Carolina?

 

[CanMerc]

Switching to Geico

 

[NYI365]

Canes, NJ, Toronto my guess if anything

 

[Mckay]

Switching to Geico

No, but he did stay at a Holiday Inn Express last night.

 

[HabzSauce]

His cryptic tweets are so annoying. Just tell us what you think Weekes

 

[Tkachuk Norris]

I don’t understand this post haha

He’s been a stud this year though. Better be a first or equivalent prospect if he’s traded

 

[AhosDatsyukian]

If Kochetkov injury is already known to be serious/long term I could see it being Carolina.

 

[HugeInTheShire]

Just waiting for his update from inside a claw machine.

 

[AlainVigneaultsGum]

Last night I Bond Burgered your sister IYKYK.

Toronto would be such an interesting fit, especially if the Flames take back Samsonov, but I thought Conroy didn't want to trade with Treliving?

 

[Angry Little Elf]

Carolina

 

[TheBuriedHab]

My guess would be NJ

How's Carolina's cap situation moving forward, able to swallow the $6 million for 3 years? What do you do with Freddie and his cap for next year?

 

[The Grinder]

Coming to NJ.

No source. Just please, like we need him the most.

 

[dirtydanglez]

canes and nj must be front runners. lots of teams could use help in net tho. it would be nice to see a goalie move to set the market

 

[Forge]

Plot twist, the was nothing happening with markstrom. This tweet was actually about goalie stick brands

 

[GeeoffBrown]

IMO if you can get a return for Markstrom, you do it!

 

[LemonSauceD]

If he actually has a decent team infront of him he’ll be good. Just be warned, there’s a good chance he lets in a goal on either the first or second shot of the game.

I am still waiting for Kadri to sign with NYI, eh Weekesy?

they have some ufa/rfa coming up but prospects in the pipeline to backfill and a great cap situation overall. Freddie could be LTIR depending on how things play out with the blood clots, otherwise probably trade (although he does have a 15 team NTC). Kochetkov has a $2m/yr cap hit for 3 more years so having $8M tied up in goaltending with Markstrom and Kochetkov really isn't bad at all. But I'd be hoping for some retention.

The offer would have to be insane for Calgary to even consider this. Markstrom is proving last year was a one off and has been an absolute stud to anyone with eyes. It’d also be Calgary throwing in the towel on this roster and going full team tank for multiple years, look at the splits on these goalie stats:

Markstrom •2.66 GAA, .910
Vladar •3.42 GAA, .883
Wolf •3.46 GAA, .893

Calgary lets in almost an entire goal extra a game when Markstrom isn’t the starter. We’d also have to take back as functional goalie to do this trade to insulate Wolf and not hinder his development. The return would have to be astronomical for Calgary to consider this, and it’d be the start of a scorched earth fire sale.

Markstrom and his bud Lindholm to the Canes?

 

[Kranix]

Hopefully finally trading his ass so Dustin can start 70 games. If this comes to nothing, it's yet another slap in the face to Dustin, who should then really push for a trade out of Calgary
