On the goalie front, I think you are underestimating the market as well. For example, Chicago is playing very well, but how confident are they that Emery and Crawford actually can get it done? See some shaky goaltending from them over the next month and you could potentially see Chicago showing some interest in an established playoff performer in that position.

You have correctly identified that it is a debatable topic on this message board. So yes, I don't see a high end prospect coming back for a rental player which is an opinion I put out in response to another poster's differing opinion. Why the need to point out that I'm not more right than anyone else? Obviously none of us will know with certainty until it happens.
I also don't think I'm underestimating the goalie market at all, but that's my opinion. Right now I don't see Chicago to be in need of a goalie. If their goaltending tanks over the next month then sure, they may be in the market, but I still don't think they're going to give up a high end prospect for that help unless that goalie is long-term.
