LA have goaltending back up in Peterson but in their current state, a solid back up is probably the least of their priorities.
It would make absolutely no sense to trade Campbell in a deal for mid round picks and then pay more for Georgiev.
Carolina and San Jose may be your teams to make a play for Georgiev.

I think LA is looking for their future starting goalie. And that is definitely not Petersen.

They better hope LA is interested. I think Rangers overplayed their hand. Leafs didn't fall for it and shored up their net elsewhere for much cheaper.
Are you saying the Kings are content with Quick being the starter for 3 more years?
RIP then
Georgiev has a much higher potential than Campbell.
He’s a starter material and he’d be the NYR future if they didn’t happen to have Shestyorkin.

Cal Peterson is our goaltender of the future. Anyone doubting this has never seen him on a regular basis. Just because you dont know the name doesn't mean he isn't a good player.

What choice do they've? Kings are stuck with Quick for 3 more years like it or not. Doubt he's tradable with his injury history. And tons of teams will be looking to upgrade their Goaltending depth here not just LA. And probably have better pieces to offer Gorton Detroit being on of them

He's barely an average goalie in the AHL at 25, he's your future starting NHL goalie? Good luck.
Georgiev has better numbers and played way more games

The Rangers were looking to be blown away or they'd sit on their hands. They don't need to trade Georgiev and I hope they don't. I haven't heard any actual chatter from the Rangers usual suspects that they were actually or are actually shopping Georgiev.

Carolina could use an upgrade in goal for this season, but I don't know if they want to pay up for Georgiev as a long-term upgrade over Nedeljkovic or Kochetkov. I think Carolina is more likely to look for a short-term solution if they make a move this season, and address goalie via the market in the off-season and/or bring up Nedeljkovic to back up next year's starter.
Some people are forgetting that we do not have to trade Georgiev. If we receive an offer that we cannot refuse then we move him but for the time being the Rangers are happy to retain his services.

I think the reason they moved Campbell is because Quick won't be moved, and they have Cal Petersen. Kind of the same problem the Rangers have.

I guess if you're just looking at his stats, yea. And speaking of looking at stats, he stats are pretty good in 11 NHL games too.
But if you've watched him for more than a handful of minutes, he's played behind a horrid, young defense in Ontario and he's kept the team in games they had no business being in.
Kings are pretty confident he'll be the goalie of the future. At least the near future. And we'll see how that goes to make any long term projections.
