The elephant in the room. Which goalie gets dealt?

[DJB]

So this topic has been slightly discussed, but not outright to it's fullest. No way Murray keeps 3 netminders heading into next season so one of them is getting dealt. So which one is it?

Depends on the playoffs
Depends on how much someone is willing to overpay for Anderson
Depends on how much someone is willing to overpay for Lehner

Of course much depends on what someone offers for any of the 3 goaltenders. But in the end who do you think Murray trades?

Don't call Lehner an elephant. That's offensive.

 

[Vesa Awesaka]

Lehner because you're taking a big risk betting on him and Hammond
Anderson because of money

I'm going to bet on anderson even though i think its a mistake. More team will want Anderson then Lehner and Anderson's salary needs to be used on the RFAs.


Trading Lehner simply doesnt give the sens enough flexibility money wise. My bet is that Anderson and Cowen are package together. Edmonton is an obvious candidate.

Yes please have some ******!

I just think it isn't clear at all right now.

As much as I like Andy, it should be him.

We are taking a risk trading Lehner, as he may end up being a great young goalie. Andy is 34, and probably only has a few good years left.

Depends, if Hammond falls apart in the playoffs it will be difficult for the sens to bank on him next year despite the incredible run, especially if it comes at the expense of a vet like anderson.

I think the Sens would be insane to trade Lehner, so its going to come down to Hammond or Andy me thinks.

Well then I guess you should wait on your vote until it becomes clearer to you.

I'm not sure how we can assume that Hamburglar will stay here. This is the opportunity of a lifetime for him. Assuming he does reasonably well in the playoffs, he would be a fool not to try his luck in free agency. Then all bets are off as to where he'll sign.

If we can get him back, sure we could then trade Lehner, since Anderson provides a reliable option as opposed to going with two risky plays. Otherwise the most likely outcome is that we're back to the old Anderson/Lehner tandem.
