Sportsnet: Vegas in Need of a Goalie with Fleury on IR?

[tony d]

Yeah, things are about to get worse for Vegas. Subban and Dansk could be one of the worst goalie tandems in the league. Hopefully for Vegas Fleury is back soon.

 

[IranCondraAffair]

Hammond. He's fairly cheap. Expires. Veteran. Can start a few games. Won't require much in return, if anything.

 

[Dr John Carlson]

Capitals offer Grubauer for Schmidt. Please McPhee... you owe us after 17 years of lol.

 

[Space Coyote]

McBackup for one of Vegas Dman.

 

[danielpalfredsson]

Brad Hunt or Griffen Reinhart for Andrew Hammond. George McPhee can pretend he didn't compromise his plan to hoard D and get assets for them. The only hiccup, unless the Sens really like one of those two, I doubt they want a D with a one way deal next year (although both are very cheap).

I've never even seen this Brad Hunt guy play, But judging by the fact that he didn't win a spot in Vegas' lineup, is 29, and is shorter than me, I am gonna guess he is the typical too skilled for the AHL, not skilled enough for the NHL type player....(feel free to correct me if I am wrong).

Realistically? Hammond for future considerations (maybe we get a cond' 4th rounder if VGK re-sign him, nothing if they don't.....which almost certainly means we get nothing for him but are happy to dump off his prorated 1.5M salary)

Really hope they get Dahlin they need that star player. Not just for a team but for marketing.

 

[rent free]

You can't loan players to other NHL teams

ik that was sarcasm lol

 

[Hockeyfan2390]

That Pickard trade sure looks dumb now.

 

[airbus220]

Soooo many good goalies available and McPhee loaded up on

Lagace and Subban

Even a donkey would have done better.

 

[Redder Winger]

I don't think Vegas is in a hurry to trade for more goalie salary

 

[Boomstick]

Looks like Mike Smith will be a workhorse this year. Flames could ship Eddie Lack to LV

 

[mouser]

Mrazek with some retention + a pick for some minor asset from Vegas. Expiring Mrazek contract for Vegas. Frees up some cap space for Detroit, maybe enough to eventually re-sign AA without dumping Sheahan.

 

[TychoFan]

Is MAF out longterm?

 

[DoingItCoolKiwi]

Would 7th rounder for Hutchinson be a fair deal? I'd be more than happy if Jets got something for him

 

[Wingsfan 4 life]

Fleury's on IR, not LTIR. Unless that changes, I can't see Vegas acquiring a goalie.

 

[Mike Jones]

Sounds a little low. Maybe a 5th? That's what Ottawa gave up for Condon last year.

But, but, I want to dump Sheahan!! The guy sucks. He's useless...

 

[WetHotAmericanSutter]

Did Toronto say 'no givesies backsies' on the Pickard trade? If not, GMGM has to act quickly

 

[HaNotsri]

Lehner+Kane forTheodore. You know you can't resist a couple of vets GMGM!

 

[dogbazinho]

Why do they need a goalie. Judging by their moves at the draft and off-season I'd say their next action is trading Neal.

 

[mrinsane]

Al Montoya is the solution.. I give him for some pokers chips!

 

[howkie]

Can trade that AHL scrub Shipasås, Shipsov Shipsaw or whatever his name his for a goalie, some GMs are dumb and think he is a NHL player...

 

[bert]

Who wants a Hammond?

 

[Sens of Anarchy]

Andrew Hammond is available... Good thinking by McPhee ... the man is really brilliant

And the Sens would so like to help McPhee out

 

[Sens of Anarchy]

Who wants a Hammond?

He aint no Hammond Egger .. He's the Hamburgler
