And if thats the case, then trade for his rights and get this done. If you're going to argue that using a 5th or 6th round pick is stupid when you can just have him for free later, save it.

Reimer is the best option if every other GM insists on asking for exorbitant prices for their goalies, despite there being only one buyer. Far more likely that another GM caves before Treliving does, because I don't think that a goalie move will happen until the draft. We've a few days left of various media sources warmongering over Calgary's goalie situation until that happens, plenty of time for the other GMs to sweat it up.
