                  I'd say at least 90% of those Goalies aren't even available. Probably even more than that.

                  Not sure what NJDs cap situation is moving forward but I wonder if they could take a look at Price or Bob

                  37 goalies listed
                  4 of them are currently on the Devils
                  8 are UFAs
                  2 haven't been drafted yet

                  And a handful are cap dumps from other teams.

                  They could take either cap-wise.
                  I doubt Florida would move Bob yet.
                  Price would depend on trade cost.

                  I hope not. They're too old. Both mid 30s and won't won't fit the Devils timeline. Both also have long contracts with huge $ which is not ideal when there are better, younger and cheaper goalies available

                  I don’t think the devils should do anything too crazy at goaltending, both Blackwood and Dawes should start 1/3 of the games next year. Just a matter of finding a veteran that can be quality for the other 1/3 til Dawes or Blackwood take the job and run with it.

                  I don’t think the devils should do anything too crazy at goaltending, both Blackwood and Dawes should start 1/3 of the games next year. Just a matter of finding a veteran that can be quality for the other 1/3 til Dawes or Blackwood take the job and run with it.


                  Campbell
                  Blackwood

                  Roll into next year. Looks good

                  I'd say at least 90% of those Goalies aren't even available. Probably even more than that.


                  90%+ of these goalies not being available means that 34 of these goalies aren't available. Which is weird since alot of these goalies are UFAs or cap dumps so them being "unavailable" is stupid
                  Find something else to do instead of ripping on every ACGM

                  I hope not. They're too old. Both mid 30s and won't won't fit the Devils timeline. Both also have long contracts with huge $ which is not ideal when there are better, younger and cheaper goalies available


                  Demko, Oettinger, Knight, Askorov and Wallstadt those guys aren't even in the conversation. There's no way any of them are getting moved. Doubtful Seattle moves Grabauer. The UFA's could happen. Doubt even Binnington would waive his full NTC for New Jersey.

                  That's not 90% of goalies though right?
                  Guys like Samsonov, Petersen, Hill are definitely available
                  UFAs like Holtby, Koskinen, DeSmith, would be available in free agency

                  So where does the "90%+" come in? Or are you just hating on every ACGM like usual

                  I'm fine with any of the "Viable, options" except Grubauer and Petersen.

                  Would also at least talk to Kuemper if he makes it to free agency.

                  Would also add Fleury (he said he plans on coming back next season, though I can't imagine he'd pick us) and Driedger (he's been bad this season, like Grubauer, but his contract is a lot less risky).

                  I would be fine giving Blackwood one more shot. I doubt management will trust him thought

                  Maybe Varlamov as starter and Daws as backup

                  I didn't see Gibson on the list. Would be worth checking in with Anaheim to see if they would consider a trade

                  To Ducks
                  Blackwood
                  Smith
                  Prospect
                  2nd round pick

                  To Devils
                  Gibson

                  Personally I would take Mrazek off the list, he is not even NHL quality at this point.

                  I'd ask Toronto to give up an asset for Mrazek, then sign Husso.

                  Trading for Samsonov would be a good idea too.

                  That was the plan with Crawford and Bernier.
                  Didn't work out as well.

                  Also, I don't want Blackwood coming into season comfortable in his spot.
                  He's got to earn it.

                  Got a feeling Kuemper doesn't make it to UFA, but agree with you there.
                  As for Grubauer, I have hard time believing he has regressed that much in a season. Especially high number of odd-man rushes Seattle gives up. He could be nice buy low.

                  Gibson and Hellebuyck are my "white whales".
                  If they are available, we should have assets to obtain them.

                  Need to find the right younger version of those two, a underappreciated vet to come in and possibly take the number 1 gig as well. Like csick said Campbell/blackwood/Dawes or enter name there that still has the capabilities to take the number one gig and run with it. They were kidding themselves with bernier/Crawford.

                  Now just need to determine who is the younger version of Hellebuyck, Gibson
                  (Hopefully it’s Daws or Schmid)

                  Maybe.
                  I could see that.
                  Wouldn’t be top of list
                  But plausible.

                  I think Varlamov is a possibility - I would be surprised if he had the Devils on his NTC, considering he probably would only have to cross the GWB to get to Newark for home games. I'd be into building whatever package you think is necessary around a Varlamov for Ryan Graves trade.
