Nobody would be surprised Markstrom has another off season next year and we're begging to get rid of him.

The fortunes of this team would change dramatically by adding a package anywhere close to that for an asset you thought 8 months ago was a liability.
It would be a bit disappointing, only because goalies don't have this type of value usually.

You don't get an opportunity like this to trade a 34 goalie having a bounce back season for what is reported to be a pretty nice package.

We just have to trust Conroy. He has done the right thing so far. Not giving away Lindholm got Vancouver to bite and send more our way.
