Depends if the AHL veterans are worth having to provide mentorship to the developing prospects.

No team is trading for get four years of 3.25m cap hit that isn't justified now and will be bigger drag in the future. Jarry? He's a waiver wire pick up.

The Marleau comparison was made. Cost the Leafs a first for one year cap hit of 6.25m (actual cash 3m). Betcha the Canes wish they had never made that trade. Having cap space would be a benefit this season and the pick even if a good one is years away from being a productive Cane.

one can not argue this sort of ignorance. You must simply walk away and realize they are an idiot.

I think Jarry is a tough loss in JJ trade... but I mite be biased bc I am a Jarry fan and how athletic of a goalie he is.... I still think the kid has Starter potential but is stuck behind a 2-time Cup winner and a great back-up.

Thank You

Thank you for being completely and utterly wrong on every count?

Teams regularly scout each other. JJ is unlikely to be the target for the Avs. The Avs are loaded up with D who are as low quality as JJ if they're looking to temporarily cover injuries without having the salary hit for 4 years. From the small audition we saw last season with Graves I'd take him above JJ. That's in addition to the quality D they have. The blueline is nowhere near in a mess. No idea what planet you're on. The Avs are set in goal with Grubauer & Francouz and just picked up Bibeau to give cover so no, they don't really need a goalie. Especially not one that they likely lose on waivers. If the Avs want to get Jarry then they'd wait to try and get him off waivers themselves. Multiple teams may have been discussing a trade for JJ, I would doubt the Avs are one of them unless they are daft, or the Penguins are sending something with him that's a lot more interesting than the above. The only winner in this trade would be Pittsburgh. Younger D with the potential to become better for a deteriorating D who has never been great who costs more plus a goalie you're going to lose on waivers? Make any sense? Nope!

Jarry - A waiver wire Pick up ?? LOL

Well in September when the statement was made....might have been accurate. Couple months later obviously not. Even some of the Pens fans thought he was the # 3 to start the season.

I kno and meant no disrespect to u .... But I have been telling ppl for 2 yrs that Jarry will be a Starting NHL goalie, while getting lol at .... and was just going back to everyone to prove I was right , LOL.

If you're such a good pro scout on goalie.....maybe the Leafs should have signed you a few years and they wouldn't be having the problems they have now. Good call on your part on Jarry.
