I wouldn't mind being wrong here but man, that seems like you'd have to hope a GM went completely crazy to value an aging goalie that might only play for a year or two with your team that highly.
Well, it happens. Seems to be with some frequency too. Will the Flames finally be the ones to cash in ? That's a whole other thing altogether.

I can see NJ doing it. They need a bonafide starter. They know it, the whole world knows it. Up to them which way they go to address it.

My hair brained NJ deal is 10 and Holtz for a 50 percent retained Markstrom. A 3 million dollar Markstrom for two years has that value.
