Thread: Gibson for Andersen
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>moli92</b></div><div>Probably not within 2 years but they already have a pretty good prospect pool right now so if they trade off some of their older/expiring players for assets to add to what they already have then i think in 4 years they could be back in the mix. They have a ton of prospects/rookies/young-players at forward (Zegras, Steel, Lundestrom, Comtois, Tracey, Jones, etc) and some ok D (Guhle, Mahura). If they trade guys like Getzlaf with 50% retained they can probably get a 1st or a good D prospect. They will also get a pretty good pick in this draft and have a decent shot at winning the lottery which would be a massive boost</div></div>

I have seen heard of their FW depth, shows promise.

Do you they have D depth???
I mean Lindholm is up in 2 years right? And Manson too, although he is looking like the Manson of the past.


Any goalie in their system to watch for?

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Sagecoll</b></div><div>Oh I don't mind the Grubbauer comp. Grubbauer was traded for a 2nd and Brooks Orpik. Orpik was an immediate buyout candidate making 7% cap hit on a 1 year deal. Conveniently, we know the cost of what buying out a 7% cap hit is. Marleau was just bought out from his 7% cap hit on a 1 year deal for a 1st round pick.

It's not at all a leap to then say Grubbauer was traded for a late 1st + 2nd in terms of value. (same as Andersen), And considering the cost of trading up from a late 1st to a mid 1st (what Schneider was traded for) is a 2nd at least then you could reasonably say that all Grubbauer, Andersen and Schneider were traded for a late 1st + 2nd. Jones is the outlier because he was only traded for a late 1st, which makes sense because he had wayy less of a pedigree than the other 3 goaltenders, including Georgiev.

Not sure what Bishop has to do with this.. he was traded as a 30 year old UFA making 6 mil...</div></div>

The trade was Grubauer and Orpik for 2nd, not Grubauer for 2nd and Orpik.

This indicates to me the value would have been less if Orpik was NOT a part of the trade, it was a 2nd rounder because of the cap dump.

Yes Orpik got bought out after, but that was not a part of the trade.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Sagecoll</b></div><div>Unclear what the points being made are here...

Anyway, to try and bring some facts here. If you're saying the only issue is Games Played well then it's not an issue...

Georgiev had 30 starts last year and is on pace for about 38 starts this year.

The 2 years before Schneider was traded: 28 starts and 30 starts
The 2 years before Andersen was traded: 53 starts and 37 starts (should probably note Andersen was traded for a 1st AND 2nd)
The 2 years before Grubbauer was traded: 19 starts and 28 starts
The 2 years before Jones was traded: 19 starts and 15 starts

So to emphasize your point. Georgiev was getting more starts than 3/4 goalies traded for 1st rounders. He's younger and just as good.

The value is at least a 1st...</div></div>

So you went back even further than Schneider and Andersen trades?
Those are just not gonna be recent enough.

Also, what was Schneider and Andersen ages when traded?
Not 23 right? Someone said Georgiev is younger.

Georgiev is a backup goalie.
