Thread: Pens trade SanJose
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>LetsGoPens69</b></div><div>Copy and paste from recent Hockey Writers articles.


Reimer is a pending free agent who makes $2.25 million against the cap this season. The 34-year-old holds no-trade protection against five teams; however, it’s extremely unlikely he wouldn’t be open to joining Sidney Crosby and the Penguins.

Reimer has posted a .908 SV% this season and in 48 games in 2021-22, recorded a .911 SV%, quite impressive considering he’s playing behind a struggling team. This trade wouldn’t be centered around Jarry, and instead, DeSmith would be the one heading south to California. He’s signed through next season at $1.8 million and could give the Sharks a steady option in goal as the team continues to work through the beginning stages of their rebuild.

The Sharks are open for business as the basement dwellers are looking towards the future. There’s certainly potential that any trade talks could materialize into a blockbuster as the Sharks don’t have many untouchables. Reimer is a prime trade candidate this season, even without a ton of Stanley Cup Playoff experience under his belt. He’s a savvy veteran who is a great personality in the dressing room and someone who won’t disrupt things if he’s not getting a ton of playing time or if things aren’t going well.</div></div>

This is a speculative article and nothing more. "The Hockey Writers" do not have sources, it's pure speculation. It's like reading something on hockeybuzz and taking it to heart.

Reimer will have plenty of potential suitors on the market. But the sharks are not taking back a goalie. We have one of the better goalie systems in the league right now and Dell would be called up to replace or even Makiniemi.

Thread: Crouse
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Lenny7</b></div><div>Yeah, I mean, I don't think he was ever fetching high value, but he's a fine piece in a trade (IMO). And, in fairness, his AHL production was just under a point per game between as an 18-20 year old. That being said, he's an undersized player who hasn't managed to stay healthy while playing against pros, and AHL stats mean very little (But you did mention production so I felt like I should point it out).

1st+Robertson brings back a solid player (IMO).</div></div>

I devalued him mainly due to consistency and injuries. Small guy, can't stay healthy that's a major concern for a lot of GMs. Like I said the talent and ability is there. If he proves he can play a stretch of games in the nhl while staying healthy and being productive he becomes a real trade asset. Until then he doesn't return much and Leafs would be wise to keep him.
