He's still going to be 30 soon after the start of the upcoming season.

I'd rather have a cost-controlled skater under control for the next 10 years than a goalie of that caliber. Not close really.

If that's truly the cost of goaltending, Treliving should just wait a year and pick up a goalie for peanuts before the expansion draft (which should already be hampering current goaltender values).
