New Jersey has 2 studs in net right now. They are more likely to be a seller, not a buyer.
NYI: Wildcard. They have Nelson, Eberle, Lee and Lehner all UFA at the end of the season. My bet is that they stick with whomever takes the #1 job in net this year and run with them long term - Greiss or Lehner. However they have tonnes of cap room and an opportunity to really change the makeup of the team at the trade deadline.
Vancouver - yep. Good call. They will be buyers in the goalie market.

Philly won’t try Bob again;
Luongo isn’t leaving Florida so that salary isn’t going anywhere;
Vancouver is high on Demko, plus they aren’t in there contending window yet, they won’t move good assets for Bob.
NYI is probably the most likely destination for Bob.
