And they had no cap room without knowing Lehner was going to LTIR for the year. They are screwed. Dipietro would be a good move. Or they could have Martin for a first and a top prospect. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Varlamov as per above. Raanta. Look at Ville Husso. It's not like there are only 31 goalies in the world. Not exactly my area of expertise although I imagine they will come up with something. Raanta would be a good option for them. I hope they have to overpay to get anyone, though. Whoever they do get, along with their shaky backup situation, likely won't be great for them to succeed, though. Here's hoping. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, I also wonder if Comrie, Francouz, Gibson, or Vladar are options as well. It's maybe even possible they stop gap the position and try to get someone close to the deadline depending on the season. But yeah, screw the f#$king Knights! 1 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hope that his life outside hockey is going well, as his career seems diminished by his injury woes; concussions stink. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MystifyNCrucify Posted August 15, 2022 Share Posted August 15, 2022 The team wont last through a rebuild, especially since they completely screwed themselves in year two and have literally nothing left for prospects or futures. Another nail in the coffin. Good. Hated them from day one. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why would it have changed anything? They were trying to clear Dadonov's 5M and that was their cheapest option to get rid of that contract. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They have a lot of cap room to find a goalie and fill some holes on their roster as a result of all that LTIR. Lehner is on his way out in Vegas, he is not the goalie of their future.

mll Posted August 17, 2022 Share Posted August 17, 2022 Just now, Toyotasfan said: They have a lot of cap room to find a goalie and fill some holes on their roster as a result of all that LTIR. Lehner is on his way out in Vegas, he is not the goalie of their future. Lehner's 5M but they don't have a starter anymore. They didn't gain any cap space by adding Weber - it's trading Dadonov that gave them 5M. Adding an LTIR contract is going to cost them cap flexibility and prevent them from banking cap space. They would have been significantly better off trading Dadonov without taking Weber back but the cost to dump that Dadonov contract was likely far too expensive. Regular roster + Ferland allows Vancouver to spend as high as 86M but Ferland can't play so they really only have 82.5M for their regular roster. It's the same for Vegas. Regular roster + Dadonov at 5M cannot exceed 82.5M. Remove Dadonov and add Weber gives them a regular roster up to 82.5M + Weber's 7.9M and a new cap limit of 90.4M but Weber can't play - their regular roster is still at most 82.5M but now they've cleared the 5M for Dadonov. They would have been at the same point without adding Weber - a regular roster of at most 82.5M. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

VegasCanuck Posted August 19, 2022 Share Posted August 19, 2022 With the announcement this morning that Price won't be able to start the season and very possibly won't ever play again, the cost of acquiring someone to replace Lehner, just went up.
