I agree that Frolik and/or Stone are the contracts we expedite in order to make room for a Tkachuk extension but I don't think signing Bob is realistic unfortunatly.

He wants Price money and no goalie is worth that, I don't care how good you are.
Will he get it? I am not convinced.

Heading into next year Calgary, Columbus, Colorado, Philadelphia, Edmonton, possibly Detroit or Vancouver will be in the market for a new starting goalie. Do you see one of these teams committing a $10.0 m cap hit on a long term deal to a goalie? I am not sure that I do. I agree that Bobrovsky will sign for more than $7.5 m, but I don't think any goalie is getting close to $10.0 m.
