DeNiro Posted August 29, 2022 Share Posted August 29, 2022 Not much of an upgrade over Broisoit. I guess they’ll be going with a Hill/Broisoit tandem? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Devron Posted August 30, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted August 30, 2022 All I know is Vegas sucks. Can’t wait for them to suck this year. Can’t wait for Eichel to suck. And can’t wait for the coach to be fired. Good times ahead 2 3 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AB72 Posted August 30, 2022 Share Posted August 30, 2022 This is their idea of a starting goalie for the season? This seems like an oilers kind of strategy. I don't see this ending well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't see this ending well. I think they’re counting on Thompson being the number one. He’s looked good so far. Hill is insurance. Also. This should show how little value Depietro has. Hill is big and has decent NHL stats in 74 games. Depietro, not so much 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lol surprisingly they still have picks (only 2nd and 4th are gone from this year, and 4th from the year after).

Quantum Posted August 30, 2022 Share Posted August 30, 2022 I'm surprised VGK didn't wait until waivers and claim him then?!? Good on San Jose for getting an asset for Adin Hill. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bigbadcanucks Posted August 30, 2022 Share Posted August 30, 2022 Broissoit is coming off hip surgery, so the trade for Hill is insurance for the Knights. According to Kevin Woodley, goalie guru/writer, Broissoit wasn't on the ice in July at some "mini-camp" attended by a bunch of NHLers that he traditionally attends, so there's questions about whether he'll be ready for start of season. One of the three Sharks' goalies (Hill, Kahkonen, Reimer) would have been exposed on waivers (unless they were going to keep three goalies on opening day), so it looks like they settled on Kahkonen and Reimer. Getting a fourth round pick for a player they would most likely have lost on waivers for nothing is a win for the Sharks. It's conceivable that Hill will find himself on waivers if Broissoit and Thompson are the two guys the Knights go with, in which case, the Knights could very well have thrown a fourth out the window for nothing if Hill is placed on waivers and claimed. As much as I like Spencer Martin and am rooting for him, if the Canucks didn't have the Holtby and Halak salary cap baggage, I would be much more comfortable with Hill as a back up to Demko.

Smashian Kassian Posted August 30, 2022 Share Posted August 30, 2022 Another legit NHL body, but no upgrade. Thompson might be their best bet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
