If we trade for a goalie, we'll have sunk assets into a player that we may then have to either expose to the expansion draft, or force us to expose Gillies.
Lucic - he's absolutely what we need. His size, skill and aggression fit what we need perfectly.

I don't get the Bishop and Andersson fascination either.
They are going to cost multiple pieces for us to obtain.
The UFA market is going to be soft for Reimer and he is a good goalie. .914 career save percentage on a terrible Leafs team, and he has looked great for the Sharks so far.
Still only 28 years old too so getting right into the prime age for a goaltender.
