Duck Rodgers posted:How many goalies are available in the draft that are also waiver exempt? Probably none. The only way for Vegas to build there AHL team is through trades. Joonas Korpisalo is waiver exempt. I'd nab him, send him to Chicago and have Mrazek and Raanta as my NHL tandem.

Goddamn Petr Mrazek's cocky rear end. Why couldn't he be a model citizen like every other good goalie? For example: Patrick Roy, Martin Brodeur, Dominik Hasek, Ron Hextall, Terry Sawchuk, John Vanbiesbrouck, Tom Barrasso,

My favorite thing about goalies is they only ever fit in two categories. Fun loving goofball weirdos or the biggest rear end in a top hat for a franchise for generations.

You're forgetting the "possible serial killers" like Murray and Quick. Also Lundqvist fits into the "rear end in a top hat" category but he is also exclusively a perfect man.

Holtby is an outspoken proponent of LGBTQ rights so he's cool in my book, except for the whole falling apart against the Penguins this postseason. Maybe don't do that next year.

Yeah he was bad but he's not the first young goalie to take a step back after ripping up the league his first year or two. He has a .913 after 4000 NHL shots. Carey Price had a .912 at that point.

i am curious to see how good/bad maatta plays away from trevor daley who's historically been a huge drag fancystats-wise and only good in that regard last year when he played most of his minutes with brian dumoulin. i'm not expecting miracles but daley's not exactly the kind of steady reliable defenseman to prop up a shaky partner and give him room to make mistakes

Mage_Boy posted:Vegas also has to build their AHL team, so MAF let's them draft someone younger they can stick down in the AHL for a year or two. They actually don't really need to do that this year. They're partnering with the Wolves who sign a bunch of their own guys and, as far as I can tell, the Blues are also staying with the Wolves this year and they have a bunch of prospects that will be better and more AHL-ready than whatever the Knights get in Year 0.

If the Knights DON'T take Fleury, what will the Pens do? He doesn't want to be on a team where he can't be the starter so do they buy him out and trade him or does he stay and keep the 1/1A tandem that won them the Cup?

It would seem weird for an article like this to be written if they didn't know for sure he'd be gone. I mean, Sam Kasan isn't in the front office or anything, but if there was still doubt I'd think he would have written more "maybe"s into the article. "Fleury ended his Pens career by lifting the Stanley Cup."

It's also possible they convince him to waive for a trade but currently he has only allowed it for the draft.
