Glad to hear I’m speaking with a member of the Minnesota front office who knows their plans for the next 2 years.

Giroux and Hamilton nixes this with NMC, and OTT would not be interested in Hamilton

He's probably not available, but man, I'd take this deal if I was Minnesota. The team isn't winning anything right now so you might as well get an extra 1st and just roll with Vanacek/Wallstedt next year and reassess where Wallstedt is after that.

I don’t think it’s even possible to win anything with 15 mill in dead cap from buyouts

I still think that Gus’s success is as much a product of the mn system as his own play. I think back in Ottawa or New Jersey with sub par defense he’d be much more human as a goalie.

Typically when it's the system, you don't have a situation where one goalie has a .921 sv%, 4th in the league, and the other has a .905 sv%, 39th in the league, in that same timeframe. Or one has a 30.9 GSAA and the other has a 1.7 in the same time.

If it was the system, those numbers would be a lot closer. Remember, they've played basically the same amount of games and minutes.

It's not the system.

But before the wild started playing a more sound system, werent both Gus and fleury bottom 5 in the league by that metric? Idk maybe I’m still jaded by the dubnyk dynamite season followed by 3 season bottom of the barrel tending.

Well if a team is playing like complete **** in front of their goalie, it's only natural a goalie is going to look much worse statistically. Look at Gibson in Anaheim. That doesn't mean the goalie is a product of a system though. I'm not saying Gus is Dominik Hasek here, but he's clearly an above average starting goaltender at this point.

Fully agree, I would just expect their combined numbers - vanacek/Gus to more meet in the middle after a trade like this vs stay so far apart. Which is probably worth the picks for nj. Plus the extra year of term. If I remember right Gus had 1 more year
