Player Discussion Is Smith cooked? Edit: YEAH HE IS!

I'm not convinced Mason would be an improvement over any goalie in our system.

I’m not either, but he’s free and zero risk. There’s also a chance he could be an okay backup.

Disagree. I think there are issues with Mason beyond SV%, but I don't know what those things are. The reason why I say this is that there are a ton of of teams picking up goalies off waivers this season rather than signing Mason. I don't think Mason is a guy to target.

And risk wise? There is one assuming somehow Smith isn't playing.

I wonder if Colorado would be willing to make a deal for Pavel Francouz? He's only on a 1 yr contract.

I think Colorado are trying to move Varly to give room for Francouz....

The reason there’s no risk is because he can be waived if he’s no good.

Hmm... I get what you mean, but I feel like sending him to the AHL and creating a multi headed monster there wouldn't work great for the young guys.

Mason probably wouldn’t report so I wouldn’t really be to worried about that either. I think he would just retire.
