It seems unlikely that we could make a major trade for a goalie this year because I feel like we'd have to move Smith as well or risk losing Rittich on waivers, not to mention create a further log jam.

If Smith continues to struggle Rittich will get the net.

If Rittich and Smith both struggle maybe we look at some options.

For me if we want to bring in a new goalie Schnieder might be the most logical.

I'm sure NJ could sign Kindkaid for cheaper than Schnieders $6m for the next 3 seasons after this.
