Oof.

Markstrom for 10 is not happening
Markstrom for 10 + Mercer is definitely not happening

Markstrom retained plus VAN's first to move up to 10th might be in the ballpark but it could still require more to push a deal through.

If that NJ troll was right about one thing it's that a 34 year old goalie does carry some risk for the receiving team and value should be adjusted accordingly.

I think we all overshot on the perceptual value of markstrom based on his most recent play at the time. He sat out multiple times for maintenance last year, and the player isn't getting any younger.

Let's adjust our expectations now.
