Gurn Posted January 30, 2022 Share Posted January 30, 2022 Unprotected? Maybe, but I'd be thinking on it for quite a while. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Alflives Posted January 30, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted January 30, 2022 Nope. With his contract, Demko is not replaceable. 2 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
-AJ- Posted January 30, 2022 Share Posted January 30, 2022 Unprotected, maybe, but only if we're at a place where we know we're out of the playoffs. If they're protected picks, then no. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post CRAZY_4_NAZZY Posted January 30, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted January 30, 2022 Not a chance. When you have a clear number one goalie, cost controlled, and someone who is now establish, you don't simply trade them for just a first round pick. 4 5 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nucker 67 Posted January 30, 2022 Share Posted January 30, 2022 No. Can't win without great goaltending. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
khay Posted January 30, 2022 Share Posted January 30, 2022 Nope for reasons mentioned before me. But also, we are not tanking/rebuilding. The team is too good to finish in the bottom 3-5. Retool shouldn't be too long and when it's done, we will need Demko. In fact, I think we can retool while being competitive. Just look at Tampa Bay Lightnings after St. Louis trade in 2015. Their young guys took a step and they were a powerhouse. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JustABandwagoner Posted January 30, 2022 Share Posted January 30, 2022 (edited) Unprotected to BUF HELL YEA. Imagine winning Bedard or Michkov. But again, demko would spoil us and get some undeserved points for BUF p.s. I would give up this entire team to draft Bedard or Michkov.

With the right moves, there's zero reason why we couldn't be ~ the same bubble playoff team, we already are, with the players some don't want to see moved, moved. All while improving our youth, speed, cap allocation, mid-long term competitiveness, etc, etc... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

beni Posted January 30, 2022 Share Posted January 30, 2022 Look at the teams around the league that struggle to get a clear #1 Goalie. Do you really want to join that list? No thanks. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
qwijibo Posted January 30, 2022 Share Posted January 30, 2022 Doesn’t work for anyone. A team like Vancouver that’s looking to take the next step towards being a playoff team can’t start over with no goaltender. Likewise a rebuilding team isn’t going to pay 2 very high firsts for a goalie. Goalies just don’t bring that sort of return. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yep - and for those who were around for the WCE era ... well really from early 90's McLean until Luongo...it's simply not fun without good - great goaltending no matter what else is going on. One Butcher like deal away from being a very good team right now. Lopsided ... but well one can hope. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
