The beauty of this is that Portillo will sign elsewhere and in a few years, LAK will trade a 3rd for him again just to make him their backup for a year before he walks in UFA again.

D'oh. There goes my Portillo and Levi both sign and we dress 5 goalies dream.

Good trade though if he's going to UFA. Heck, we could still sign him in the offseason.

Now that we've got the 3rd we can trade it for Schenn. 

D'oh, again!

This reminds me of late in the 2011-12 season when we traded Gaustad before the deadline for a first on the last year of his deal.

I legitimately thought he could be coming right back.

Good.  Got something reasonably valuable for him.

And it's roughly equivalent to what the Sabres will get if Johnson doesn't sign.  Late 3rd in '23 is roughly the same value as late 2nd in '24.

I saw him up close in drills at Summer prospects camp at Harborcenter. Big but gave up rebounds. Didn't see "it" at all. 

Levi was quick and far better. No loss. He knew he wasn't wanted anymore.

Sounds like another UPL type then 🙂

KA states - "Clearing a path for Devon Sir! - Plan Levi a go!"

TP replies - "Very good soldier."

TP suggests - "Probably wouldn't hurt to get a defenseman or two to play in front of him"

KA replies - "I'll take that under advisement, Sir!"

TP replies - "Very well.  Keep up the good work soldier, carry on!"

And Moulson and Cody McCormick did.

It’s kind of interesting we dealt Gaustad at the deadline that year when IIRC we were still very much “in it”.

the “grey piping” on the sweaters era is sorta a no-man’s land era
