I agree though only if the re-up on Bobrovsky is reasonable; something like 5 or 6 years between 7.5/8.5 AAV

We would still have to clear out a guy like Frolik in the off-season but it’s definitely doable.. I think Bobrovsky/Rittich would be a great tandem to move forward with and makes this team even scarier than it already is.
I don't think you get that contract as a condition of the trade though. That seems like a pretty big discount from Bob considering the numbers that get throw around - so does he give a discount to a team he's unfamiliar with, and is clearly willing to give up a lot to have you on the team?

I think you have a chance at getting that after he's a part of this team doing something he sees has a future.
