He sure didn’t give off this vibe at his end of the year presser. 1 Quote

The team went after Hall instead of giving Reinhart a long term deal. 1 Quote

woods-racer Posted November 25, 2021 Report Posted November 25, 2021 If any GM starts throwing out half decent goalies for 4th rounders KA and 30 other GM's will be calling him in minutes. Quote

Flashsabre Posted November 25, 2021 Author Report Posted November 25, 2021 Dallas is in a pickle. They can’t bring back Bishop off of IR because of a cap squeeze. They have Oettinger playing well, Holtby playing well, Khudobin stinking and Bishop looking to come back. Something has got to give there. I would gladly take Holtby or Bishop over what we have. 2 Quote

dudacek Posted November 25, 2021 Report Posted November 25, 2021 Neither Holtby, nor Koskinen are good. Until you compare them to Dell. 5 Quote
Brawndo Posted November 25, 2021 Report Posted November 25, 2021 Jake Allen was also mentioned as a trade possibility by both Friedman and Marek. Any Goalie coming in needs to be better than Tokarski and Dell, not a high bar Quote

Expand I was looking at them too. They can't just stop playing Oettinger while he's hot. I'm wary that teams won't want to trade goalies this season with the uncertainty of Covid-19 but Dallas has a glut of them so hopefully they will let one go eventually. Quote

Expand If Dell had Tokarski’s .904 save % it would mean 4.5 fewer goals against in the games Dell has played. Maybe that equals 2-4 points in the standings from the Leaf and Ranger games. Jonas Johansson currently has a .905 save %. Quote

thewookie1 Posted November 26, 2021 Report Posted November 26, 2021 Koskinen is only good as a cap dump if we get assets to take him. Otherwise he’s as bad as Dell due to his proclivity to let in softies. Holtby was awful in Vancouver but has been good in Dallas. I’d guess he won’t do well in Buffalo because our defensive play is more akin to VAN than DAL Quote

On 11/23/2021 at 4:48 PM, In The Buff said: exactly! They knew what our goaltending would be going into this season & this is what they wanted. We're spending $2,127,500 on both of our goaltenders. Only Arizona spends less. You get what you pay for & this was a strategic decision. It'd make absolutely no sense to suddenly break from their plan & make a move for another goalie. Unless we're talking Kenny who works in the concession stand or some other scrub who'd cost peanuts. Expand I’ve seen what they charge for peanuts at Sabres games, and it’s outside of my budget. 1 Quote
GASabresIUFAN Posted November 26, 2021 Report Posted November 26, 2021 Our next goalie is going to be Anderson when he returns from injury. Hopefully he’ll last more then 6 games this time. Quote
