At Rinne’s age, Nashville would be looking for a huge return for Saros. Say goodbye to Valimaki and a first. Same with Columbus, Korpisalo is their backup plan if they lose Bobrovsky. Unless the extend Bob right away, Korpisalo is going nowhere. All the young, available, up and comers have been acquired recently. Grubauer, Raanta, Darling (up until last season) are gone. Pickard is a possibility but his stats are only slightly better than Gillies and Rittich (obviously larger sample size though). Save for a low chance of a huge deal involving Price, I think status quo is pretty much guaranteed. Make whatever sacrifices you need to the goaltending gods that Smith starts out like last year, remains healthy and that Gillies or Rittich cement their status as a quality backup 🤞🏻🤞🏻🤞🏻.
