive than an elc, right?
We are in a flat cap construct.
Lot's of teams have to pinch every penny and that is not counting those who also have an internal real cap.
Until someone shows me a photo of Bern and Phil Esposito in the same place, I will always assume that Bern is actually Trader Phil. Espo was the closest thing this league has actually seen to the "creative genius" that is Bern.Agree to disagree.

Frankie's accomplishments do not diminish those of his brother. Success may vary, but pretty much most NYR Gs do well.
As to Huska's value, upgrading from a 3rd to a 2nd with conditioners for insurance is not excessive.
And if timing is not right, we can still give him a few games cup o coffee, showcase and see who will bite.
I'm just willing to do a deal now. We typically do draft/sign a guy or 2 every year-ish, and moving Huska will keep that assembly line in order.
But no urgency to do that immediately.
.894 is Grant Fuhr numbers in the 80's. He might win a Vezina if he can find a way on to the 84 Oilers.I'm sorry but Huska's not going to get any NHL games unless all the other Rangers goalies go down to injury. He had a so-so college career and his first full year in the AHL wasn't terrible but it wasn't good either. This guy hasn't shown me he has any real future. Allaire can tutor him but he's still the one who has to stop the puck and .894 would have been fine in the 1980's but it isn't now. I'm not sure he'd make our top 30 prospects.
