Thread: We Suck So Bad - Blow it Up
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Jrader17</b></div><div>I think for any Kuemper trade you need to use the Ryan Miller trade as an analog, Miller was actually 2 years older at 33 at the time but he was traded to St. Louis by Buffalo with Steve Ott for Jaroslav Halak, Chris Stewart, William Carrier, St. Louis' 1st round pick. Also Miller was a rental - Kuemper has another year at 4.5 so you're actually getting him for 2 playoff runs not just one. So if Miller fetched a young roster player in Stewart, a decent prospect at the time in Carrier (#57 overall pick) and a 1st... what would Kuemper get? Which is a long way of saying this is appropriate value for him. Also yes the Avs do need another goalie, Grubauer's stat's may look good but he's playing behind a juggernaut and the Avs of all teams should know what Kuemps can do. He's playing behind an absolute dog doo doo roster this year and is still top 6 in xGSVA.</div></div>

A trade from 2014 does not set the market in 2021, a trade that completly blew up in the blues face and didnt work and probably a reason why teams do not pay up for goalies..especially in season trade for one

Sorry but you aren't even close to being realistic here

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>bhavikp27</b></div><div>Difference is that Kuemper is a top8 G. Most available goaltenders on the "goalie market" are usually backups or 1B. There's a certain gap here. If Barron is projected to be a top4 D, it's a bit too much but I would think this is close to what ARI could get if they move Kuemper right now.</div></div>

Barron is projtected as a Top 4 D talent, he was a recent fist round pick, played at WJC for Canada, lighting it up against in the Q. Hes a smooth skating puck moving Dman, easy top 4 talent.

When you look at all the stats, SV% GAA% GSAx Grubi is better than Kuemper, that is the point of all this. Why are you giving up a 1st and Barron for not even upgrading your goaltending position?
Kuemper is fine but hes not at this elite level he was last year, he is coming down to earth more this season, his numbers arent as strong
