Maybe Nashville thinks Rinne can stop the puck until 40 and in that case extend him for the next few years. If they traded Saros I could see one of our goalie prospects like Parsons or Gillies and a pick going back. When Rinne finally falls off either of those two could be ready and they have an additional asset on top of that.
Seems like too much of a headache for Poile though when he can play it safe with Saros who has been one of the games top goalie prospects for some time, why create a problem in net when the solutions right in front of you.
