Will be interesting to see what money and term Halak comes at. Would Halak be willing to accept a one year deal?

Yes, he would command a decent salary. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He signed a 1 year contract last season so it doesn’t seem outrageous to think he’d do it again. 3 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’d say that’s a lot of games for a backup for a team with a clear cut #1 19 out of 56 games last season. That’s 34%. That translates to 28 games in a 82 game season 31/70 the season before snd 40/82 the year before that. That’s a busy backup.

On the flip side however, what would become of Dipietro is Halak signed a multi-year deal? Dipietro should be good to go starting in 22-23. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Then more than half can be sent to the minors if MD is ready early. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Coconuts Posted July 27, 2021 Share Posted July 27, 2021 Could be an interesting option if he's willing to take a reasonable deal, he'd be a solid backup Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's a winner, folks! 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FlyLow_ Posted July 27, 2021 Share Posted July 27, 2021 We shouldn't be paying a backup what Halak is probably going to get. Demko is getting paid 5 mill to be the guy. Let him be the guy. We should sign a backup for no more than 1 mill and use the rest of the cap space on defense. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think two solid goalies are needed in today's NHL to succeed, unless the goalie is an off the charts superstar like Vasilevsky. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's going to be tough to balance these differences. I think if Schenn can be had for a hometown discount, that would be fine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
