Western Red Posted May 11, 2018 Share Posted May 11, 2018 Demko won't need 2 years. Marky is fine IMO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jaku Posted May 11, 2018 Share Posted May 11, 2018 Demko could be ready next year. If not then the 2019-2020 season. Plus he's not a free agent until the end of next season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Qwags Posted May 11, 2018 Share Posted May 11, 2018 If Demko wasn't in the system, or if Rinne was an UFA, then maybe. Otherwise, Benning should look elsewhere. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That would be a stupid trade????? He will be 36 in November and makes 7 million under contract next season... We have Markstrom and Demko... Demko will play 30 games next season.... Waste of money to sign a 36 yr old goalie... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
morrissex95 Posted May 11, 2018 Share Posted May 11, 2018 Maybe you should invest some more time into spelling the man's name correctly. Are you drunk or just lazy? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BowtieCanuck Posted May 11, 2018 Share Posted May 11, 2018 I would love to have a goalie of Rinne's calibur playing for the Canucks but I have a hard time seeing him leave Nashville. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phil_314 Posted May 11, 2018 Share Posted May 11, 2018 Agreed with the faith in Demko, he'll probably be ready by then. Also maybe DiPietro would be on the verge too (not many junior guys end up in a tournament with stars like he has in the World Championships, and pretty sure he'd be knocking on the big league door). Rather save assets to throw at a #1 D-man, and can probably sign an adequate goalie if need be. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JeremyCuddles Posted May 11, 2018 Share Posted May 11, 2018 Nilsson for Rinne straight up. They get cap and a backup, we get a goalie that can actually stop a decent amount of pucks. Honestly I don't see them moving him. But would be pretty nice to have a legit goalie to mentor Demko. No offense to Markstrom and Nilsson but, yuck.

He is mentoring Saros - even had him living at his place for a while. Too bad Miller wanted to be closer to LA. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

His stats indicate that he should be a middle of the pack back up Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
