I wonder how likely it is that both Reimer and Lu are gone we'll go into next season with a completely different tandem?
I still like Brossoit though going with him as a n.1 would be very risky and who knows what the Jets would want for him.
*Sigh.* Can it be June/July already?
Reimer is nearly 80-90% chance to move imo. IF Bob signs, I'd say 50% chance Lu isn't here for majority of season.
As much as we all love Lu and his will to continue, there may come a point in season end meetings and he has "surgery" if they can ink Bob. If Monty can't handle the promotion, you find out Lu has recovered in time to be the backup.
Or..
Driedger and Bednard would be the AHL crew and Monty will be the backup to Bob.
Bednard can slide to ECHL I'd assume, Monty drops down if we are in the playoffs, enter Lu, back healthy and they let him play some of the final regular season games to get in game shape. Bob and Lu are the playoff goalies.
The versatility of Monty being able to still slide between the two teams helps big time. Gotta think they're high on him and his skills but need to get him 4-5 games once we're officially eliminated, which Tallon should know is possible with a loss tomorrow. Think we're sniffing 6% playoff hopes right now, no need to delay Monty's chance.
As for Brossoit, some WPG fans were saying they may not even re-sign him, which is very odd to me.
Some were happen when I offered a 2nd/3rd.
They may not have the cap room Helly is locked up, LB may be arbitration eligible so we can use your idea of offer sheet or he comes here in a bigger deal with Trouba for our 2019 1st + pick/prospect + 2nd + Reimer.
Exactly 4 months to go to find out what the 2019-2020 roster will look like. Tick tock tick tock. I just need + weather, this winter can GTFO right now!
