Murray is probably going to need a minimum of $5 million AAV on a multi year contract, maybe even more AAV than that. Talbot will need $3 million AAV at a minimum and wants to be a starter.

1. That's too much cap increase on goaltending, something that wasn't a problem for the Flames really, with other more sever weaknesses needing upgrades

2. Neither goalie would want the other guy in the fold, and if you trade for Murray, Talbot likely doesn't come back.


I would also move Rittich and sign a cheaper back up if Murray was acquired.
