He's a semi-starter now and has a lot more potential to be a really good #1.
Not to mention this cripples the SJ franchise who has Dan Ellis and Ben Scrivens as their 2 goalies now. Makes no sense for Sj to be dealing Gibson.
I'm not going to get into what I would offer since I never made an offer cause he was never on the trade block.
Since you asked for a comparable I did some digging around. You can look at Varlamov, who was traded from the Wild to Canes in the summer of 2011.
To Canes: Varlamov
To Wild: Del Zotto, Fehr, 17th overall pick, Jared Knight
In the summer of 2011 Varlamov had previously played 59 games in 3 seasons so not a starter then, he was traded to Avs in the NHL. Del Zotto had established himself as one of the better offensive young dman (37 point rookie season and 11 point lockout shortened season). Fehr while battling injuries was still trending upwards. Knight was one of the better prospects in Bruins system and obviously the 17th.
I don't care you got a deal but as a new GM, Drury could've gotten more and puts the franchise in bad situation with no goaltender moving forward.
