They have Forsberg (if you were to rank Korpisalo and Forsberg they'd be 2a and 2b on their depth chart), Dansk (Lock for the farm #1) and Merzlikins (turning pro this year and will likely back up Dansk). To me I feel like theres a good and far more reasonable trade scenario here than trying for Puljujarvi AND a goalie.

Say that does happen then you could potentially move Ortio + to Minny for Kuemper and run Korpisalo and Kuemper as the tandem this year.

Maybe I'm crazy.
I really doubt they trade Korpisalo. Getting Bob and his 7m off the books and run with Korpisalo and Forsberg long term would be much more appealing to them obviously.
