Doesn’t get you Gibson let alone Comtois too

Interesting. What’s his value in your opinion?

More than it makes sense for TOR to give up

Better off paying Campbell around 5M AAV and keeping the assets it would take to acquire Gibson

Would take a jaw dropping offer for ANA to trade him

Even if John Gibson were willing to waive for Toronto, And i doubt he is. That doesn't get him let alone adding Comtois to the deal.

He only has a 10 teams no trade list and make all the first round exit jokes you want, but I doubt an elite regular season team and huge market is on there. Could be wrong though, don’t know the guy

I’m just going off the Friedman report. I personally don’t think his trade value is as high as you think. He WAS arguably the best goalie in the league but he’s been below average for 3 years now. I understand you watch him all the time and see he still makes spectacular saves but there’s a reason he’s been reported to be available

As @Salzy has said, doesn’t make sense of Toronto to send over what it will take to wow Verbeek

Yeah 8 Canadian teams and 2 Americans he wont waive for.

Friedman is historically inaccurate when it comes to the Ducks, not everything that guy says is true

Last offseason and the season before it he was reporting Troy Terry was all but traded, he did the same with Comtois this past season and I can list more times he’s been completely wrong about the Ducks

The difficulty in evaluating John Gibson's trade value is the five seasons left on his contract. Either you believe that Gibson solves your goalie problem, or you don't; but if he does, that term is worth a significant amount. One year of Darcy Kuemper cost a late first, an A defensive prospect and a third; even if you consider Kuemper currently to be in better form than Gibson, it's hard to see how that return could be worth less than half of what Gibson would and should bring. Of course, half the Toronto fanbase, and half the Edmonton fanbase, think that "Gibson hasn't been good for three years." (Last summer, a couple of Oiler fans kept insisting that it made more sense to retain Mikko Koskinen than trade for Gibson.) In light of the undeniable fact that Toronto (and Edmonton) is a better team than Anaheim, I think that viewpoint is shortsighted.

The question will be moot if you can re-sign Jack Campbell, but if not, you'd better have a back-up plan.
