Quoting: coga16
He has. .900 sv% This year, no one is giving a 1st rounder
For that.
So he was good and a goalie trade 6 years ago is your counter point? Not even close my man
Yeah and a week ago his save percentage was above .915 so he has a couple of bad games and now he sucks? He's won as many Stanley Cups as your entire franchise has and his playoff save percentage is .921. He's worth a 1st rounder and more given how young he is and his resume already. And I like how you use the Grubauer trade as an example knowing damn well that if Orpik's buyout wasn't a part of that trade you would've given up a 1st rounder but since you want to act like you're stupid here's a couple of goalie trades for draft picks from the last few years.
2017 -> NYR get: Anthony DeAngelo (struggling former 1st round pick), 2017 7th overall pick (Lias Andersson)
ARI get: Derek Stepan (50 point 2nd line center), Antti Raanta (28 years old, 47 wins, .917 career sv%, 0 stanley cups)
2016 -> ANA get: 2016 30th overall pick (Sam Steel), 2017 50th overall pick (Maxime Comtois)
TOR get: Frederik Anderson (26 years old, 77 wins, .918 career sv%, 0 stanley cups)
2015 -> OTT get: 2015 21st overall pick (Colin White)
BUF get: David Legwand (Cap dump), Robin Lehner (23 years old, 30 wins, .914 career sv%, 0 stanley cups)
I can give you a couple more if you want but I want you to tell me why you think Antti Raanta, Frederik Anderson, Robin Lehner, or Corey Schneider AT THE TIME THEY WERE TRADED deserve a bigger return than Matt Murray if you don't think Murray is worth at least a high 1st rounder
