    I’ll pass. He’d be .850 here and would cost us Pinto or Greig or Batherosn

    rofl, any Gm who trades a player of those caliber for G should be fired on the spot and blacklisted

    The team has been playing great in 2024. They've been the better team almost every night, they aren't winning **** with a goalie who gives up 5 goals on 20 shots against the ducks

    maybe, raanta at least has had 5 good years in north america and is signed to a 0 risk contract

    korpisalo has had 3 good years and is locked in for a half decade

    I always knew Sorokin was better.

    That said, apparently the Rags can’t play defence. Weird cause i was always told they have an elite D core featuring “Perennial Norris Candidate” Fox, blue chip stud Miller, 3rd pair steal in Gustaffson, and captain headshot Trouba.

    I always found it funny that the Kings thought they had their solution when they acquired him. Then Jarmo tries to pump and dump Elvis on a sucker this year too, but no buyers this time around.

    Haha if that’s the case then he’s a ranger for life. No one is paying that . Wouldn’t even part with any of those 3 pieces

    tbh if were talking Shesterkin, Batherson is 100% on the table. I get Pinto and Greig though.

    Aside from batherson, believe me, we would not be moved in the slightest if that’s the best thing you offer

    I'm kind of a Merzlikins believer tbh. I think if he could go literally anywhere else he'd be much better. A fresh start where he's not constantly reminded of what happened there would do him good.

    Maybe. But even before that incident he was trending down from his rookie season. It’s not the first time an elite euro goalie enters the league on fire, gets signed then gradually gets figured out by the League and numbers dwindle. Happened to Koskinen too. But let’s assuming Elvis issues are all related to the incident, even still you’d have to make a really big gamble to take him at his cap hit. And Jarmo was trying to sell him off like he wasn’t a gamble and was a bonafide number 1, has no biters.

    Idk, I just look at him and I see a guy with one season where he wasn't at least a league average goalie. Putting aside last year's outlier season, he's got one elite season, one really good season, one league average season and he's currently having another league average season. Idk maybe you see it differently, but a lot of teams could do worse than an average goalie.
