Thread: Deadline Day VGK
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Garak</b></div><div>I'm not over exaggerating, though. Stalock is a better and cheaper backup than Hill. As an expiring UFA, Hill is worth nothing to CHI, and as a rebuilding team, he is worth nothing to our rebuild. So, why are we giving up a cheap G that is playing really well this season plus a 3rd round pick, for essentially nothing? There is no exaggeration, its just the truth.

Also, it's not like we would resign Hill and we probably wouldn't be able to flip him for anything, let alone anything worth while. We have Mrazek under contract next year, and one of our "goaltenders of the future" is set to move to the NHL ranks full time as soon as the end of this season or beginning of next season.</div></div>

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Garak</b></div><div>Think of it this way: That proposal has chicago handing VGK a substantial amount of cap flexibility, a goalie who is playing very well this year, and a 3rd round pick, for a goalie who has been massively underperforming, costs almost $3M, and is a UFA at the end of the season. Which means they are essentially handing VGK Stalock and a 3rd for nothing.</div></div>

You completely ignored the fact that I was responding to this line " for a goalie who has been massively underperforming". Chicago can keep their 35 year old goalie because it makes sense for them with a goalie coming up in their system.
