Do you think it’d be enough to add kerfoot into that trade to balance it out? I’d even take the 2nd off too realistically, seemed pretty crazy when I saw it.

You'd have to pay for a team to take on that Koskinen contract.

He's an average backup at best. And at 4 million it's a bad contract. It doesn't have a positive value.

Funny how wrong people are on this site. Koskinen is slightly overpaid but still an above average tandem goalie. Oilers aren't paying to move him. He had a .917 sv% in 38 games this year when Andersen only had .909 that rumour is so bad that guy shouldn't even have a job in sports media

He isn't even a backup dude.. Backups play like ~20-25 games max.. like Brossoit, Campbell, Subban, Dell those are backups.. Koskinen is easily a good tandem goalie and his stats during the season showed that

And a good backup can be a good tandem goalie. Koskinen didn't show well in the playoffs. Andersen is a major step up from him. I am not sure Koskinen would beat out Campbell in TO. He'd be another tandem guy there. Which may be okay but at 4 million that's a big risk in a flat cap scenario when Murray is also available and has proven to be a playoff winner at the least.

Jake Allen is far more accomplished than Koskinen and he would cost st Louis to move.

The point you are leaving out is the .889% in the playins. He had a good season but he has no record of success and hes 32. Hes a goalie whos record says you cant count on him when it matters most. The .917% is pretty much the high for Koskinen and you can expect him to get worse starting soon. Hes on a bad contract and his value is nil.
Meanwhile Anderson had 1 bad season but has a long track record of great goaltending behind a horrible defense and basically carried the Leafs on his back in the playins with his .936%. Hes shown he can still do it and hes younger. Theres no question who the more valuable goalie is between the pair and its not even close.

Yeah let's use a 38 game sample size vs Andersen's season. That is exactly how to make smart decisions. The outlier info is what is important.

Do these reporters/journalists if you can even call them that put any thought into their dumb trade ideas or do they intentionally put out bad ones cause they know it'll create clicks or do they actually think these are good for both sides or are they actually getting inside info and these trades are real possibilities that are being considered by teams??

I doubt that, the Blues would probably have to give him away for a mid to late round pick or a mediocre prospect but I don't think they'd have to pay to move Allen, he's a servicable backup/tandem goalie and some teams would probably like that he only has one year left therefore no longer term commitment like most of the UFA goalies are typically looking for.

Allen would be a good one year backup for a team like Montreal who has plenty of cap space and has Primeau waiting in the wings but he might need another year of seasoning in the AHL.

Who the **** is Travis Straub, and what the **** i sports media west. Neither come up when googling them. Disregard anything you heard from either of these entities as this trade is completely stupid for Edmonton.

Let me check the stats between the 2 goalies, oh wait a second, you would have to pay to take on Kiskinen contract, what does that say about Andersson

This rumor is from someone that knows nothing about the oilers, yes i saw it on facebook and Bouchard is not a tradable piece for us. He is exactly what we have been looking for for 20 years. Guy that wrote this rumor should think first before he writes

I showed Koskinen games because he was claimed as a "backup" backups don't play half the season. Why would the Oilers move one of their top prospect for a guy that plays 15 more games in a season but has a weaker sv%?. If Andersen is so ****ing good why is every 2nd Leaf fan trading him this week. Just for you I'll use Koskinen 55 game season last year with his .906 Sv% oh boy a whole 0.03 lower then your boy Andersen during his 52 game season this year. Toronto fans need to get over themselves and their team win a ****ing playoff round then maybe you can have an opinion.

So flat cap only matters in certain arguments. Okay good to know the rules.

I left out a 3 game sample size.. because its just that a 3 game sample size and if you watched the Oilers vs Hawks series you would know that most of the goals against were deflects, bad bounces and Teows or Kubilak left wide open like 15 feet from the net. I don't know if there more then 1-2 goals that would have been saved by a different goalie
